There are contraindications. Consult your doctor.

content auto translated from {from}

Burdock Leaves: Heel Spurs can be effectively treated using fresh burdock leaves. Every evening, apply a burdock leaf to the heels, securing it with a rag and plastic wrap. The procedure should be carried out for at least 10 days, leaving the compress on overnight. Over time, the spur should disappear.

"Night Blindness" or Buttercup: To eliminate heel spurs, take a bunch of herbs, brew and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Then pour the broth into a basin and steam your feet until the water cools down. It is recommended to do the procedures every other day or daily, depending on your capabilities. Usually, 7-15 sessions are sufficient.

Honey, Iodine, and Salt: This recipe will help with heel spurs. Mix one tablespoon of honey, one bottle of iodine (50 g), and one teaspoon of fine salt "Extra". Apply the mixture to a cotton pad or bandage, place it on the heel, and cover it with plastic wrap, securing the dressing. In the morning, leave the dressing for 15 minutes, then remove it. This method is intended for 5 applications, after which you can get rid of the spurs. It is recommended to repeat the treatment after six months if the spurs reappear.

Cabbage and Honey: For treating heel spurs, use a cabbage compress. Apply a teaspoon of honey on a small cabbage leaf, place it on the heel, and secure it well. The procedures should be done overnight at least 3 times.

Herbal Baths and Fly Agaric: Brew wormwood, nettle, burdock, and mullein, then soak your feet in this solution. Treatment may take up to a month, but the spurs will disappear forever. Fresh fly agarics can also be used to alleviate the condition.

Lard for Treating Heel Spurs: Melt 100 g of old lard in a frying pan, add a raw chicken egg, 100 g of vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of honey. Let it steep for 48 hours. Then steam the affected leg and apply a compress at night. For better effect, you can sleep in a sock. The spur should go away within a week.

Vinegar Essence for Heel Spurs: Steam your feet in hot water with household soap, dry them, and rub the affected areas with vinegar essence. 3-4 night sessions are sufficient. Always iron socks after washing with a hot iron, and disinfect your shoes with formalin solution. This recipe will also help with calluses.

Fish: For people suffering from foot pain and heel spurs, a folk remedy is recommended - take fresh or frozen fish, remove the large bones. Mash the fish by hand into a paste and put it in plastic bags, then wear them on your feet. You can wear socks or leg wraps on top to avoid staining the bedding. It is best to carry out this procedure at night, leaving it for 8-10 hours. In the morning, remove the compress and rinse your feet with warm water. Discard the fish and repeat the procedure for 7-10 days.

Insole for Spurs: To reduce pressure on the heel, use special gel insoles in your shoes - they will significantly ease your condition.

Exercises: To combat heel spurs, roll a special rubber ball with your entire foot back and forth and in circles.

The doctors said to wait until the thorn bends, then it will get easier, but by the time it bends, you'll be bent over in pain yourself!

Anna

I've tried many of the things mentioned here, but nothing helps me.

Anna

The spur has been tormenting me for 6 months already. I’ve undergone shock wave therapy, laser treatment, and they don’t recommend injections, saying that it only temporarily relieves pain. I want to say that neither bile, nor poultices, nor wrapping, nor anything else helps. I even tried spells for spurs, all nonsense, the only thing left is to undergo radiotherapy. I understand that the shock wave therapy was done incorrectly based on the videos where experienced doctors from the Bubnovsky clinic perform the procedure; they pressed very hard, which was unbearably painful. It is awful to endure this pain daily; help me! I wouldn't want to be exposed to radiation.

Rozaliya

Of all the tips mentioned above, I read about the hammer.. My grandmother got rid of her spur this way, my uncle also suffered, he tried everything, pills, ointments, etc., and then remembered my grandmother's hammer, he started tapping on his heel, sat down to watch a movie and quietly tapped on his heel... I don't know how long it took, but he knocked out that spur, now he runs! And now it's my turn, my heel hurts, it's impossible to stand, I've been tapping quietly for three days and it really is easier, of course, without fanaticism, but I endure it because even a light tap caused pain.. Some may find it funny, let them laugh, when something hurts, you believe in God and the devil ☺☺, so you can give it a try. Don't get sick!!!

Nastya

The recipe with vinegar and egg for steaming the foot helps. It works!!!

Sasha

Hello! Fasciitis is essentially the deposition of salts on the heel bone. Salts accumulate in our bodies everywhere. And chondrosis is also this salt deposition. Are there really no medications that break down and remove salts from the body..???

Tatyana

After reading numerous pieces of advice from you, I realized that many do not understand what exactly they are treating. A heel spur (often referred to as 'spur' due to misunderstanding) is much easier to treat - the outcome of the treatment is about the possibility of digging out and pulling out the root, the uterus, a bunch, or whatever else they call it. A spur (deformation of the heel bone from a bone growth) does not split, dissolve, and certainly cannot be pulled out - it is permanent, and if the treatment helped, it only means that the inflammation has subsided and the sensations in the nerve endings have dulled. The spur itself will never go away, but if not advanced, the treatment may help; for some, losing weight may help. Doctors treat it with medical bile, physiotherapy, intra-articular injections (Diprospan), radiation therapy - all of this I went through - three years without a day where the pain subsided. Diagnosis: spurs across the entire sole of both feet and the formation of Achilles - the result of drastic weight loss to big figures, followed by overeating and returning to those figures.

Sorry. How long does this procedure take? Thank you

Vera

I read and read and decided to write to help EVERYONE who suffers. I will tell you 100% about the treatment for heel spurs. You buy aviation kerosene. Boil potatoes in their skins (the larger the better). Take a basin, place the hot potatoes in it, make a depression, pour kerosene into it, and place your heels in. You will feel the effect immediately. The kerosene penetrates deeply and breaks down the growth. I repeat, the potatoes must be very hot. If they cool down, take another one. Do this every day. Morning and evening. And everything will pass for you. I wish you all good health!!!!!!

Lyudmila Shlykova Primorsky Krai

Usually, the exit is where the entrance is. Everything starts with nutrition; it needs to be adjusted. This is not so simple because natural products are hard to obtain even in one's own household – feed and seeds are modified. Moreover, flavor additives in prepared food have dulled our sense of taste. But we need to try to bring everything back to normal – using the means available to us. We must endure and work for ourselves. Hitting a raw nerve is definitely tough. Are we masochists? They probably don’t even know that there are nerves besides the calcium growth. This torment will come back to haunt them.

Lyudmila

It would be terribly fun to read all these methods ...if it weren't for the sadness from the pain ......

Ruslan

Grate some soap and soak it in hot water for 10 days; it helps. Try it, I forgot what a spur feels like. Good luck.

Galina

The doctor recommended laser therapy with an injection in the heel and making custom orthopedic insoles.

Zhyldyz

Dear all, only orthopedic insoles made for your foot! Everything else is just nonsense! The price for each pair of insoles is 40 bucks. And wear them constantly, you'll feel the difference on the very first day!!!

Vittorio

First of all, a heel spur is inflammation or, in other words, plantar fasciitis, which usually occurs as a result of salt deposits on the heel bone. And this is really not a corn on the heel - it's much more complex and very painful! What nonsense is being written here, utter nonsense!!!! Initially, get biochemical blood tests, urine tests, make an X-ray of the feet, consult an orthopedic doctor, and then an orthopedist! Don't listen to any nonsense, no stars and no gimmicks will help here!!! Only through an orthopedist, order insoles specifically for your foot and wear them! Nothing else will help, believe me.

Vittorio

nothing is helping for now

Hope

You need to apply juice from the root of the chelidonium to the affected area. Wash the root in water to remove the dirt, break it, and apply the fresh juice. It also helps with warts and papillomas. I have tried it myself. Wishing you health.

A special touch.

Spurs are not calluses as some think; spurs are deposits of salts on the heel bone and no remedies help here. I had spurs on both heels and GOT RID OF THEM by soaking my heels, and then I hit the bottom of my heel with a roller. The pain is horrible, simply unbearable, but I hit as much as I could tolerate. THE RESULT: THE SPURS BROKE. I think no one can get rid of this with remedies. MAYBE THIS WILL HELP SOMEONE.

Olga

Want to get rid of heel spurs? Start running barefoot or in tennis shoes - it will be very painful, but that's the only way you will get rid of them (everything else is just a temporary effect) - and keep your feet warm!

Alexa

I applied it with a star yesterday. I slept like a baby. Simple and effective. Thank you!

Asiya

My advice to all of you is simply to type DEMIKSID FOR PLANTAR FASCIITIS and choose a recipe to get rid of this terrible condition. Trust me, I have eight years of experience with this ailment.

Tatyana Kiyakh

Dad had a heel spur: he underwent several sessions of ultrasound... useless... then they prescribed laser treatment.. several sessions.. the spur was shattered... everything went away

me

I suffered for 3 months... eventually found relief with the following:
1. Gel "Piatkashpor" (enhanced) - 2 weeks. Prepare yourself for the fact that in 3-4 days you will be unable to walk... but then after another 3 days you will feel a sharp improvement. The gel is made from cattle bile. You could probably use bile directly (it's 100 rubles cheaper), but I was afraid to burn my heel. In 2 weeks, I used 4 jars of the gel (1 jar costs 350 rubles). By the way, it turned out to be difficult to find even in Moscow; it's rarely available. I ordered it online.
2. I bought silicone heel pads. You can also use insoles, but good ones are expensive.
3. After using Piatkashpor, I started using the foot cream "Golden Pumpkin and Corn Oil" (manufacturer - "100 Recipes of Beauty"). I still use it. Besides getting rid of the spur, I eliminated a deep crack on my heel. The cream is just wonderful; my feet are like a baby's now. But the result only appeared after a month.
As a result of everything I went through - I forgot about the pain and now run like an antelope:))) I wish the same for everyone!!!! Of course, everything is individual. But I hope that my experience will be useful to someone. Yes! And get rid of flat-soled shoes!!!

I placed a copper plate under my heel. I felt relief after 3 months. After 6 months, the pain completely vanished. I constantly wear copper plates. I forgot about the spur.

Valeryan

It all started with silly ballet flats, don't wear flat shoes!!! Transverse flatfoot appears, and then a spur. Three years ago it was treated at the clinic, it quieted down. Now my left heel hurts again. Plasters - nonsense

margarita

I propose my recipe, tested on myself. A bottle of pharmacy alcohol, a bottle of iodine +10 tablets of analgin (crushed into powder), all thoroughly shaken. Then soak a cotton pad, apply it to the heel overnight, wear a plastic bag, and a sock to secure it until morning. After a few procedures, you'll forget about the spur.

Valentina

I suggest a recipe that I have already tried: 10 tablets of aspirin - crush them, pour in 250g of vodka, shake it, it will be a suspension. Let it infuse for 1-2 days. Then, at night, moisten 2 cotton pads (not too much) and apply them to the heel, put on a plastic bag, a sock, and leave it on until morning. Even after the first session, you can already step on your foot in the morning. I continue the treatment up to 10 times. I feel relief.

Amina

If you read everything, I got off lightly in April 15 after a run, and it started - I took a picture, the surgeon said spur and it will grow, etc. To be honest, I was a bit scared, since my job requires me to be on my feet, after more than an hour of limping I needed rest. I don't know, but I bought a bicycle and after two weeks of riding, as walking was very difficult, improvement started. I began digging on the internet and ultimately settled on foot massage with rollers and using a rolling pin while lying down. I started training (a little) all the leg muscles through the pain at the beginning of August with diclofenac tablets, and oh miracle on August 10 I ran 2 km, and the next morning after 5 minutes of massage I could run like a saiga all day (of course, a little discomfort is felt, but the main thing is that strength returned to my leg). In short, from April to August, I dealt with 5 months.
My partner, who had pain in both legs, was cured with laser treatment and cattle bile.

Sergey

shoes are an operation that 100% was done in China, Hunchun. Igloanosh helps, you just need to maintain a bed rest.

Sveta

a tablespoon of ammonia and a tablespoon of flour knead, roll into a flatbread, grease the heel with vegetable oil, apply the compress

light

My big toe on my left foot hurts. I had an X-ray and the doctor said it's a spur. I haven't slept in a week, please help.

Lyudmila

Eight years ago, I suffered from a heel spur and was recommended for a blockade, but I just started using magnetic insoles and wore them all day at work. The pain gradually began to weaken and then completely disappeared.

Galina

In a frying pan, heat coarse salt well, pour it into a pre-prepared cloth pouch or even just into a dense cloth. Tie it up so the salt doesn't spill out. I simply cut the toe parts off of old socks. Then, it's best to place the pouch with salt in a basin, with the tied end facing down. Pour a spoonful of kerosene (available in hardware stores for lighting work) directly onto the cloth (on the pouch's fabric). Then place your heel on the kerosene spot. Press down well. Hold it for at least 20 minutes. You can gently move your heel if it burns too much. The reason for the pouch in the basin is to avoid soaking the floor with kerosene, as it has an unpleasant smell. Use 2-3 tablespoons of salt. It helped me and many others. Be sure to use a new pouch and cloth each time. I can't even remember how many times I've done this, probably 4-5 times. It was a long time ago. I want it to help someone else too. Good luck!

Tatyana

continuation ..... because all these self-reliant tricks only numb the pain, while the exchange of substances is reduced or fails, everything returns to square one, but with greater force because age brings along all the diseases

Larisa

Plantar fasciitis and heel spur are not the same thing. Pain-relieving injections and tablets reduce the inflammatory process, but only temporarily. Of course, excess weight is not beneficial. On the advice of a surgeon, I had an injection in my heel, right at the most painful spot (Kenalog 40). Then, for three days, a STRICT rest mode is required, and you need to order orthopedic insoles.

Tamara

Thank you, friends, for the advice!!! As I was reading, I sympathized (since I also suffer from this and fight it) and laughed heartily. But I will never use triple cologne (only if it's awarded), and drinking urine is out of the question; the smell from a person drinking it is awful. They might not even notice. I grated raw potatoes and put them on my leg - it helped, but you have to do it every day or at night. If you don't, the pain comes back. Now I'm thinking of adding dry mustard, honey, or red pepper to the potatoes. I'll try to make it more varied... I wrote down more than 20 recipes. I will definitely defeat this trouble!!! I wish you only VICTORY!!! As for medicine, they have their own solution - injections, but they say it's very painful, and I'm scared. Health to ALL!!!

My mom got rid of her heel spurs with rosin; she couldn’t even put her foot down, she tried everything. She crushed it into powder, sprinkled it on cellophane, tied it to her heel, and wrapped it with a cloth. The rosin turned into oil, and once it absorbed, it became light. She did this several times. She walked like this and the spurs came out. Then she squeezed them out. For a year, she hasn’t known what they are. Try it.

