Heel Spurs, Heel Pain and Fasciitis The Causes and the Treatment

The plantar fascia becomes inflamed if the foot pronates or rolls over too much and stretches out the PF too much. This causes inflammation where the PF is attached to the heel. The PF actually starts to pulls away from the bone and this is what causes the pain. One way that the body protects itself against this pulling away from the bone is to build up more bone in that area. The resulting build-up of bone is called a bone spur. A bone spur in-and-of-itself sounds painful but usually it is not what is causing the pain. If you have ever seen a bone spur on an x-ray it looks like a horn of bone growing out from the bottom of the heel. When you see this on an x-ray you wonder how anybody can walk with a heel spur. However many people have heel spurs on x-ray but have no heel pain. The heel pain associated with plantar fasciitis comes from the tearing away of the fascia from the bone and not the bone spur itself. https://untappedreviews.com/arctic-blast-reviews/
