Question 2: What is the cause of heel pain? Heel pain is an orthopedic disease caused by the imbalance of muscles and ligaments attached to the plantar surface of calcaneus, which leads to the pulling of periosteum. Modern medicine calls it "calcaneal periostitis", also known as "calcaneal spur".
Treatment should be suitable for liver and spleen, dredge meridians, dispel cold and remove dampness, promote blood circulation and relieve pain.

Question 3: What is the general disease of heel pain and what causes it? Heel pain is mostly related to the following diseases:
1, plantar aponeurosis: plantar aponeurosis has the functions of maintaining normal arch, buffering vibration and strengthening bounce. Long-term walking and excessive load will cause aponeurosis strain, leading to local aseptic inflammation and pain symptoms, often concentrated in the aponeurosis starting point of calcaneal tubercle.
2, plantar fasciitis: It is caused by excessive compression of plantar fascia. Plantar fascia is the fibrous tissue that runs through the sole from heel to forefoot. Plantar fasciitis may also cause heel pain, arch pain and heel spur. Patients with plantar fasciitis are usually injured in the group (the part between calcaneus and arch of foot). The pain of patients with plantar fasciitis usually occurs in the first step after getting up in the morning or after a long rest.
3, heel pain: often occurs in the elderly. Heel pad is an elastic pad formed by adipose tissue under calcaneus and elastic fibers separated by fibrous tissue. In youth, the heel pad is elastic and can absorb shock. When people reach old age, the elasticity of heel pad decreases, and the calcaneus bears the weight without pad. In severe cases, scars and calcium deposits will be formed, causing heel pain. Unlike foot pain and plantar fasciitis, there is tenderness under the whole heel.
4. Peritendinitis of Achilles tendon: The tissue around the tendon at the attachment of Achilles tendon is inflamed due to trauma or strain, causing swelling and pain of Achilles tendon. The patient's achilles tendon is thick and tender.
5. Achilles tendinitis: Because the calf gastrocnemius and Achilles tendon are under too much pressure during exercise, such as playing basketball. In addition, the sudden increase of exercise intensity or frequency often causes tendinitis. If treated in time, the recovery time of achilles tendinitis is generally short. However, if left untreated, achilles tendinitis may cause persistent pain or rupture of achilles tendon. If this happens, surgery may be needed to repair the damage.
6. Posterior calcaneal bursitis: The bursitis most likely to occur between the achilles tendon and the skin is caused by friction damage caused by inappropriate high heels. The wall of synovial capsule can be thickened, the capsule is filled with synovial fluid, and it is swollen and tender locally.
7, calcaneal spur: more common in elderly patients, X-ray film shows that calcaneal tubercle has different sizes of spur formation. Bone spurs are not the direct cause of pain, but raised bone spurs are more likely to cause friction and strain on local tissues, resulting in aseptic inflammation. The degree of heel pain is related to the severity of local inflammatory reaction, but not directly related to the size of bone spur. But not all heel pain is caused by heel spur, but heel spur will definitely cause heel pain.
In addition to the above common diseases, calcaneal fracture may also cause heel pain, so everyone should seek medical treatment immediately after the symptoms of heel pain appear, and then find out the causes before symptomatic treatment. In addition, women may have heel pain during pregnancy, which is related to weight gain. As long as they pay more attention to rest, they should be treated with "calcaneal prescription"
Question 4: What are the causes of heel pain? (1) Heel pain is because the heel bears the burden of heavy objects for a long time.
Causing heel pain. The reason why heel pain can cause many people's troubles is mainly because the painful part is the sole of the foot, which is necessary in our daily activities. Therefore, this disease also occurs in people who have to stand or walk, run and jump for a long time every day and in other different jobs or occupations, such as teachers, hair salons, factory operators, soldiers, track and field and ball games, surgeons and so on.
(2) Low back and leg pain
Many people's heel pain is due to the increase of age, and the cauda equina nerve in lumbosacral region is deformed due to the degeneration of the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae (i.e., hyperosteogeny), resulting in the "jumping pain" of R20 and discomfort of lower limbs. The initial performance is sole pain of the whole heel, and in severe cases, it will be accompanied by symptoms such as half hip chills, unconsciousness, numbness of the lateral thigh and numbness of the calf.
(3) Traumatic heel pain
When walking, the heel steps on a hard object or touches the ground too hard, which will cause tissue damage of the heel and cause pain, which is also a common cause of heel pain.
(4) Heel pain caused by bone spur
When calcaneal spur (hyperosteogeny) is formed, repeated squeezing can cause local inflammatory reaction and induce heel pain. Heel spur is not a common cause of heel pain.
(5) Chronic heel pain
Heel pain may also be caused by a variety of chronic diseases, mostly occurring in obese men after middle age, with one or both sides occurring at the same time. The common causes are: inflammation or atrophy of heel fat pad, plantar fasciitis, calcaneal bursitis, calcaneal hypertension, osteoarthritis, achilles tendon synovitis, calcaneal fat pad degeneration and so on.
Daily exercise and nursing care of patients with heel pain
1. Contraction exercise, patients with heel pain can stand facing the wall, keep balance with both hands on the wall, then stand on tiptoe, then put it down and practice repeatedly.
2. Toe sit-ups can strengthen the muscle tissue of the soles of the feet. What about heel pain? I can sit or lie down.
3. At ordinary times, we should develop good foot hygiene habits, wash our feet with warm water every day, keep our feet clean, have good blood circulation, reduce local inflammation, and contribute to the health of our feet.
4. Daily maintenance can only play a role of relief. It is recommended that patients still use traditional Chinese medicine ointment and follow the medical advice of ancient prescriptions.
Question 5: What is the reason for the pain in the left heel? It's the reflex zone of the kidney, which is generally fine, which may be caused by insufficient rest.