Oksana

You can get rid of warts quite easily! Buy millet, preferably not clean - the yellower and dirtier, the better, and while sitting in front of the TV, soak your feet in the dry grain. That's all!

Lyudmila

I heat salt, pour it on a towel, and place my feet on the salt, periodically until it cools down, then I apply a heel spur treatment, wrap it up and lie down. It feels a bit better, but I want to try household soap.

Lyudmila

To everyone suffering from heel spurs, good day. Today I feel much better; starting today, I'm stepping fully on my entire foot... Since the New Year, my heel has hurt a lot. I went to the surgeon, and the X-ray showed two spurs right away. The treatment involved ultrasound, medical bile, NUGA BEST appliances, and baths with sea salt. Yesterday, I melted household soap, as mentioned in folk remedies, after a baking soda bath. I made a compress with the soap for the whole night, and today I've been walking normally for about three hours—I can hardly believe it helped; my mood has lifted...

Lyudmila

Hello, fellow sufferers!!! Be patient!!! This condition is such that it manifests differently for everyone. And it needs to be treated over a long period. Warm up, steam, massage, apply compresses. All of this greatly alleviates and relieves pain. And don't be lazy. It eventually goes away on its own when the inflammatory process subsides.

Nina

The pain goes away for a while if you massage the heel, but the massage needs to be strong. I hit my heel with a wooden mallet, it was very painful. This way, the growth breaks down, then the salts dissolve and the pain goes away. But after a while, the pain returns...

Alesya

Hello everyone, does anyone have a friend with a heel spur? I had one go away, but another one is still on my left foot. I've been suffering for three years now; physiotherapy and tablets didn’t help. The first injections I had two years ago helped, but now the injection in the left foot isn’t helping again. I will try other treatment methods. My job requires me to be on my feet all day, and when I get home, I'm exhausted from the pain. God bless everyone to get rid of their spurs.

Vera

The photo showed spurs. I'm saving myself with the use of an orthopedic roller, walking on a mat, and I'm 'torturing' Shuboshi-comfort slippers. I'm trying not to get discouraged, I will connect some of my favorite recipes! Good luck to everyone!!!

Larisa

I've been feeling a wild pain for half a year now. Yesterday I had a diprospan injection with lidocaine, it helped my mom, but not really for me. I will try five spur and star. God willing, it will help!

Tatiana

For about three days now, my heel has hurt, it's painful to walk in the mornings, but later I somehow manage to walk around. For three nights, I massaged my heel with diclofenac gel. The pain went away.

Rashid

Hello everyone, I also have pain in my left heel, it's awful. I spent a year looking for the cause of the pain, wasted a lot of money and nerves, tried various remedies and had physiotherapy 8 times, it helped for three months, now I have terrible pain again, I don't know what else can help.

Maria

I completed a course of 8 sessions of UHT, but it didn’t help. The pain is alleviated by the simplest remedy – warming with an electric heating pad. I hope my advice helps someone!

Lyudmila

For a month I suffered from pain in my heels - I thought it would go away on its own, as it always does. It didn't. The doctor said spurs. I accidentally stumbled upon a "Nuga Best" salon near my house - something like free physiotherapy salons aimed at the idea that you'll buy their equipment later if you like it (or if they persuade you - they really know how to talk). Their device for the legs called "second heart" helped me a lot - you stand for 12 minutes, alternating 2 minutes on seemingly hot and cold stones. The pain in my heels disappears as if by magic. I won't say it cured me completely, but after using it about once a day for a week, the morning pain is gone for good. You walk for about three hours, and your heels start to hurt again, but I suggest trying it as an option. I've been practicing for about three weeks, and I believe it will help - the trends toward improvement are clear. I feel like I need to combine it with some kind of softening compresses.
The surgeon prescribed: Dimexide 1 tablespoon, room temperature water 100 ml, novocaine 0.5% 2 ml (1 ampoule), analgin 50% 1 ml, Dexamethasone 0.4% 1 ml --- Mix, apply a compress to the clean joint for 1 hour. For 10 days. But I haven't tried that yet, I hope to overcome it without medication. And the heel lift recommended buying in an orthopedic salon to relieve the heel.

I hope this helps someone.

You can't do without an injection, it's true that it's very painful, but it's effective. I've been pain-free for three years if the injection is done correctly and hits the pain point.

Olga

Yes, I liked the article, thank you very much, I will try to apply some things, and I will leave the injection as a last resort

Zinaida

By the way, urine helped me a lot. I drank the morning midstream and did foot wraps at night: I soaked 2 cotton pads in evening urine, pressed them against my heel, tied them up, wrapped it in plastic, and put on a sock. On the third day, everything was gone! Just in case, I will do it again today. I want to secure my success. Touch wood...

Tatiana

After treatment for a spur, can I engage in running and active physical activities?

Tatiana

The same problem. I had UHF and ultrasound therapy (thankfully, everything is free here) for 8 sessions, no improvement, if anything, it got worse. Only taping helps, at least I limp less. The orthopedist said to do X-rays and an ultrasound, and then he will decide about the surgery. I don't want the injection, it doesn't heal, but only temporarily soothes the inflamed tissue, and then everything comes back. Although the doctor insists I should try; if it doesn't help the first time, then there's no point in trying again. I read online that in Russia there are no problems getting surgery, but here they delay because it’s free. I think surgery is the most optimal option.

Valentina

Copper helps well; heat it, wrap it in a cloth, and walk with it until it cools down, and repeat this several times!

Nadezhda

I cured a heel spur in my left foot with 2 injections at Dr. Yavid's clinic in St. Petersburg. I was there for my back treatment and asked if they could help with my heel. And, oh miracle! The injection is unpleasant but bearable. The pleasure costs 1500 rubles for 2 injections. If I recall, I struggled with my right heel for 2 years, trying everything except urine therapy... In short, I am happy!

Margarita

I forgot to warn you, beware of burns. Wood ash should not come into contact with open skin. After this procedure, the heels become as smooth as a baby's. There was a feeling that the skin on the heel softens so much that you could practically remove the entire top layer down to the bone.

Galina

About 10 years ago, I got rid of a spur: I soaked my feet in a solution of sea salt + fir oil, then made a paste from wood ash and water, smeared my heel with fatty cream, wrapped it in a cotton cloth, placed the paste with wood ash on another cotton cloth, applied it to my heel, put a plastic bag and a sock on top. I kept it for maybe an hour before sleeping (it was already hot in the house). It helped in two sessions. However, I had been doing foot baths with sea salt periodically several times before that.

Galina

It's clear who the people support and who they don't. But what does scientific medicine know?
Why is science silent?

NS.

This set helped: Ortofen 3 times a day + hydrocortisone ointment 3 times a day (covered with polyethylene and tightly bandaged) + a star on at night

Elena

I've tried everything: injections, baths, I've applied copper wire, and I've gone to all the procedures. I could howl like a wolf, and now I'm writing to you simply because I have no strength left. I've taken some advice into consideration and will try it. As for my age, I mentioned it for reference; it might be a bit early, but I'm suffering. Thank you all for the advice!)

Gulnara, 44 years old

I made a compress with an alcohol tincture from white lilac overnight and it helped me. You need to do it several times.

Nadezhda

Diprospan didn't help; this painful injection leaves me feverish for a whole day, and it's impossible to walk for another week. The disease arthritis doesn't allow for recovery. Today, I saw on TV that Malyshev said there's a lack of selenium and vitamin D.

Irina

They prescribed baths. 2 tablets of aspirin, 15 drops of iodine, 1 tsp of coniferous extract in three liters of water. Every evening. Then apply cream "Deep Heat" 15 minutes after the cream for a night compress with gel-cream for heel spurs.

Marina

The pain in my heel started in January of this year. I endured as much as I could until the pain brought me to tears. Today I saw a surgeon about the spurs on both heels. He prescribed me bile and laser therapy. There's no bile available in pharmacies. I soaked my feet in sea salt. I applied honey to my heels and wrapped them in cabbage. I will wait for results. Wishing everyone health.

Oksana

ultrasound helps with hydrocortisone

hope

I FORGOT TO SAY KEROSENE AND MOONSHINE 250 ML EACH TO COVER THE HEEL IF ANYONE IS GOING TO DO IT, PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE RESULT, I’M CURIOUS TO KNOW

SVETLANA

FRIENDS, I STARTED TO USE KEROSENE WITH HOME DISTILLATE, I HAVE DONE IT 5 TIMES SO FAR. THE PAIN HASN'T COMPLETELY GONE AWAY, BUT NOW I CAN WALK. BEFORE, TAKING A STEP WAS REALLY HARD, BUT NOW I CAN WALK A LOT. IT STARTS TO TUG A LITTLE, BUT IT'S NOT SUCH HELLISH PAIN, SO I RECOMMEND IT. AND ONE MORE THING: DON’T CHANGE THE KEROSENE WITH HOME DISTILLATE AFTER THE PROCEDURE, DRAIN IT INTO A SMALL JAR. WHEN I START STEAMING, IT FEELS LIKE IT'S PULSATING, BUT THEN IT PASSES. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE; I WILL WRITE AFTER 10 PROCEDURES FOR NOW.

I healed my heel spurs with the herb chickweed. I picked the grass in the garden, applied it to my heels at night, removed it in the morning, rested for about 2 hours, and then applied the grass again. I did this for 2-3 months.

Alexandra

I've tried almost everything (except vinegar, of course). It needs to be cut off.

Viktor

Crushed red brick also helps. Grind it into dust, fill a sock with it, and walk for 10 days. The spur goes away.

igor

And also sew a square from a handkerchief, place small iron balls in it, and walk, the spur will break itself and there will be no need for any injections.

Valentina

Tobacco sold in the market helps very well; fill a glass with hot water and steam your feet three times, and you will forget about the heel spur forever.

Valentina

I forgot to mention to add boiling water to the basin with water but not to the mixture of kerosene and moonshine

Svetlana

Hello everyone, I have the same story. I did wave therapy for 3 sessions and spent 5 thousand, but it was useless. I have heel spurs on both feet, and the pain on the right side is excruciating, even when I'm not walking. My mom cured her spur 20 years ago, but I'm afraid to do it. She took 1 bottle of kerosene and 1 bottle of homemade vodka, poured everything into a metal can, placed it in a basin with hot water, and steamed for about 20 minutes, adding boiling water, for 10 days. But she did it 3 times and hasn’t thought about it in 20 years. However, her skin started peeling from her heels, but there was no burn. I'm going to try, even though I'm scared. I’m a coward, but she said the pain went away, and steaming was not painful. Good luck to everyone!

I've tried everything, but the best way is to soak your heel in hot water with sea salt for 30 minutes. The water should be very hot; dip your foot in quickly and then raise it out...... It's better to keep adding water so it doesn't cool down. Then apply some Vicks Vaporub and put a plastic bag on your foot, followed by a warm sock. At first, I did this twice a day for two weeks. Afterwards, I continued twice a week for maintenance.

VALENTINA

I've read a lot here and realized that the only way to deal with a spur is amputation.

Nikolai

5 years ago, I got rid of severe pain with the help of X-ray therapy, and I didn't even remember that it used to hurt. Before that, I tried numerous folk remedies. All useless. In spring, the spur reminded me of itself. I started applying ointments, compresses, etc., tied magnets on, gathered all the burdocks in the area - it seemed to ease up a bit. It was much easier during the vacation at the sea. Now the same trouble again - the pain is excruciating. I visited an orthopedic trauma doctor (it's a separate story how he spoke to me: without an X-ray, he determined that I had a spur and said, "People go to doctors, open the Internet and read folk remedies," and a bunch of other nonsense). This is our MEDICINE. I suppose I will use X-ray therapy again, as I can no longer bear the pain.

Spurs or no spurs can only be determined by an X-ray; do not self-medicate. The heel is an important organ of the body.

Arina

I also wrote about this, and I was surprised by the many different pieces of advice, but in reality, there is practically NOTHING that can help, although I think any surgeon would suggest just that. I was not surprised by the spurs or the proposed treatment method, as I saw how my mother suffered and how she was cured. Folk remedies are great, but they do not always yield results.

Mila

Today I had an X-ray of my ankle joint, and in general, I somewhat suspected that it was spurs - they treated, however, my ankle (which is not surprising). I will skip the details of my indignation about wandering among our "specialists" - that's a separate story.. The nurse in the X-ray room immediately saw spurs on both heels and said that X-ray therapy personally helped her. She forgot about them for 10 years, and it might be worth listening to.

Elena

Yes, I read a lot. In 2009, I had pain in my right heel; the surgeon sent me for an X-ray. Spurs on both feet, but only the right one hurt. I had 10 sessions of radiation therapy at the oncology dispensary and didn't notice how the pain went away. But now it has come back. I went for an X-ray again, and there are spurs again; I was surprised. They explained to me that they don't go away; they hurt when inflammation begins. I take antidepressants, and naturally, I gained a lot of weight, my legs started to hurt, not just my heels. I need to go for radiation therapy again. My mother had the same experience; she was on sick leave for a long time, and only radiation helped. About 10 years later, she had radiation therapy again, but on her other heel. I doubt that radiation will help me this time, as it's the same heel that hurts. I've never heard about injections and other nonsense; my mother and I were immediately sent for radiation therapy, being told honestly that shock waves with ultrasound rarely help anyone. The only thing I understood from the forum pages was about the spur. I also have it on my left foot and have had it since childhood; as long as I can remember, it's always been there. It has never bothered me, but now I feel it a little. I again associate everything with excess weight, but I'm not going to burn it off; it's deeply embedded, and one can only harm it. In short, I will go for radiation therapy and need to lose weight; in the past, the treadmill helped, but now I'm afraid that the load will only worsen the spur situation. There is no need to be afraid of radiation therapy; they use therapeutic doses, and the rest is covered with special shielding that prevents the rays from passing through. I’m amazed at some forum participants, suffering for years; isn’t it strange that no one suggested radiation therapy besides injections? I guess it should be correctly called radiotherapy. They charge for injections, and it's a hormonal drug, Diprospan, which must be handled carefully. My mother, who is 76 years old, had her heels irradiated twice, 25 years ago and 18 years ago, and she is alive, thank God, and without any consequences. Good luck to everyone.

Mila

If rough skin with a dot in the middle is a corn, and a spur inside the heel, do not confuse.

Yola

Why reinvent the wheel? !!! If you really have heel spurs, then use the recipe suggested at the very beginning of this forum: "Honey, iodine, salt - folk remedy for heel spurs". THE RECIPE IS SIMPLY AMAZING, don't doubt it! After all the painful searches for a remedy for spurs, I accidentally discovered it 3 years ago. The effect is one hundred percent. Just don't overdo it, apply the mixture ONLY on your heels, otherwise you will burn the uncalloused parts of your foot, as I did. In the mornings, you will have to endure an unknown pain, but it is worth it !!!

Lyudmila

About 8-10 years ago, I suffered from a heel spur. Bile helped, I didn't try anything else - I went through 5-6 bottles. Since then, I haven't thought about it. Now my wife has it, we'll see, we bought bile again...

Dmitry

Oh brethren, I have the same pains. But I cannot abandon my service. In the altar, the service lasts three, three and a half hours, and all on my feet. I endure, pray, cry from pain, and rejoice that I must suffer here on earth; perhaps the Lord will take my earthly sufferings into account and grant mercy there. I do not try any methods or treatments; I humbly bear my Cross. Health to you, dear brethren and sisters, kindred souls.

Sergius

I don't know if it's a spur or not, I can't get to the doctor (but by all signs it seems to be it and it's already been 4 months! I just made an onion with honey and iodine for the night! I hope it helps, otherwise I definitely need to see a surgeon and get injections! What kind of injections, please tell me, maybe I can manage to do them at home tonight?

Elena

About the heel, it's complete nonsense - I have been wearing heels of 3-5 cm all my life, no more, and how did the spur appear? Or why hasn't it gone away? The surgeon today advised applying a cloth soaked in medical bile for about 4 hours, just don't make a compress, but let it dry! I will try, if it helps - I will write

love

My heels hurt on both feet, I had 5 procedures with radio wave therapy and there was no effect, the injections in my heels had no effect either, what should I do? Various folk methods don’t help, what a nuisance. What to do, where are the doctors, there is no help at all.

Elvira

I read all the advice! It's nice that we have so many people who share their tips for the problem of heel spurs. I have had them on my left foot for 13 years and on my right for 2 years! I have tried 80% of all the advice without any shift, and by evening I don't want to see the "white light". Unfortunately, there are hardly any doctors dealing with this issue, and I have long had the impression that the more we visit them, the worse it is for the patients. I accidentally ended up with a traumatologist; today I had 2 injections of Diprospan. The injection is certainly not very pleasant, but quite bearable. Improvement – at least I could slightly step on the spurs; before that, I walked with my feet turned "outward". Out of joy, I walked a very long distance, but the pain came back, and now I am waiting for the result after the second injection. It relieved the pain a bit – star, but I am allergic to it. And most importantly – do not start treatment without an X-ray; heel spurs arise for various reasons. I wish everyone to get rid of this nuisance, thank you for the advice!

Evgeniya

I managed everything with the help of burdock

Ira

You can hear anything...
There is a bony growth - a deposit of salts, so it needs to be removed, not just pushed aside while masking the problem with pain relief. This is all just half-measures.

Rinata

It's been a month of pain in my left heel, what is this.....

Lyudmila

About 25 years ago, the spur appeared for the first time, treated only with X-rays. For all these years, I did not know what a spur was. For about six months now, I have no strength left because of it. I have tried everything – nonsense. I think I need to go back to X-ray therapy again.

Galina

I have been suffering from heel spurs for about 3 years. I had injections in each heel. The first time it helped, but only for about 4 months, the second time for about 3 months. The last time, it seemed to last for a month. In the morning, I can't walk due to the pain. I limp for about 2 hours. I took a pill and did compresses. I wear heel pads. All this was prescribed to me by an orthopedist. Nothing helps. Now I will use the advice of happier bearers of "spurs," who have found relief.

Oksana

For ten months, I have been suffering from heel spur. I have used various creams, bee venom, etc. Now I have completed 6 sessions of shock wave therapy. It has become easier, but I don’t know for how long. The thought of going for the procedure tomorrow is unbearable - it’s CRAZILY PAINFUL, even more than giving birth. Today, I bought HEEL SPUR cream (costs 172 rubles) and began rubbing and massaging it every hour, and by evening the pain has lessened. I don’t know for how long, but I’m already grateful for it. And one more thing - if you have this problem, you need to tackle it head-on or not at all. Only then will there be a result, and it’s preferable to do everything in a comprehensive way and many times in a row. I hope I’m nearing the finish line, and I wish the same for everyone.

For three years I had a spur on one heel, then on the other. It helped to take an empty bottle with a widened neck, place one foot on the other, and with my free hand tap the heel with the neck of the bottle while simultaneously soaking the heel with a mixture of herbs: willow branches, birch, plantain, and field horsetail. I put everything in a bucket and poured boiling water over it from a kettle. Then I kept the heel soaked.

Nina

I used to treat it like this: I would fill a bottle with hot water and, sitting by the TV, roll it with my foot (more on the heel), then I would roll it with a roller. Now, after 15 years, it hurts again. And I have to go to my daughter in St. Petersburg from the MILITARY Kramatorsk. I will try everything that is recommended + the bottle.

Lyudmila

I'm tired, I can't even in the evening howl like a wolf from this hellish pain. I've read a lot of different things, in the evening I'll start with a little star and see how it goes.

Olesya

I suffered from heel pain for six months. Endured it. Walked with a limp. Tried everything. And pain relief ointments! A spur in my left heel. I thought nothing would help! And oh miracle! A visit to the surgeon! One injection! In the evening, I rubbed in hydrocortisone ointment on my pre-soaked heel. And I already forgot that just a week ago I was limping. So friends - DON’T endure it! Get treated.

Zhanna

Hello!!! My mother had heel spurs, she couldn't step on her heels, she was in excruciating pain until she found and tried a recipe, and now for twenty years she doesn't know what heel spurs are. I would like to share this recipe: take 1 raw egg and pour 0.5 cups of vinegar so that the egg is covered in vinegar. After the egg dissolves, add 80 g of butter, mix it and apply it to the heel at night, and during the day remove the bandage. At night, soak the leg and apply the ointment again. It helps different people in different ways, my mother was helped in three days.

Oleg

My grandmother suffered a lot, she lived in a village, and no folk remedies helped. Then someone advised about bile - a dark-colored liquid sold at the pharmacy. She made compresses overnight, and it worked. I am now 52, and I have started having problems in both heels. Tomorrow I will go to the pharmacy to find this bile, and of course, I will buy the star. What can I say - I will try everything, I will try to do without pills. In my time, I felt very bad from orthophane.

Elena

women!!! Folk remedies won't help here.... believe me!!! They might only relieve the pain a little... I have spurs... I visited a doctor for prescribed radiation therapy and it all went away as if by magic...... the pain first subsided after 6 sessions, and then completely disappeared, despite all the tears that were shed.... So don't be afraid, it's safe and effective....

Olga

I have this problem too. A friend advised me to heat a red brick and rub my heels against it. I haven't tried it yet; I just heard about it today.

Zinaida

I also had a heel spur last year on one of my heels, I treated it with low-dose X-rays, it helped for exactly a year, but this year the pain has returned, I had an X-ray done and the spur is as it was, moreover, two spurs have appeared on the other heel as well, with unbearable pain on both sides, I am treating it with heel spur ointment which helps for a while as long as I don't walk.

Lyuba

Yes, the bird's highlander (cuckoo) grows under our feet. It is very good at removing salt from the body. You need to drink a decoction of it and apply it to the heel at night. Grandma removed sand from the kidneys with its help.

Irina

I generously lather a cotton pad with tar soap, squeeze out a little Vishnevsky's ointment, cover it with plastic wrap, and secure it with an elastic band for the night. It helps a bit.

Irina

Your regiment has arrived. I read everything, laughed a lot, and now I don't know where to start, my head is spinning. Indeed, I really should put a copper basin on my head...

Elena

Regular kerosene helped me. No more than 10 at night, soak some cotton in kerosene and apply it to the heel (make a compress). Then 3-5 laser sessions on the heels.

kathepina

I treated my heel spur with shock wave therapy, completing 14 sessions. The pain started to fade after the 8th session, very gradually. During all this time, I mostly stayed indoors, as the doctor warned that I needed a gentle regimen and should limit my movement. After endless days at home, I was climbing the walls, but I endured. A year later, I went back for shock wave therapy because I developed pain in the center of my foot, closer to the outer side. I had 4 sessions. This year, I haven't visited the doctor even once. So far, everything's fine, knock on wood. I must say that no ointments or compresses helped me. A friend of mine, who is a neurologist, cured her heel spur with compresses made from bile. In the morning she wore socks soaked in bile and kept them on all day, changing them at night. After a month and a half, the pain was gone. And now it’s been six years, everything is fine.

Irina

From what I understand, everyone has their own remedy that helps... you need to try until you find what works for you. My aunt was helped by electrophoresis, but my godmother didn’t benefit from it... instead, the peony tincture helped. My mom is still struggling with iodine... she switched to peony recently... and just the other day, I started feeling unwell too... I will start with a star and a warm sock... fortunately, I’m on vacation now... by the way, about 10 years ago, woolen red socks helped me... I had a sharp pain in the bone on my big toe, and I couldn’t wear anything except for indoor slippers... I wore woolen socks day and night for about 2 months (except for when I was at work) and still, the bone hasn’t appeared again.

Svetlana

I struggled with heel spurs for a year, even had to buy a stick for support, nothing helped from folk remedies, so I went to the doctor to discuss surgery, and the doctor recommended radiotherapy. Without even going home, I went for the procedures, and after just the first session, there was relief from the pain. I completed 10 sessions and have been walking pain-free for 4 years.

Elena

Three months ago, my left foot started hurting, and the doctor prescribed Alflutop injections, but they didn't help.

Alyona

Many years ago I got rid of a spur by tying bird's vine grass to my heel for several days, as advised by a neighbor. My acquaintances also successfully used this advice.

Lyudmila

I also have a heel spur, and they gave me copper foil from the chemistry lab. I tied it up; it relieves the pain. Before that, I did shockwave therapy and a lot of other things, and now I'm managing with the application of copper. In China, they suggested using a remedy for dry corns with a little red thing in the middle, which is also great.

Svetlana

A few years ago, I felt pain in my heels, went to the doctor, had an X-ray done - two bone spurs, I asked how to remove them? In response, they prescribed some compresses - I tried them, zero emotion. My husband and I went to visit the dacha, and his sister dug up a horseradish root and said - grate it and apply it to your heels. My husband grated it, I bandaged it - the first night I cried, it felt like a boil, the next day I changed the bandage - and there were no more such sensations. I walked around the house with these compresses for three or four days, and one morning - I stood on my heels and didn’t understand - there was no pain. A few years have passed, and now there’s pain again on the left heel - that was where the biggest spur was on the X-ray - I applied horseradish again, it helped me before - I hope it helps this time too.

Tatiana

I've been suffering from heel spurs for about 5 years. First, it appeared on my left heel - I treated it with shockwave therapy in a physiotherapy clinic. For about 2 years, everything was fine, but now I have a spur on my right heel. I can't afford shockwave therapy for now, so I've tried some home remedies: 1. I boil potato peels and steam my feet in them. It relieves the pain and makes it a bit easier to walk. 2. I take baths with sea salt (cool water), which also eases the pain. I agree that I need to wear shoes with a heel height of 3-5 cm. When it got really unbearable, I took painkillers (ibuprofen).

Elena

My left heel hurts, I haven't seen a doctor, but it feels like I have a spur. I tried treating it with medical bile. I mixed equal parts of medical bile, vodka, and shampoo and made a compress to wear overnight for a week. That's how my mom cured her spur. But it didn't help me. I will try something else from the recipes mentioned above, hoping it will work. I agree that it's individual for everyone.

Natalia

try the cream-balm OSTEOKHONDROVIT

Larissa

My mom struggled with bone spurs for a long time. Then she was advised to apply bile at night. But... it needs to be applied for a long time. It took a month and a half for my mom to see results. A lot of time passed, and there were no complaints about it. Give it a try and don't be lazy... it will help.

Rimma

I've reread everything, but I didn't see anything that helped me, so: 1) Fight the spur from the first day, as soon as you feel the sensation of a nail being driven into your heel; it's definitely it. 2) It's advisable to steam with a dense infusion of melilotus in the morning and evening. 3) After the morning procedure, roll a rolling pin, massage tools, or an aspen stick - the more, the better, even all day while sitting at the computer. 4) Wear magnetic beads on your foot in the form of a bracelet (they're not visible under trousers). 5) After the evening procedure with melilotus, apply camphor ointment to the heel and the entire sole. 6) Do not walk without 3-4 cm heels even at home. 7) The success of the fight depends solely on your persistence; don't miss not just a day, but even an hour a day. It gave in to me after a month. Then I started wearing an orthopedic insole, switching it from shoes to boots. But I agree with others that it’s all individual: what is beneficial for a Russian is death for a German. The main thing is not to give up, to try, and you will find YOUR remedy.

I've been suffering from heel spurs for two years. Shock wave therapy didn't help. I've had 8 sessions and tried all kinds of ointments and compresses. The pain is unbearable; life isn't worth living sometimes, and I sometimes wish I were dead.

Valentina

I am 40 years old, I am not a medical worker... I am an educator... I suffered from terrible pain. I treated myself at home with baths, compresses, and massage. The pain went away, but after a month, it returned... until I went to the hospital.

Elena

Home treatment is not yielding results. The pain goes away, but the spur remains....

Elena

The special shock wave, acting on the heel spur, leads to the destruction of salt deposits. This method also improves blood supply to the foot, destroys fibrous areas, increases the elasticity of ligaments, and serves as a preventive measure against flat feet. A noticeable pain-relieving effect appears already after the first session of shock wave therapy. On average, 6-8 procedures are needed to remove a heel spur, with an interval of 5-7 days.

Elena

Heel spur is a chronic condition of the feet, resulting from the deposition of salts in the heel area and accompanied by severe pain in the heel during walking and physical exertion. This is especially noticeable in the morning with the first steps when the patient gets out of bed and also after prolonged walking, standing, or after walks. For non-surgical treatment of heel spurs, modern medicine offers - the method of shock wave therapy.

Elena

Only BLOCKADE!!! Nothing else helps! My pain only went away after the third injection. After the first and second injections, the pain subsided for a few days, but not completely. BLOCKADE!!!

Galina

Reading the reviews, I realized that six months ago I developed a corn on my heel; the pain was particularly bad when I touched that heel, but it went away on its own when we spent the summer at Lake Alakol (Kazakhstan). On the shore, there were shungite stones, and despite the pain, I walked barefoot on those stones, which were unbearably hot from the sun. When I got home, I didn't even notice that my heel had stopped hurting, so I recommend it to everyone; the lake is beautiful and you will heal your corns.

Alima

WHO CAME UP WITH THE RECIPE MED+SALT+IODINE, I TRIED IT ON MYSELF. I HELD IT FOR 30 MINUTES, GOT BURNS

Irina

Under no circumstances should you use recipes with vinegar. I tried it. I got a chemical burn, the skin peeled off my heel like a sock, and now I'm treating the wound (a deep burn like a trophic ulcer) at a private clinic. Both the spur and the wound hurt - it's terrible!!!

Valentina

I had a spur on my left heel. For 10 days, I applied a tincture of golden mustache, soaked a cotton pad, covered it with plastic wrap, and wore a sock at night. After a week, the pain went away and it hasn't returned for 4 years! The skin on my heel peeled off, but it didn’t hurt, give it a try!

Svetlana

Help me get rid of the internal spurs on my heels, please.
Otherwise, I won't be able to walk soon.

Marina

8 years ago, I got a spur. I treated it for a year at the clinic: all kinds of physiotherapy, X-ray therapy, bile. It didn't help. The ointment PIATKOSHPOR helped. Now I've been suffering again for 3 months, and PIATKOSHPOR hasn't helped for a second. I'm reading your advice, and indeed my head is spinning.

Alla

I roll a rolling pin for an hour or more every day, and it feels much better; sometimes I completely forget about the pain. The doctor advised me based on simple logic - the callus forms on the area and dulls the sharpness.

inspiration

My feet hurt after work, not just the heels but also the ankles, and my whole legs ache. It's a nightmare; I really don't want to go to the doctor, but I have to. I'm sitting here rolling a pin with my heels, hoping it will help, just pure friction from the side.

Konstantin

I've been suffering for two years. I tried everything. Copper wire helped. I folded it in half and put it in my sock. I walked around all day, and on the second day, it became easier. On the second day, I placed it again. I walked around all day, and I felt completely better.

Farida

I have a wart that has grown, I've tried everything and nothing helps, the pain is so strong I can't stand up, now I'm cauterizing it with potassium permanganate, the pain goes away.

Larisa

Removing warts, or what people call 'chicken butt,' is not advisable. I had them on my heel and on my pinky toe. We tried everything, burning them with liquid nitrogen and even cutting them out ourselves. Cutting is painful because it's living skin tissue, and there's a lot of blood afterwards. A folk remedy did its work: I took a regular apple (I picked a nice red one), cut it in half with a nylon thread (you must cut it with thread). I rubbed one half on one wart and the other half on my finger. Then I put the two halves back together and tied the apple with the same nylon thread. I went to the yard, where there were no extra people, and buried the apple near a tree. As soon as the apple rots in the ground, the wart will dissolve without a trace. That's exactly what happened to me. I just forgot about the buried apple and the pain in my leg. I remembered the wart when I saw the same wart on a friend's leg and wanted to compare it to mine and realized that I no longer had them... That's how it is... Try it, maybe it will help someone.

Sorry, how can I dig something? So this is not a spur. I had an X-ray done. Injections: Afletop, Milgamma. Ointment-gel "Ketanol", and capsules - Teraflex. To prevent stomach pain, I take Omeprazole an hour before. First, it is necessary to reduce inflammation and continue treatment. Various things: urine, etc., nonsense. You can also take pills: Fulflex. It helps.

Nadezhda.

Yesterday I barely limped home from work, if you have a heel spur, you’ll understand me! The pain is excruciating, I can't even stand on my foot! I went to the forum and read everything! I was thinking about where to start – with salt, honey, or iodine, and then my neighbor came in, saw that I was limping, and here’s the advice: look for a Soviet 5 kopeck coin at home or a piece of copper!!! I tied it with a bandage to the spur + a wool sock. After about 3 hours, the pain calmed down, and by morning I was able to stand on my foot without pain!!!!! I don’t know what worked, but it doesn’t hurt for now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe it will help someone else too!

Elena

Salt, iodine, a star, etc., it's all nonsense. Today I'm going to the blockade.

iraida-iren

Many here confuse a spur with warts on the heels (which can be anywhere on the foot, the symptoms are the same as with a spur — pain when walking and when stepping, but a wart is slightly raised, like a callus. If you soak your foot and cut a bit of the skin, you can see many small black needles, and those are what cause hellish pain.) You can get rid of this nuisance by soaking your foot, wiping it with alcohol, and cutting all of this out, or going to the doctor and having it burned off with a laser. As for the bony spur, a method that worked for a friend was to tap it with a small hammer or roller for 15 minutes in the morning and evening on the spur itself (on the point where it hurts to press with your finger). At first, it will hurt, but then the pain goes away and you don’t notice it at all; after a week of use, the spur either gets lodged in a different direction or completely stops growing, but the result is that the pain disappears.

Arthur

Hello everyone. I am also in your ranks. My right heel suddenly started hurting in June 2013. But before that, I would have difficulty getting out of bed in the mornings and I wondered what was wrong. And literally after a few steps, the pain would go away. I had an X-ray done and it turned out to be a heel spur. I underwent physiotherapy with ultrasound, I forgot with which medication, but the effect was zero. After some time, the surgeon gave me a diprospan injection in my heel 2 times with an interval of 10 days. Of course, the injection hurts, but it is manageable. After the first injection, the pain went away. The doctor said that if there are any pains, a third injection would be needed, but I had the second injection without pain. I completely forgot about any pain. How quickly a person forgets about pain that has not let them rest! Before the injections, I asked the doctor to refer me to shock wave therapy, but it turned out that these procedures were contraindicated for me, as I have osteoarthritis of the knee joint (currently in remission) and varicose veins. So shock wave therapy is not indicated for everyone, be careful! But after 3 months, oh horror, the pain started to return, and additionally on my left heel (only when getting up so far). I went back to the surgeon for another injection, but he did not help me, only increasing the pain. The doctor recommended compresses made from a mixture of dimexide, novocaine, diclofenac, and water - I made them several times but they did not help. I am afraid to get carried away with injections; I read somewhere that frequent injections can damage the fascia. So here I am sitting on the Internet, looking for recipes. To all those suffering from these heel spurs, my sincerest condolences, understanding, and wishes for a quick recovery. I picked a few tips myself - I will try them. If there is positive progress, I will let you know. Wishing everyone good health.

Thank you very much for the advice...

Lyudmila

This injection is very painful. It helped only for two months. Now my pain is back. I’m tired of this!!!

sveta

Hello!!! I read all your comments and learned a lot of new things about treating heel spurs. I had them in both feet eight years ago. I tried everything: I soaked my feet in sawdust, made salt and honey compresses overnight, and nothing helped. One elderly lady told me that until they grow out on their own, the pain won't go away. And now I have a spur on my left heel. The pain is excruciating, like a boil bursting, and my heel is numb. What should I do? I also want to tell those who dig out spurs - it's not a spur, but rather spikes in the heels.

Vera

To the surgeon and injections. I had 5 injections, with three medications administered at once. Yes, it hurts, but now I have been pain-free for over a year.

Natalia

Hello everyone, I read how many people are suffering from the terrible pain of heel spurs. I am not spared from this either. Everything is on one leg, but I still had to do a blockade, then on the other leg the pain was even stronger, although I lived for half a year in the south by the sea, I couldn't stand it anymore, I got tired of walking on my toes, I had a blockade done, the pain wouldn’t go away. They suggested that it doesn’t cure, but at least it relieves the pain: liquid levomycetine, yes, it costs 25 rubles, compresses at night. But as I was explained, my metabolism is disturbed, my acidity is high, the salt accumulates in the joints, in the heels. I was advised to eat rice during the day and drink rosehip, try raw eating. I want to try. Wishing everyone health and a quick relief from the spur, it is terrible pain.

Antonina

YES. ROLLING THE HEEL WITH A LITTLE PENCIL OR A SMALL LOG - THAT'S YES. IT HELPS ME TO APPLY APISATRON OINTMENT AT NIGHT - WRAP IT WITH PLASTIC FILM AND A WOOL SOCK ON TOP. ROLL THE HEEL MERCILESSLY LIKE DOUGH WITH A ROLLING PIN OR A ROLLER - DON’T GIVE THIS INFECTIOUS DISEASE ANY PEACE AS IT DOESN’T GIVE US PEACE.

Nothing will help until your time comes; the pain will not pass. God grant you patience and may you have more peace for your legs.

Nurfik

I’ll add: it was less than a year ago, I remember well how I spent my summer in Tunisia, getting up in the morning, struggling against the pain, barely "walking around," and I needed to walk a lot, wanting to see as much as possible, and here such a setback... I really hope that I said goodbye forever.

Andrey

I don't know, maybe it's just a coincidence, and I can't believe my luck, TTT - I bought a cheap ointment (around 80 rubles) with golden mustache at the pharmacy, rubbed it in for a few days, and since then I've forgotten all about my spurs. This was about a year ago.

Andrey

I treated spurs for everyone successfully, but now I am sick myself, which is disappointing.

Tamara

I had spurs on both feet. In the morning, I could barely get up; I had to use my hands to rise from my workplace. Until I warmed up, I could barely move. It only got easier in the south, in the heat. I went to doctors, took X-rays, got massages, steamed, wrapped my feet in bags with cologne, etc. Nothing helped. Recovery came by chance. Instead of the extracted tooth, they installed a shunt and prescribed calcium D3 Nicomed. I took 2 large cans. It lasted for 2 months. The pain in my heels started to subside, and then it completely disappeared. It's been a year and a half without any pain. Knock on wood.
Doctors said I had to accept it and live with it. Now they say that after the calcium, the spurs, in Russian, have hardened and lost sensitivity.
I couldn't help but share this. Perhaps it might help someone. And calcium is not a harmful thing, unlike all sorts of dubious broths.

Thank you kind people for the advice, I will try those that I liked - folk remedies. I am afraid of heating my leg due to varicose veins, so I have chosen the acceptable ones for myself.

Lyudmila

It helped me in 2 days with tar and onion overnight

Almira

Two years ago in winter, I fell on the street; there was one missing paving stone, it was covered with snow, and the pain was unimaginable. There are many consequences after the fall, but the most bothersome pain is the heel spur. How I got rid of it... first, I applied compresses at night made of boiled potatoes (I used the peels; I was told it was better to use them). Then cabbage with honey. After that, every day I filled the bathtub with hot water up to my ankles and steamed my legs like that for about 10-15 minutes, then I would place my heel in the drain hole and carefully, without fanaticism, twist it in different directions, wearing woolen socks at night. But the pain finally went away after.... :) don’t twist your finger at my temple)))))) - ink from a ballpoint pen. Once an elderly woman advised me to simply smear the ink on the heel where the spur is at night. I hesitated for a long time.... but the spur can torment anyone! The funniest thing was that in the morning I jumped up as if nothing had happened, took care of household chores, and only then realized..... oh, there’s no pain! I repeated the procedure once more, but still didn’t dare again, although the old lady said it should be done 4 times. So that's the story :) Wishing everyone good health!

I struggled with the spur for a year, tried everything, thanks to a kind person who suggested it. I applied crushed garlic overnight, and I didn't even notice when it disappeared...

Valery

I am currently flying with kombucha.

Olga

For 2 years I was limping along quietly) I tried all sorts of things to stick it together) only injections! saved in the heel, the doctor will tell the name of the injections (I'm not into advertising) I just went through this myself, I want to help...

58

What can I advise my mom after completing the treatment course (injections) and ointments? Anyone who has tried nanoplast, please respond.

Egor

December 2013 - January 2014. Spurs on both feet, I tried to do compresses, ended up with a three-time blockade, it helped, but after a couple of days, my left heel has been "burning" for 10 days. I will try folk medicine.

Irina

A year ago, I cured my heel spur like this: I rolled a rolling pin with my foot every evening for several months and forgot about the spur for 1.5 years. Now my heel hurts again. I did "blocks," which last for a month and then it's back. So I'm trying to roll the pin again in my free time when I'm sitting. Give it a try!

Julia

The spur is confirmed by X-ray as heel disease, so I soak them in hot water and then hit my heels with a hammer with spikes as long as I can stand it. I also put my feet on the Kuznetsov applicator and press my heels (you have to press carefully or you might puncture your heel). It helps me. My grandmother also said that a spur is a spike and it needs to be kneaded.

Love

Here they are messing around, scratching, rubbing, and removing the spur. But how? If it’s not visible at all. I barely cried out in pain in the mornings because I couldn’t step on my foot at all. My mother gave me my grandmother's recipe. In the evening, I used heated seawater, and in the absence of that, I replaced it with regular water with the addition of sea salt — 3 tablespoons of salt for 1 liter. I soaked my foot for 40 minutes. Then I crushed 10 aspirin tablets into powder and mixed it with iodine to make a paste. I applied it to my heel and covered it with a plastic bag, putting a warm sock on top. I did all this before bed and didn’t take the sock off until morning. Today it feels much better at home, although I haven't tried putting on shoes. I've only done this for two evenings. My mother says I need to do it continuously. And in spring, when the fresh celandine comes, I should use its juice. And it will all pass. When spring arrives, I will report back.

Andrey

The pain is terrible, I'm not treating it because I know it's useless! Endure! Last time it took about eight months. I hope it will pass by spring! But anyway, a shot can be tried!\n\nSvetlana V.

It's not the heel that hurts, it's the side of the heel

guest

I tried a lot of things—nothing helped. One woman advised me to apply a paste of garlic to my heel and cover it with film and a bandage. Keep it on for 35 minutes (the last 10 minutes it burns like boiling water) and do this for 3 days. There was a significant improvement, but the pain did not go away completely. Since my heel began to peel, I had to continue the treatment after 3 months—I did it 2 more times—and it was as if nothing had happened.

Nadezhda

I treated my heel spur at a clinic for 2 years. Physiotherapy, injections, and insoles slightly eased the pain. Folk remedies also helped a little for some time. But I was completely cured only by BISHOFIT.

Lyudmila

Shockwave therapy didn't help. I had 6 sessions. Now the pain only intensifies. Don't throw away your money. The insoles make walking easier. But it feels like during the day the heel gets packed, there's plastic there, a small cutout under the center of the heel, and the pain is more on the inner side of the heel. They recommend a silicone heel pad. But how will that support the arch of the foot if the silicone raises the heel?

I struggled with heel spurs for a year, tried all of the above, burned my heels with vinegar, the skin peeled off like a stocking, the pain subsided only for a short time, I overindulged in Ortofen until it stopped helping as well. Four months ago, I saw a surgeon who injected me with Diprospan (in the most painful spot on my heel), two injections in each heel. Now I'm just flying, but the doctor said this treatment is lifelong. After a year or two, the inflammatory process will start again, and I will need to get injections again. I'm ready; let it be for a year, but I'm running, not limping, and I feel like a whole person. Also, I need to put silicone insoles (for heel spurs) in my shoes; they reduce the impact on the heel. Don't delay; go to the doctors...

Irina

I'm flying like this ... mix 1 bottle of ammonia, 1 bottle of food, and triple cologne, and apply it to the heel. I hold it as long as I can ... I've done it 3 times so far .... They say you should also tap your heel on the floor ... it's some kind of horror ..

Tatiana

Place the matches in a basin of hot water. Soak for 15-20 minutes. On the 1st day - 1 box of matches, on the 2nd day - 2 boxes, on the 3rd day - 3 boxes, on the 4th day - 4 boxes, and so on... on the 10th day - 10 boxes. At this point, the treatment will be complete and the spur should pass.

Larisa

Why do people confuse a heel spur with a "wart" that has many roots sticking out from the wound? You can burn a wart with anything, like the same electro needle in the clinic, but a spur is a growth from the heel bone that develops like a spur on a rooster. That’s why it’s called a heel spur. When walking, this growth gradually begins to bend and grows back into the bone, which is why it hurts so much. My first spur appeared on my left foot 25 years ago. I’ve tried many of these remedies: but the last resort was the injections of lidase and I had ultrasound on my heel with the same lidase. Since then, everything was fine until May of this year. Now my right heel hurts. So far, n-o-t-h-i-n-g, no relief!

Lyudmila

I struggled for almost a year. I got injections in my heel, used salt, ointments, and a lot more... Then I got to a doctor who recommended medical bile. I did compresses. It got much easier, but I used up a bottle in a week and it hasn't fully gone away. I wasn't limping anymore, but as long as I keep doing it, it helps; if I stop, it hurts again. I remembered an old recipe: a spoonful of honey, a spoonful of dry mustard, and a spoonful of flour, mix it into a dough and apply it to the heel, cover it with plastic wrap – it warms up nicely and the pain went away. Give it a try! I'm flying now. But I also need to stretch my legs. Stand on your toes, then on your heels. Move sideways on the soles, like doing the twist dance.

Larisa wrote a recipe (see above): pour hot water into a basin, on the 1st day 1 box of matches, on the 2nd day 2 boxes, and so on. But what to do with the matches? It's not clear.

Tamara

My mom had a heel spur, and she was advised to use a naftalan liniment - it's based on Baku oil. Everything went away and she was never troubled by pain again. I don't know if this medicine is available now; maybe there's an alternative.

I am 55 years old. Ten years ago I was diagnosed with a heel spur (a bone growth in the shape of a thorn on a rose), I don't remember how I was treated, but I found a note in my medical record – ultrasound with hydrocortisone ointment; I also don't remember how many times it was done, but for some reason, I believe it helped. But that's not the point: I went to a regional hospital, paid for the consultation, they asked me to take some X-rays - correctly I suppose... and they sent me for not very cheap extracorporeal shock wave therapy. I felt hopeful – new technologies, but it didn’t go as expected; if we disregard the pain, costs, and the schedule that I had to adjust to (I think it was around 3000 rubles per session), it would have been nice to have an appointment at a convenient time for me. And again, that’s not the point, the thing is that during the third procedure, the machine BROKE DOWN!!! And when it will be fixed, even the Almighty probably doesn't know. Conclusion: money has been invested, help has not been provided, and consequently, it is unknown when the procedure will continue. I am not a doctor, and if (if I decide to extend the procedure) time will be lost, I will have to start all over again – the professor will certainly not take responsibility for the breakdown of the machine and the interruption of the procedures. Instead, they will start charging me again. But the most important thing is not this at all, WHERE IS OUR FREE MEDICINE!!! Damn it with this medicine – we'll manage ourselves: we’ll apply, roll, and smear (God knows with what); by some comments, you marvel at how inventive our sick people are – WE CLING TO ANY NONSENSE. Of course, I understand the medics – they want to eat their bread with butter and caviar, but don’t forget about US in between smearing their bread. AH - NO. I want to go to the regional hospital again, again for a paid consultation, because in a normal queue, you might not get served. I’m just curious – WHAT WILL I BE OFFERED NOW – THE MACHINE IS DEAD.

I had a spur on my left foot. The only thing that helped was an injection in my heel at the Dikulek Clinic. I don't remember what the medicine was, but it worked immediately and I haven't been bothered by it at all for 6 years!

Elena

I have been suffering from this condition for about 7 years. When it first started, I had no idea what it was. But my body hinted to me. I did exercises: walked on my heels, on the inner and outer sides of my feet, and used a foot massager. I am quite full-bodied, all the doctors unanimously say to lose weight, but it's not that simple. In general, I cannot completely get rid of the spurs, but I made a compress from bile, as mentioned above, used up the whole bottle, it got easier, I was able to stand on my feet in the mornings, and it was easier during the day too. A month ago, I read народные рецепты (folk recipes): make baths from cold water, they say the spur fears cold. Pour cold water into a basin, dip your feet in the water, I have it on both feet and sit for half an hour, do this every day, but how long for whom, I have been doing it for about two weeks, sometimes skipping, the feeling after the first procedure is strange. It feels like the sand was even, and after the cold, it gathered in a bunch. I feel better, I stand on my feet in the morning and there is not a strong limp, but I do not stop massaging. Another recipe: an egg, in a mayonnaise jar and pour vinegar essence just above the egg. Close the jar for 5 days in the dark. Then mix everything and add 125 grams of butter. Done. In gloves, rub the ointment into the area of salt deposits for 10-15 minutes or apply as a compress for 1.5-2 hours, if it burns, add more oil. Treat for a week, rest for a week. I haven't tried it. Good luck.

Tatyana

It's been 4 months of this terrible pain in my heel. Compresses, wraps, rolling a pin, even acupuncture... A friend suggested I apply a magnet to my heel. How should I properly use it in the treatment of heel spurs, and is it allowed?

Nina

25 years ago, I cured my gallbladder issues with bile after 10 sessions, but four years ago, the pain began again. For some reason, the bile didn't help. I think the concentration has become weaker than before. They gave me a different recipe: a bottle of triple cologne, 5 pieces of bitter pepper, a bottle of iodine, and a bottle of valerian in equal volumes. Infuse for 3 days and apply at night.

Rita

There's so much written here that it's overwhelming. You can also use an axe or a guillotine.

Sergei

My mom treated heel spurs with a grandparent's method: she heated vegetable oil in a frying pan and dipped her heels in it; when the oil cooled down, she warmed her feet on a hot stone until the pain completely went away.

Irina

Well, I don't know, there's a lot of nonsense here, I've picked out some tips for myself, I'll try them and then I'll write back.

Olga

My mother-in-law cured herself with urine. She's strongly advising me to do the same. I'm trying it out.

Elena

The doctor recommended meloxicam tablets, they helped with the pain, I don't know for how long. You might want to try them, maybe they will help. The medicine is very cheap.

Nelya

I cured my heel spurs with two injections in my heels, 8 laser treatments, and it all went away, after suffering for 2 years.

hope

They will torture you with force. So it is better to treat radical methods instead of vinegar, urine, burdock, honey, etc. if you have a serious inflammation (fasciitis). And UWT - I agree - thrown money. I do not recommend! Wishing everyone good luck and recovery. And most importantly, getting rid of this nasty and very painful ailment. If I undergo radiological treatment and there is a significant improvement (but that will only be in November 2013, as I need to gather some money) I will share my impressions and report back. Respectfully to all those suffering from heel spurs - Muscovite Larisa Evgenyevna.

Larisa

Dear "colleagues in misfortune"! I've been suffering from heel spurs (these are salt deposits in the form of cartilage growths on the heel bones!) since around 2007. In 2008, I underwent a course of shock wave therapy (SWT) instead of the planned 5-6 procedures (each costing 1000 rubles), I ended up having 16 sessions, as the doctor was very surprised that it wasn't helping. I paid for 10 procedures and got 6 for free - they were hoping for a positive effect. We never got that and I left with residual pain, though it had calmed somewhat. I could only wear soft shoes; I couldn't stand barefoot. Three years later (in 2011), the spurs woke up again, and for the past 2 years, I've been feeling them strongly. In August 2013, the pain returned, just like 5 years ago - I'm limping, my heels are twitching, aching, and there are shooting pains. It's terrible! My last hope is the Institute of Radiology and Radiotherapy on Kaluzhskaya (in Moscow). Those who have undergone treatment there, which consists of 2-3 procedures (paid, but I don't know how much because the doctor determines the number of procedures and the intensity of the X-rays). Some acquaintances who were treated there 25 years ago don't remember having heel spurs anymore, others 10 years ago, and someone else 15 years ago consulted them. Maybe I'll be lucky too. The pain is unbearable even at rest. As for folk remedies - it's all useless to someone with serious spurs. Injections in the heel - are very harmful. They only temporarily dull the pain, and then it returns anew.

Put dandelion leaves in a sock and walk for 2 hours. Do this for 2 days, and you can forget about the spur.

Dmitry

Good people, don't forget that we are individuals; what helps one person may not help another. I was given a shot in my left heel when I was about 7 or 8 years old, and thank God it worked. But for my other heel, it took a year, and now these pains are back. I'll try the things mentioned here; maybe something will help.

Guest

I don't understand how a heel spur can be cleaned with a pumice stone if it's inside; people probably confuse it with an internal corn, it's like a core, you can see it. I'll try different methods, but I was advised to break it, no matter how much it hurts. And about the dog licking and the pumice, that's ridiculous. My surgeon told me that a heel spur is incurable, and don't agree to surgery, it's pointless.

Svetlana

My mom was helped by saltwater baths - a pack of salt for a bucket of water, soak 10 times, the water can be heated, and you can use the same one. For me, the baths didn't help, but woolen socks soaked in salt helped; I wore them all winter and slept in them, and for 15 years I haven't thought about my heels. A friend was helped by a Chinese massage ointment - those big yellow jars with a drawing of two feet.

Galina

Peace be upon you! For the third year, I have been suffering and have tried almost everything: X-ray therapy, shock wave therapy, Diprospan several times, iodine, novocaine, folk remedies. Now I am drinking black seed, which heals all diseases except death, and I will try hijama. God willing, we will be rid of this ailment.

Ten years ago, I started having pain in my heel; they said it was a spur. I was advised to make compresses at night with BISHOFITE (a extract from brown coal). It helped. But since the spur was quite advanced, I had to undergo treatment for a month. Bishofite is an oily liquid; we poured it onto a cloth, soaked it well, applied it to the heel, and wrapped it in plastic and something warm. In the morning, we got up, removed the compress, wrapped the cloth in bishofite in plastic (mandatory!!), because if exposed to air, the cloth with bishofite turns to stone. In the evening, we opened it again, poured more solution, and did another compress. Until it helps. Now the pain has started again, so I'm doing compresses once more. Bishofite is sold at the pharmacy and is inexpensive.

Tatiana

I already wrote that the first aid is a rolling pin - it (the spur) needs to be placed... that is, roll the rolling pin over the pain as often and for as long as possible, then I tried everything that can be tried (folk remedies), so the pain recedes and then starts to throb again, but after using the rolling pin it becomes easier to walk. Now every evening I go to bed with a hot water bottle and warm up my spur, in addition, I use ointments before the hot water bottle, Maclura ointment, the orange one, can be bought, and in the morning before leaving for work, I use any other ointment or cream for the spur. These procedures worked well for me, continue doing this until the pain recedes completely. Give it a try. It helped me)

Evgenia

Nina. I had a bone spur in 2009 on my right foot, and I treated it with rice. The treatment took 1 kg of rice. In the evening, I would pour a spoonful of rice into a glass and fill it with water up to a quarter of the glass, then put everything in the fridge. In the morning, I'd wake up at 5 am, cook the soaked rice, and eat it. The trick is that before taking the rice and after taking it, you should not drink or eat anything for 4 hours, and you need to exclude meat and salty foods. I ate everything without salt. Then my bone spur went away. But alas, this June, it came back to my left foot. Ultrasound treatment over 10 sessions didn't help me, and neither did burdock with honey or onion. There is some relief, but sometimes I still feel discomfort. I need to gather strength again and treat it with rice; I hope it will help me once more.

4 years ago I treated spurs on both feet with radiology, now it's been 3 months of terrible pain. I've tried magneto-laser therapy, ultrasound, and all folk remedies, and the painkillers don't help. They say that after radiology nothing will help and I don't know what to do.

Natalia

A year ago, I was still suffering because of this. In the beginning, the pain was mild, but gradually it got stronger to the point where I had almost lost hope for improvement. In the first few months, hot salt baths helped, then at night I would apply honey and salt ... I also rubbed Indian onion, and drew a dark "circle" on my heel using my favorite poodle's fur in a sock ... everything was effective, but only for a short while. The kids bought a cat claw, but that didn't help. I was feeling very down. My heel "burns" - I can't step on it. A friend advised me to finally consult an experienced doctor, Vadim Rifkatovich Bikbulatov. I called and had him come to my home. He gave me a local injection with Diprospan. I haven't felt pain for 3 months now!

I was applying the kombucha nonsense. Now they've said I need to steam it in fly agaric infusion. I found the fly agaric and will steam it. This will be the last battle; after this, I will either go for injections or amputation)))) I have matured after the last two-hour walk. I agree to everything.

Galina

3 years ago I was struck by this misfortune, I didn't know what to do. I wandered around the internet, read recipes, and immediately dismissed everything that could cause skin burns. This recipe helped me: steam your legs, mix honey and salt in equal parts, apply to your feet, cover with a bandage, put on a plastic bag and woolen socks, and then sit with a heating pad. I placed the heating pad on my legs and fell asleep with it. After 5 sessions, I noticed significant improvement; I need to do 10. I forgot about the spur for 2 years.

Elena

spurs are treated with a dry hot item. For example, a stone. Ordinary brick helped me. It needs to be heated until hot enough for the heel to tolerate that heat. At first, it will be very painful. When you feel that the painful spot on your heel is very sore, you need to lift your heel to let the pain pass and heat it again. Repeat this several times in one session. You will feel relief from the first time. You need to do this every day until it goes away. It took three sessions for me. It has been eight years since then. Spurs really do not like wet compresses.

Tatiana

For the first time, when I had a spur, a balm made of fat, egg, and vinegar essence helped me. After two weeks, it was all gone, I didn't even notice. But my acquaintance was helped by an insole with a hole in the middle made of ordinary felt. He placed it under his heel in his shoes and after a week it was all gone!

Irina

For one year, I treated with the herb claytonia. 2-3 months in the summer. It helped. Many years have passed. A heel spur has appeared on the other heel. I've been suffering for half a year and can't get cured.

Lyudmila.

Neither ultrasound, nor electrophoresis, nor ointments, nor bile, nor rolling with a rolling pin help at all. I've been on sick leave for a month, and I don’t know what to do?

Dima

All advice is different; I'm also dying from heel pain! I don't know what to do, but if I'm running in heels and not in flat shoes, nothing hurts.

Valentina

If your heel hurts when walking, it may not just be a spur. I had an X-ray done, and it turned out I have arthritis in addition to the spur. So, it's better to go to the hospital.

Elena

I APOLOGIZE (I will fix it) SO IT'S BEEN ALREADY THE SECOND MONTH I'VE BEEN SUFFERING FROM HEEL SPUR PAIN!! and further.....

Maria

I've been suffering for the second month with severe pain in one leg. I haven't had an X-ray but started looking up everything on the internet, and the pain hasn't completely gone away. I thought I'd at least go for physiotherapy. The doctor prescribed UHF and ultrasound therapy. After the 6th session, I could stand on my feet freely and without pain. Starting today, I've begun applying medical bile on my foot to continue and treat the remaining inflammation! That's how I healed myself!! Thank God!! Try it like I did! Maybe it will help you too! I think it's important to approach treatment properly and have patience! STAY HEALTHY!

Try this recipe - 1 bottle of "Triple" cologne, 1 bottle of valerian tincture, 10 tablets of analgin. Grind the analgin into powder, mix everything and let it steep for a week. At night, dampen a linen cloth, place wax paper (can be for baking) on top, then polyethylene, and bandage. My sister suffered from a spur for a long time. Nothing helped - blocks, ultrasound, ointments prescribed by the surgeon. I gave her this recipe. One bottle of the mixture was enough. Now she walks without pain. I warn you, the skin from the heel may peel off.

Margarita.

Foil is complete nonsense. I used to apply it in rolls, and it turns to crumbs after just 10 minutes of walking. I did everything they say here. The injection is very painful, but I will probably have to go again; it didn’t hurt after a week. But I know for sure it helps many people. My grandfather soaked his foot in alcohol for 10 days, and it helped. For women, a heel of 4-5 cm helps (the doctor advised this), and my friend's pain went away from wearing heels. It didn’t help me because I don’t wear heels (there’s a reason). Now, I’m putting a mushroom on my heel at night (the one they drink) - a woman said it went away. If it helps, I'll write.

please advise how to heal a heel spur permanently, it hasn't gone away for 2 years, I'm only 16 years old, please...

K

I was advised to make night compresses with medical bile. Unfortunately, in my case, it did not work. I'll try applying the "Zvezdochka" balm, maybe it will relieve me of the unbearable pain, although I have very little faith in it. Don't get sick!!!

Venera

I've been troubled by a heel spur for 2 years. I've tried everything: shock wave therapy, laser treatment, and folk remedies. It's all nonsense. Everyone is different, so it should be an individual approach. It feels like I've thrown away money for nothing. You really have to wait until it settles in its place. That's all. And rice is very good without salt.

Lulek

already wrote - soak a glass of rice in 0.5 glasses of water for 8 hours - it will absorb the water - boil - divide into 3 parts - 9-12-15 - eat with boiled beets - otherwise the crankshaft will seize - don't eat anything else - the rice will absorb the spur - you can dance in a day - vasya. Forgot about the spurs for 10 years. 62 years old.

vasya

Kind people, I read your advice, thank you, and I am determined to get rid of this nasty spur. It has tormented me so much, but I will not give up. The doctors said to treat myself, so we will tackle it ourselves. I will try everything you suggest; I will defeat it regardless. Wishing everyone victory and health so that we can dance, sing, and enjoy life.

Tatiana

official medicine recommends lying on the couch with your legs up for at least two weeks when illness appears, until you recover.

Alexander

At least a couple of weeks, until it heals)) I fundamentally agree, I think the best way is just to disappear for 2 weeks, rather than suffer for years. Consider whether your work is worth 2-3 years of suffering...

Alexander

I tried bile, was hammering with a rolling pin for a week, and it doesn't help. I've used various creams, at the initial stage I took anti-inflammatory tablets and ointments, now I've been to Anapa, the hot sand and sea help a lot, I brought volcanic clay with me, I will try it out.

Alexander

How many sufferers there are with this problem! I wasn't spared the misfortune of "heel spur". At night, I applied a slice of lemon to my heel, securing it with a gauze bandage. In the morning, it felt better, but by the afternoon, the pain returned. I started making a compress from crushed aspirin mixed with the "ROOT" balm from "Siberian Health" - I felt an improvement. Wishing everyone good health!

Zinaida

I received three injections from the dog trainer, and it got even worse; the pain has intensified.

Galina

I've been suffering from a heel spur for a year. I've tried everything. My heels have peeled several times. Today I went to the surgeon. The X-ray showed a spur. They prescribed ultrasound with prednisone and compresses with dimexide diluted with water 1 to 3 plus 1 ampule of novocaine plus 1 diclofenac. I'm going to try it. Hopefully, it'll help. The bile only helped in the first few days. Then the unbearable pain returned. I applied aspirin with vodka and cabbage with honey. All of it was pointless.

Flura

try mixing 50g of natural butter and 50g of dry mustard, make small balls and put them in the freezer, apply to the heel at night (just apply them in such a way that the mixture does not touch the skin of the leg, it will hurt) wrapping it in plastic and putting on a sock, it helps

Larisa

The heel pain has been unbearable for a week... They said it's a spur. My grandmother suggested that before distilling the moonshine, I should take 3 liters of mash. Heat it and steam my heel with it. I'll try it and report back. Where can I even get the mash?

Felix

The heel spur will continue to bother you until it grows and bends on its own. Wait for that moment and don't torture yourself!!!

Tamara

With a heel spur, you should walk in heels of 4-5 cm. And over time, it bends, and it really helps.

Svetlana.

to treat corns, pick dandelions, put them in a sock and walk for 3 hours for 2 days, and then you can run

Dmitry

nothing helps. Treatment is individual for everyone.

Olga

I boiled potato peels and steamed my legs in this broth for 5 days straight for 10 minutes. I haven't felt any heel pain for 10 years.

natali

I’ve read so many recipes here, my head is spinning. I also have a spur. My colleague said she went through shock wave therapy twice and everything went away, she hasn’t felt pain for several years. Another acquaintance was also irradiated with an X-ray at the hospital, and she hasn’t felt pain for about 8 years. I also completed the first course of this radiotherapy today. I don’t know how dangerous this X-ray is for health if you need to go through it 8-10 times.

Valentina

I'm going to the sea soon to try hot stones

faith

People! You don't just write, but also read others. Once again, SHPORO and SHIPITSA are different ailments. And with a spur, you can't apply vinegar to the ailment, nor can you poke it with a needle. With a SPUR, there are no ailments on the skin. You need to try different remedies; what didn't help one person may work very well for another. My mom benefited from the joint cream "Sofya". But this remedy didn't help me.

guest

I've tried everything, nothing helps. I'll try dog saliva.

Elena

AND I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BOARD AND ROLL. AND I FLOAT IN SALT WATER, THEN I RUB CREAM FOR HEELS AND ROLL AGAIN. IT STARTS TO HELP, DON'T GIVE UP!!!

Lydia

The sea helps, of course through exacerbation, but it helps. My mother cured it this way, she kept hitting her heel on the threshold, and for 2 years she hasn't thought about it.

Irina.

I got heel spurs when I bought flat-soled sandals to wear at work in winter... came down on my own head... The DIPSROSPAN injections helped a bit, and by the way, I felt a side effect - my potency increased, my wife appreciated it))) Now they are hurting again in the mornings, I don't know how to treat it... We were walking with my son in night-time Moscow, those damn heel spurs ruined all the fun, I went into a night pharmacy, bought NAIZ tablets, it seemed to help for a day. Now, in emergencies (walking, shopping, etc.) I will have to swallow this chemistry. Who knows how often DIPSROSPAN can be injected?

Andrei

I'm sharing the recipe right away, I found out by chance - you need to follow the scheme strictly. So, pour hot water into a basin, on the 1st day 1 box of matches, on the 2nd - two, on the 3rd - three, and so on until the 10th day (10 boxes), and then in decreasing order. After that, you shouldn't go out anywhere, it's better to do this before bed. Before this, I did ultrasound, now I'm halfway through the scheme. It’s just a miracle how it helps. Try it, it costs nothing, maybe it will help someone, I will be glad.

Larisa

Just the other day I 'encountered' this pain. The pain was sharp, and I couldn't stand on my heel. The first aid in this case? An ordinary rolling pin for baking. You have to roll the pin over your heel through the pain. As often and for as long as possible. The spur will turn over and lie flat, which makes walking easier.

Evgenia

I have been suffering for a long time, I did two blockages. All this is nonsense. I advised you to use fly agarics, but they are not available yet, and by the time you make the tincture, you could go crazy. Here’s another piece of advice, I don’t know for how long it will help, but it helped me right away. USE IT FOR YOUR HEALTH.

Pour water into a basin, throw in a chicken leg, read it on the waning moon 3 times.
AS THE COCK FLAPS ITS WINGS AT DAWN, STOMPS WITH ITS SPURS, DISPLAYING ITSELF BEFORE DAWN, MAY IT FLAP ITS WINGS, STOMP WITH MY SPURS AND DISPLAY ITSELF BEFORE DAWN, NOT SEPARATING FROM MY SPURS. LET THE SPURS GO ON THE COCK FROM THE SERVANT OF GOD (NAME) AMEN.
Throw the leg into the trash.

IF IT HELPS ANYONE, -LIGHT A CANDLE FOR MY HEALTH...

Olga

Tomorrow I'm going to the doctor. I've been enduring the pain for 3 years.

Kolia

I forgot to mention - the potatoes should be raw.

Olga

Many have found relief from heel spurs using potatoes: grate them and apply to the heel overnight, then remove in the morning, placing everything in a bag and repeat for 10 days. On the tenth day, bury all 10 potato wraps, or rather the bags, in the ground and the pain goes away forever. I don't know how, but it works. Many don’t complete the treatment because the pain is terrible when the wrap and bag are on the foot, pulling in a way, but afterwards the pain disappears.

Olga

Thank you to Vladimir for the interesting information about heel spurs. I believe that all compresses are only a temporary help; we need to stop the process of salt deposition, strengthen the bones and joints holistically. And also - buy quality shoes. There is so much junk out there, even in expensive stores. With poor quality lasts, the load on the foot increases. It seems to me I got a spur when I started wearing ballet flats and buying cheap shoes.

Hope

In our time, shock-wave therapy will solve all your problems in 8 sessions. I've had 4, and it has become much easier. I need to find time and close this issue forever. Low heels, orthopedic insoles - a life sentence. No ballet flats. Slippers are also bad.

Lyudmila

I cured my heel spurs with a plant called jerusalem artichoke, also known as earth pear. You brew the stems and flowers and steam your feet. It helps remove salts. I tested this method myself. I suffered for six months, and after three sessions, it was gone.

Lida

Hello. I don't know how your methods work, but I initially had a spur on one foot. I treated it with natural pig bile. A year later, I developed a spur on the other foot. I treated it with birch tar. Every evening before bed, you need to cut half an onion, pour a little tar on it, and apply it to the sore spot. Wrap it with an elastic bandage and go to sleep. Do this every night. It's a long process, but it really helps. Stay healthy...

Natalia

What foolishness people sometimes write. Don't confuse calluses on the sole with calcareous deposits on the joint. It is commonly called a spur. I agree with one response - wrap your head in foil. I would also recommend applying all sorts of herbs, smearing lard on it, putting a pickled cucumber on, wrapping it in foil, putting a copper basin on top, and all of this on your head. Perhaps something will stop hurting.

Elena

NOT HELPING: medical bile, "Asterisk" balm, burdock, orthopedic insoles. Soaking with sea salt and applying baby cream at night somewhat relieves pain.

Zhanna

I went to the doctor for UHF electrophoresis treatment, but it was all nonsense; I got even worse. I'll try the star remedy again.

Hope

I've been suffering from a heel spur for a couple of years now. I have spurs on both feet, as the X-ray showed, but only my right foot hurts. Interestingly, that's also where the bone on my big toe is growing (apparently, these things are related -- deformation due to heavy loads on my feet, uncomfortable shoes in the past, metabolic issues, and the extra weight gained -- all in one bottle :)). I tried shockwave therapy last year, went for only 4 sessions, although I aimed for 10, but couldn’t continue as I went to places where this physiotherapy procedure is not available. They asked if it was painful? It was quite painful for me, but it doesn’t last long, the pain is about the same as when walking, perhaps a bit sharper, but tolerable. The main thing is to do a laser procedure before SWT -- it acts as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. Now I only wear sneakers, and I put heel pads in them (cut from thick soft flip-flops). At night, I apply "heel spur" ointment, and in the morning -- I do taping. To be honest, I haven’t bought sports tape yet, but I make the bandage with regular adhesive plaster. The plaster bandage helps to fix the foot, so the spur doesn’t dig into the tissue it tears. I really want to start the exercises I found on this site, but so far my legs won’t cooperate :). This type of footwear and the plaster bandage have significantly made my life easier. The pain is fading, and I even have hope -- to run again. Wishing everyone good luck and patience!

Galina

I’m also suffering from a heel spur, sometimes to the point of tears! I had an injection, it didn't help! Can you suggest what to treat it with?

Svetlana

Someone wrote that she cured her son's spur with onion and tar, and that it (the spur) fell off and there were some needles on the sore.. nonsense! What nonsense!! The spur is inside, you can't see it from the outside, only an X-ray can show.. whether it is there or not.. it’s probably some callus.. write something relevant, otherwise it's about nothing..

Tatiana

I boil celandine and apply this paste on a cloth to my heel. I put on a bag and a sock. It helps.

Natalia

A year ago, I had a spur on my right foot. I found treatment options on the internet and it helped. Every evening, you need to soak the affected foot, you can use salt and herbs (I did it without those), after which you generously apply a rich cream (I used Nivea), put on a regular sock and then a wool sock on top, and sleep. The pain was gone in a week.

Lena

....a month ago we did a 'blockade' with DIPROSPAN and something ... injected into my heel.
here we go again... the pain is unbearable and I'm groaning like an old lady, what to do???

Marina

With plantar fasciitis and joint diseases, generally with bone pain, it is necessary to take a course of lilac tincture (better white, but any will do) at least once a year for about two months. Mix with vodka in a 1:10 ratio, let it steep for 10 days in a dark place. Take 30 drops 2-3 times a day 20 minutes before meals. For fasciitis, also drink and apply compresses made from the same tincture (lilac flowers) at night. Every year, when lilacs bloom, I take this tincture for prevention. At 55 years old, I don't know what "bone pains" feel like. A friend cured her plantar fasciitis using this method (plus compresses). She took it for 3 months. If necessary, you can take 2-3 courses a year.

I was taking salt baths. I applied medical bile. I walked around all day long. Nothing helped; Now I'm going for physiotherapy. In the evenings at home, I heat salt (dry compress) for 15 minutes. I apply Fastum gel and put on Dimexid (dilute 1 to 4) for 30-40 minutes. There is some relief, but I still feel the spur. I don’t know if it will help to make it completely go away????? It’s just some kind of horror(((((((((((((((

Inna

This morning I couldn't get on my feet... the pain feels like my heel is broken... apparently it's a spur... yesterday I barely made it home... this morning I soaked my feet in hot water... it seemed to get better... I read all the advice... I'll go to the pharmacy for Ortofen... I think I'll start applying the ointment I brought from Thailand... it seems to be similar to the Vietnamese star... the smell is terrible, but what can you do... I'll report back whether it helped or not...

Lelya

I also have a spur on my left heel; I had an x-ray done) the doctor prescribed Voltaren injections, baths with sea salt, and Horse Power balm. I did the injections and still take the baths, but instead of the balm, I make a compress with medical bile. The injections worked well at first, but now I feel pain again.

Elena

I did UHT 3 times with no results, now I tried pharmacy bile, the pain went away on the second day, but a bump like a corn appeared on my heel. Please advise what to do? Thank you.

Victoria

I have a heel spur for two months now. It's due to flatfoot. I teach therapeutic exercise and do exercises every day. This is due to a metabolic disorder. I healed it for the first time at the age of 40 with radiation. And now I don't know - so far all the remedies I have tried do not help. Even the blockades do not help. I apply grape leaves with honey and polyethylene overnight - so far I see no results.

Anna

Yes, it's really nonsense, all sorts of ointments and applications, etc., and so on. There are certainly competent doctors (I know this for sure now). It's really necessary to check the entire body, first and foremost blood sugar tests, veins are a must, there could be venous blockage, poor blood flow and circulation, there is venous and arterial insufficiency. I advise consulting with the Vishnevsky Institute (they accept everyone) with any surgeon. This has already been verified for sure. I advise against self-medication. Wishing everyone good health and don't get sick.

Svetlana

I was only told surgery, so I think all of this is nonsense with those folk remedies

Oksana

The exercises helped me, they are simple and can be easily found and watched on YouTube, as well as rolling a bottle with ice, using a supportive insole for the foot, or just a gel heel insert.

Irina

When I was about 20, I developed a heel spur. I tried many things, but nothing helped. I went to a surgeon who confirmed that it was indeed a heel spur and prescribed a medication, though I don't remember which one. During those stagnation times, it was generally unavailable at pharmacies. I was limping around like an old woman. One day, I met an acquaintance who said, 'Why are you limping?' I explained that the spurs were tormenting me, and I had tried everything. She then advised me to crush a pack of analgesics and mix it with a little bottle of either Valocordin or Corvalol, in any case, some heart medication, and to apply it all day long, literally every half hour. I thought it sounded silly; I had already tried so much, but I prepared the remedy, and to my surprise, after applying it for two days, the pain went away. I don’t know what truly helped. They say heel spur pain can suddenly become apparent and just as mysteriously go away. So try anything, something might help.

Elena.

Nothing helped me until I started hitting my painful heel with a hammer several times a day, at first not too hard, then harder and harder! I was already running on the fourth day

Victoria

I will try the infusion made from fly agarics

Olga

Hello everyone! Dear friends, everything needs to be tried, but pills have not yet been invented for this ailment. Before taking any pills, please read the instruction, especially the side effects. After all, a doctor's prescription is not always effective; Movalis will only relieve pain but will not cure, no matter how many you take. Wishing everyone well and good health.

Lana

Try rubbing your foot against felt for 20-30 minutes. Do this for several days. It helped me for a long time. Get well soon!

Elena

The burdock doesn't help either, I've tried it. It does reduce swelling well, that's true. But it doesn't help with spurs at all. I've also tried the asterisk, it's all nonsense.

Elena

Good day, Roza! Is shockwave therapy a painful procedure? If it’s shockwave, then it must hurt.

Elena

Hello everyone! I've had heel spurs on both feet since 2005 - I've tried everything available on the internet, but nothing helps(((( I underwent X-ray therapy - I forgot about the spur on one foot, but the other one is a problem. I limp, and the limp causes lower back pain, and the opposite thigh is awful... I saved up some money and went for shock wave therapy - I'm not limping now, it really helps - I attended 6 sessions, once a week for 3-4 minutes, and I will continue going for SWT.

Roza

Good day, everyone! I also have this problem. I've been suffering for five months now, it's so bad that I want to cry. In the morning, it's unbearable, I only have a spur in my left heel, when I get up in the morning, it feels like my foot is broken, and there's a nail in my heel. It's extremely painful. The same thing in the evening; as soon as I sit down, it's a whole problem. I've tried many of these things. The star, the PYAТKOSHPORE ointments, Golden Mustache with sabre, and I've also drunk the tincture of Sabre, in short, I've tried everything, and compresses at night and pills, nothing helps. Today, I was advised another method. I will try it and write back later. You need to take 10 ampoules of analgin and mix them with one bottle of iodine, soak a folded bandage with this mixture and apply it to the heel in the evening and morning for about 20 minutes until the bandage dries. Perhaps it will help. And I was also advised an ointment - DOLGIT. Give it a try, it might help.

Most people here are talking about spurs, which is even funny to compare with a spine. If a spine causes you such pain and discomfort, then you would probably die from a spur. Those who know what pain from a spur is will understand me.

faith

You won't believe it, but aluminum foil helped me; it took away the main pain in one day, I feel great, you should try it, you won't regret it!!!

moldabek

Why does nobody write about hop? About 20 years ago, I had a spur. It hurt and pulled so much that I couldn't walk. I don't remember how I found out the recipe, but I did it 2 or 3 times and forgot for 20 years, only always wondered why people suffering from spurs don't take advantage of this simple method. It was winter, and according to the recipe, I had to take green hop cones, boil them, and then put them in a bag, with my foot in it, wrap it warmly and sleep like that. I took dried cones and performed this procedure 2 or 3 times and that was it. Now the pain has returned, there are no hop cones yet, and I thought I would find something simple on the forum. I will probably try wrapping leaves and tendrils. If it works, I will share.

I read it, though not everything. In my youth, I had it for 2 years, got injections in my heel, electrophoresis with something, it lasted only for a year. At that time, resting by the sea in Sochi helped; I walked on hot pebbles, and the first three days were always very painful, radiating to the knee, but then it got easier. It has been about 30 years, and the pain has not returned once. Everything else is nonsense.

Lora

The pain is terrible! Thank you for the advice - I will try bile. Also, it seems to me that a star can help too. Wishing everyone good health!

Tatiana

Ultrasound did not help. At the pharmacy, they recommended the ointment-gel "Pyatkospor". I laughed. Not hoping for improvement, I applied it to my heel at night and put on a warm sock - in the morning, for the first time in 2 months, I got up on my foot without pain. The pain, of course, hasn’t completely gone away - but it has significantly improved. The ointment was finished in a week - now I bought ointment with golden mustache, garlic, and clove oil. It’s worse, but it helps too. At least I can get up normally in the morning. I'm afraid of an X-ray - I’ve already accumulated quite the dose over my life. I’m waiting - maybe it will encapsulate - they say that happens. For now, to reduce inflammation and pain, I continue to use the ointments. Orthofen might help, but for those with a sick gastrointestinal tract, an exacerbation is guaranteed.

Alla

I don't know about others, but ortofen helps me. I actually take two pills three times a day instead of one, of course it's a strong dose, but I can do a gypsy dance right now, whereas two days ago I couldn't even stand up without tears.

Irina

I gained 30 kg during pregnancy (unbelievable, I'm shocked) and immediately learned what a heel spur is; the surgeon confirmed it and also found flat feet (never had that before). The procedures he prescribed didn't help: ointments, tablets, ultrasound; in the mornings, I walk on my toes before I can stand normally on my feet. Now it's not just my heels that hurt, but the whole sole. I've been applying compresses with bile at night for a week, and it seems to get a little easier, even though it was written that it would help in three days. Apparently, everyone is different, and the size of the spur varies; mine is 7 mm. I don’t want to get injections because I’m scared, but I will try various recipes, and if anything from the above helps, I will definitely share.

Elena

Hello Valentina, is Diprospan an analogue of Kenalog? The thing is that on 21.12.12 I flew off the ski jump and impacted my heel on a stone. It pierced through the ski and boot like an iron corner, but the skis are unscathed - well done Austrians. 2 months in a V-shaped cast, then 2 weeks with a stick, magnets, and UHF therapy. I limped for 1.5 months, thinking it was supposed to be like that in rehabilitation, but this itch made me take another shot and the doctor congratulated me on acquiring an inseparable friend - A HEEL SPUR. He recommended doing an injection of Kenalog between the joints thoroughly. Some need lubrication for a year, others for a month, but something about these injections scares me in terms of the soft tissues getting used to it and my 'friend' - I DID NOT. That can wait. Now I’m going for UHF therapy again, using Burdock and Macrace at night - there's still swelling above the heel on the outer side of the ankle, it only gets easier after the procedure, and again my foot turns inward / limping / in the morning my first steps are like 'Sharikov in

Exactly, to scrape off the spur, you need to get to it first. Cut the heel to the bone and dig. I would like to see such a person do it without anesthesia! A surgeon injected diprospan into my right heel 7 years ago, and everything has been fine since. And for the left one, I've had 2 injections with a month apart, and it's time for another one. It's not too bad, but it's starting to hurt again. So it's time. The cost of one injection is over 200, and for the procedure, you need to pay 200-300. I don't mind the money, as long as there is an effect, but that’s exactly what’s not visible. All sorts of remedies are for the initial stage, and when the spurs are already like a rooster's... Plus, each time you need to do an x-ray, which is also about 200 rubles, so it adds up to about 700 rubles a month.

How can you pick at a spur or rub it with a pumice stone! You can’t see it! And where exactly to pick and rub is unclear! It’s inside on the heel bone and you can only see it on an X-ray. Are you fools or what: they explain it to you, but you keep talking about your own things!

Valentina

I am amazed by those who excavated the spur. You're confusing something - the spur is a growth inside and it cannot be removed independently, only through UHT - 8 sessions

Nadezhda

Be careful with the essence; I had a burn. I realized that all recipes boil down to one thing: WARMTH!!! I tried bile, which provided relief but for not long. Herbs break down deposits and plenty of drinking helps to flush them out of the body, 'HOT KEYSTONE HERBS'.

Svetlana

As for the "dog licking" - it's an effective method for getting rid of warts. I relieved my daughter of this plague several times. We spread sour cream and let the dog lick it off. And the warts disappeared.

Kasya

Since the spur is a salt growth, I decided to just eat boiled rice without salt, just rice and water, nothing else, and the pain went away after 3 days. Eating salted herring provokes pain. According to this recipe, my acquaintance cured his heel. I also know that all these salty things can be treated with boiled potatoes in their skins (washed thoroughly), and they should be eaten with the skin on.

Kasya

Yeah guys, I have a problem with my hip joint - thought it was bad, recently my husband started complaining about his heel, he gets up limping and it turns out he has a problem too..

Tatiana

I just completed a treatment course in the hospital - electrophoresis, ultrasound, blockade. Result - 0. I'll try "Asterisk" and foil. Hope is not lost yet. If it helps, I'll let you know.

Tatiana

Yes, I agree that shock wave therapy is a waste of money. I had five sessions. I had an X-ray of my heel - the spur increased by 2 cm. I just want to go to the medical center and demand my money back.

Tatiana

It's very easy to treat heel spurs!!! Squeeze garlic onto gauze, cover it with plastic wrap, and apply it to your heels after soaking in warm water for 15 minutes; dry with a towel. Keep the garlic mixture on your heels for 15 minutes. Do this for 15 days. I did this procedure 10 years ago and forgot what SPURS are.

Galina

I went through a shock wave therapy course. 8,000 rubles down the drain (and that's with a DISCOUNT!!!). So don't be fooled. If the course is FREE - give it a try. But if it's paid - think it over 10 times...

sweet

I tried the shock wave method, advertised by Malysheva, but it didn't help, the urine didn't help. Now I have completed a course of radiotherapy; there is a slight improvement, but not completely.

Niklos

I read somewhere that you can fill a sock with dry red pepper and walk around with it. It didn't help.

Love

I have ultrasound plus I roll my heels on a massager and at night I apply crushed snail to my heels. Result zero since in the morning my feet...

Why do spurs appear?

Faith

I read in a magazine an old recipe for heel spur. Take raw potatoes, grate them, and apply them on your heel overnight. Wrap it in gauze and then cover it with plastic; then put on a sock and I also wrapped an old down scarf on top. In the morning, I removed everything. I did this about 5 times and the pain went away; I couldn't walk for six months, thinking I would never walk normally again. Before that, I tried many different recipes, but nothing helped; a simple potato recipe worked. NOW I WALK LIKE BEFORE WITHOUT PAIN.

Natalia

For three years, I was troubled by a heel spur. I tried all the folk remedies, but nothing helped; the pain was unbearable. I bought a gel-cream for feet called "PYATKASHPOR" from the pharmacy, which contains: deionized water, apple cider vinegar, glyceryl stearate, cetearate-20, cetearate-12, cetaryl alcohol, etc., and within 5 days, the pain was gone. It's a very good remedy.
Don't get sick and take care of yourself!

Alexey

100% recipe for heel spurs. A compress made of a mixture of dry mustard and vegetable oil. Apply to the heel for 30 minutes. Then put on a warm sock. Do this three times. This advice was given to me by a doctor. The spur hasn't bothered me for 13 years. Give it a try.

yulasha

Sufferers, we all have our own spurs here... I've been growing them on both legs for three years. I haven’t really treated them, although limping in the mornings has become quite annoying. A year ago, I tried shockwave therapy. I went through eight sessions along with home treatment (shots, pills, ointments, etc.). The result - zero. Don’t waste your money on this nonsense (SWT). Now I’ve read various recipes here in the forum - my head is spinning, I don’t know where to start: either depriving myself of waste materials from hair coverings and stuffing them in socks or experimenting with urine, as it is always handy. But seriously, it worries me so much that I wouldn’t wish it on my enemy, and there’s really no reliable treatment. I’ll have to try everything one after another, but without fanaticism. If something really helps, I’ll definitely write back.
patience to everyone and recovery!!!

Viktor

Since September, my right leg has been hurting. At first, I started having cramps at night. Then, there was pain on the inner side of my right foot, where the indentation is. And that's it... I had an MRI, laser therapy, a block, and ultrasound. I’m applying cabbage with honey, using Ketonal and novocaine. Everything is useless, I’m in a panic. I can walk but then I lie down all evening. I don’t know what will help anymore. I'm waiting for a burdock.

Lyudmila

I read all the tips and reviews. From all the listed ones, I chose: the "Zvezdochka" balm and Dr. Kalinyak's extract for myself. I will try them; maybe there will be an improvement. My legs have been hurting for not so long. Just about two months, but the pain is progressing every day. I wish everyone a speedy recovery.

Olga

Grandma taught me to roll soft bread crumbs on my heel (to make three balls like this). Then these balls are thrown to the chickens (they should peck them up). Grandma cured many people this way.

Victoria

I read all the tips and reviews. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything new. I've been suffering from unbearable pain for 2 years. In the morning, I get up with great difficulty. I can't step on my left heel. I walk a bit, and it seems fine. But after about 4 hours, the hellish pain starts. It's impossible to stand on my feet. I've tried everything. Pine baths, salt baths, and urine. I even tied lilac infused with vodka. I tapped with a rolling pin. I infused banana peels with vodka. I've tied up everything mentioned above. Now I've tied an infusion (egg, vinegar essence, and sunflower oil). If this doesn't help, I'm going to give up on the doctors. I wish everyone good health. And God forbid anyone to suffer such pain.

On Friday, with some snow still not melted, I went to the park and picked a willow branch, wearing rubber boots with woolen socks. On Saturday morning, I woke up with sharp pain in my heels; I thought it was heel spurs. I made salt baths for 2 days, 9 minutes each, no more. At night, I tied foil around my feet, and at night there were no cramps at all; I slept like a baby. Today is the 5th day, it's better. I made cords from twisted cotton, about the thickness of a finger, tightly wrapped them with a bandage, applied them to my heels, put on cotton socks and wool ones, I walk around the house; it's bearable, my heels are burning, feeling hot. I'll keep you updated on what happens next. Hope.

I've been suffering from plantar fasciitis for about three years now((( I'm losing hope; nothing seems to help. I've tried soaking in salt, using ammonia solution, and various compresses on my heel, but all I did was burn my skin, and the pain became even worse. I have spurs on both heels. I'm 26 years old, but because of this condition, my life has turned into hell; I can't go anywhere, after an hour of walking, I can't even stand on my feet, the pain is terrible. I even had to quit my job because of it; it was unbearable. My job required me to be on my feet. Please help me with advice. I'll try using star-shaped cotton and dog hair, and I plan to go for a block, but I no longer believe in anything. This disease is ruining my life. I had excess weight, about 10 kg, I lost weight, but it’s all useless(((

Maria

I am also trying everything possible. I soaked garlic, applied iodine, burned copper coins, used copper wire, and much more. I can barely walk, it hasn't helped.

Antonina

I have tried everything, nothing helps, what should I do?

love

The cornucopia goes away by itself, but it's not pleasant to suffer in waiting. I read in a magazine that you need to put some unwashed dog hair into your sock, as it is. I thought - what nonsense. But my little dog Bosik shared with me. I wore it all day under my sore heel. For about five days, no more. Everything is gone, I can't believe it myself. But the result... Try it, it costs nothing, maybe it will help you too! Wear it all day, and don't wash the hair, I repeat! I wish you success!!!

Tanyusha

nothing helps at all, I even tried applying a dog's skin.

Natalia

Today I'll try it with a star, then I'll let you know

Olga

They say to take Orthofen tablets. It will just relieve the pain, but not cure you.

Olga

I healed the spur with a Salipod patch. Every evening, I steamed my heel in hot water, thoroughly cleaned the spur with a pumice stone, and put on the patch for the night in a sock. I did this for about 8 days, and it all went away! I didn't expect it, as I had been suffering with my heel for two years!!!

Yulia

Take 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of honey, and a 5 ml bottle of iodine. Mix them, spread on a bandage, and apply it overnight to the heel, preferably on a day off, cover with plastic wrap and tie it. Walk until lunch. Repeat again at night. Do this three times. It helped me once. I was in pain for 2 years.

Galina

Alright, we laughed. Bone spur (heel spur)

The heel bone can have an outgrowth in the form of a wedge or a spur. This outgrowth is called a heel spur.

A heel spur can occur as a result of injury, gout, or flat feet. Less commonly, a sudden increase in body weight can lead to a heel spur.

SYMPTOMS OF A HEEL SPUR:
Sharp pain when stepping on the heel.
METHODS OF TREATING SPURS:

During the acute stage, patients are prescribed analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications. Sometimes electrophoresis is used. Special insoles with holes for heel spurs also help. In particularly severe cases, the heel spur is surgically removed.

FOLK REMEDIES FOR TREATING SPURS:

1. 100 g of unsalted fresh pork fat or lard should be poured over with 100 ml of vinegar essence. Next, break 1 raw chicken egg (with the shell) into this mixture. Infuse in a dark place for 21 days, stirring periodically. When the remedy is ready, steam the heel, then apply the ointment on the spur and wrap the heel. As soon as it starts to burn, remove the compress and wipe the foot with a napkin. Duration – 35 days.
2. Grate a clove of garlic on a fine grater. Apply the paste to the heel, secure with a bandage, and keep for 3-4 hours. Do this daily until fully healed.
3. Grate half a bulb of onion with birch tar and apply to the heel spur.
4. Heat a copper object (e.g., a coin) over a fire to about +45 degrees Celsius. Attach it to the heel.
5. Grate one raw potato on a fine grater along with the skin. Place this mixture on a piece of gauze and bandage it to the heel. Secure with plastic wrap. Keep the compress overnight. Duration – 1 week.
6. Placing a piece of aluminum foil on the spur can help reduce pain while walking.
7. Heat 3 liters of water to about +40 degrees Celsius. Dissolve 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 10 drops of iodine in it. Soak your feet in this solution for 10 minutes, then dry your feet and apply iodine to the spur.
8. Mix a bottle of ammonia with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Soak a cotton pad with this mixture and apply it to the painful heel for 30 minutes.
9. Warm 100 g of honey in a water bath. Dissolve 5 g of mummy in the warm honey. Rub the affected heels with the resultant mixture at night.

HERBS FOR TREATING SPURS
1. In summer, pick burdock, plantain or coltsfoot in the forest. Tie a leaf to your heel and walk like that all day. The leaf can be periodically replaced with a fresh one.
2. Tea made from lingonberry leaves will also help with a spur.
3. In spring, pick acacia flowers and cover them with vodka. Use 1 part flowers to 3 parts vodka. Infuse for 2-3 weeks, strain, and apply to the spurs.
4. Bog byzantine (sabelnik) will also help. Use 1 part sabelnik to 3 parts vodka. Infuse for 2-3 weeks, strain, and apply to the spurs.
5. You can also try elderberry. Fill a jar ¾ full with red elderberries and then top off with vodka or alcohol. Infuse for 7 days in a dark place, strain, and use for applying to spurs.

HEEL SPURS - HOW TO TREAT THEM? DOCTORS' OPINION.
In treating heel spurs, it is essential to first reduce inflammation. In the acute stage, bed rest is recommended, and wearing a plaster splint for about 2 weeks is advisable. Antibiotics may also be necessary. Wearing a special insole with a recess or soft padding under the spur is mandatory. If the spur grows from the back, it is recommended to wear backless shoes (clogs).

In caring for heel spurs, warm baths (with soap, soda, sea salt) can be helpful. Foot and calf massages, as well as special exercises, are also beneficial.

Many are prescribed physiotherapy - electrophoresis of potassium iodide or novocaine, ultrasound with hydrocortisone, ozokerite-paraffin applications, etc.

If nothing helps, X-ray therapy in small doses may be used. This treatment is conducted in courses.

In particularly severe cases, surgical treatment may be necessary. After this, correct rehabilitation treatment is crucial.

the main thing is to bring the urine to a boil

I also tried vinegar, it didn’t help, but using rice water really did help, not just for me but also for the neighbors on the fifth floor to get rid of their runny noses.

Vladimir

I work as a salesperson all day on my feet, I use Orthofen cream to relieve the pain.

Lena

First, get a photo - find out the diagnosis. If it’s a spur, relieve the heel - buy insoles and heel cups. Apply warming ointment. Tablets - Airton and Midocalm.

Lyuba

Apply garlic and keep it on your heel for 40-45 minutes; 10 procedures are enough for a year, and the pain goes away

Lyudmila

I was advised to soak my heels in urine. But I soaked them in vinegar; it didn't help.

Lyudmila

No recipes helped, diprospan provided temporary relief, shockwave therapy eased it a bit, I did intratissue electrostimulation, it became much easier, now I am doing a compress from a fresh tomato, BUT I CAN ALREADY WALK, THE PAIN IS SIGNIFICANTLY LESS!

Galina

Young poplar leaves helped me (you need to apply them with the sticky side). I struggled for 4 years, first my right leg hurt, then my left heel started to hurt. I was treated. I even burned my heel very badly using one method and was treated by a surgeon for 1.5 months.

Zinaida

I also got vaccinated, but the pain is terrible.

Oksana

I struggled for a year. I have heel spurs on both heels and tried everything, including folk remedies. I read a lot online about injections and how painful they are. But there was no way out; my feet hurt so much I could have climbed the walls. I signed up at the Litfond clinic and went to the doctor; she said that one injection was enough, and it was injected into the side of the heel and didn't hurt at all. The doctor said that within 5 days everything would be fine, and it went away for me the next day; no more pain. Thanks to the rheumatologist Yegorova I.N.

Lusya

A doctor told me about using a massager: "You already have inflammation, and you are further exacerbating it." I treated myself for 2 months with various internet remedies - poultices and compresses - to no avail... The doctor prescribed "Movalis" and "Artra", but so far (10 days) there is no improvement...

I felt relieved when I started using the massager with my heel every morning and evening for 15 minutes.

I agree with the guest who said, "how is this possible, nonsense, no, it's a bone spur." I had an X-ray done, and it's clearly visible that a spur is growing from the bone downwards towards the heel (it looks like a rose thorn) and it is inflaming all the soft tissues with its sharp end. And I highly doubt that such a thorn can be removed with honey, salt, radish, and definitely not with foil. I don't know how this is treated, but the doctors said that the pain will subside for a while when the spur stops growing in that direction, like that woman said, "the spur is not in the heel but parallel to the ground."
You are just confusing the heel spur here with some other thing that can be dug out, seen, or dissolved in milk. The bony growth is not going anywhere and will continue to remind you of its presence.

I SUFFERED FOR A YEAR AND A HALF WITH A SPUR... DOCTORS SAID NO SURGERY WOULD REMOVE IT NOW... I USED A ROLLING PIN EVERY DAY WHILE WATCHING TV... NO REMEDIES HELPED. WHERE DID IT GO AND HOW DID IT PASS - TIME JUST REMOVED IT ALL. NOW MY HUSBAND HAS A SPUR. HE SOAKS HIS FOOT IN SALT WATER AND ROLLS THE ROLLING PIN ON THE FLOOR. IT'S BEEN A WEEK. NOTHING IS HELPING. I'LL OFFER PILLS AND A STAR...

Using a radish can cause a severe burn, especially with a compress overnight, that's cruel.

bile pharmacy, compress overnight, until the pain disappears

Who performed the surgery to remove a heel spur?

I CHOSE ARTOFEN FROM THE LIST, IT WON'T HURT TO APPLY IT WITH A LITTLE STAR,,, THANK YOU FOR THE ADVICE,,, I WILL GO INTO ACTION!!!!

My mom has had a spur for six months now and nothing helps as mentioned above. I don’t know what to do, it’s painful to see her suffer. The main thing is the heel is smooth, but the pain is unbearable. If anyone knows how to help, please let me know.

None of the remedies helped me either. My heels would often peel. Sometimes it was so bad that I couldn't step on my heel due to the thin skin. My boots wouldn't fit. Then my foot would swell. I underwent physiotherapy and took all sorts of pills, but nothing changed. But during that time, I started going to Sieragem, and after about 40 days, the pain went away. I thought my spur had completely disappeared. Then I broke my ankle, and the X-ray showed my spur was back, only the spur was not in the heel but parallel to the ankle. The doctor who operated on my leg laughed and said it hadn't gone anywhere. I spent time in a cast, worried the spur would hurt again. But so far, it hasn't. Thank God. Since then, I've been lying on Sieragem, and my heel hurts a bit if I walk too much.

I also tried to treat my heel spur with tar and medical bile. It didn’t help. My husband’s relative suggested the medical device "Doctor Bobyr", and that’s how I cured my leg from this trouble, the heel spur, in three weeks with this device.

I healed my son's spur on his foot with onion and tar. You take one layer off the bulb, smear it with tar, and apply it to the sore spot, then put on a warm sock. Do the procedures at night; we needed 4 procedures. The spur started to dry up, and then it completely came off. You could see dried needles inside the sore, and that’s when I truly realized it was a spur.

my mom burned all the skin off her heel and the spur doesn't go away.

I treated spur with the herb of chickweed. Steep the herb in a basin, dip your legs in and steam them until the water cools. Put on woolen socks. Treat before bedtime. It will feel better in a week.

all folk remedies are not helping so far, they say it's good to cut a sour cucumber lengthwise and tie it on overnight for 15 days

I am currently treating myself with medicinal bile. It helps me; sometimes I don't feel anything for a week, then I feel some discomfort again and start treating myself again.

Do you have a spur or not? I don't know. What can be scraped if the heel is smooth and there are no irregularities? The pain inside is terrible. I have been struggling with it for a year. I have tried all the recipes written here and there is no result. I have done a nerve block with diprospan twice, and everything returned again. Tomorrow I will go to the surgeon again.

I had a spur on my heel, I suffered for a long time and dug it out with a needle and tweezers without a shot, but I definitely treated it with alcohol. The wound healed quickly and everything passed.

I recently had the same issue: I couldn't stand on my heel. I was literally walking on tiptoes. I went to the hospital to see an orthopedic surgeon. They took an X-ray, and it turned out to be a spur. The doctor advised me to go for some treatments, but I immediately declined, as I know from my mother that nothing helps except for a blockade. So I requested an injection, they gave it to me, and the pain was gone the next day. Now it hurts again in the same heel. I will go for a blockade again.

Well, medicine is powerless against this. And the star is nonsense and it doesn't go away by itself. Let's try something else.

Well, if the injections in your heel didn't help, then the star balm certainly won't. It might only temporarily relieve the pain. I've been suffering with heel spurs for 3 years - sometimes on one heel, sometimes on the other, or on both at once. It's impossible to walk. The doctor says it's excess weight. I agree, I need to lose weight. But when you look at the clinic, so many slim people struggle with this issue too, and you think - it must not be just about excess weight. It's again about the incompetence of our medicine. We travel in space, invent some innovative technologies, but we don't know how to cure a spur! I've been constantly in physical therapy rooms for 3 years, treating my heels. I've taken a bunch of pills and had heel injections. Everything returns in a week or two. A friend suggested a recipe - it helped her, but not me. I'll write it down, maybe it will help someone. Whisk a chicken egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of acetic essence. The yolk will thicken and become like cream. Put it in a jar with a lid, store it in the refrigerator. Use this ointment on your heel 3-4-5 times a day, and wear a sock on top. And dear ones, be more informed about the fact that DO NOT CONFUSE A SPUR and A SHIPIGU (SPIKE) - they are absolutely different diseases. A spur is a growth on the bone, and the idea that a dog licked it is just nonsense... Stay healthy!!!

Yesterday I had a block injection done by a surgeon, the medication is called Diprospan, they injected it into my heel, and there is no more pain today.

Two years ago, I bumped my heel against the threshold at home. As a result, they took an X-ray and found a spur growing inside. The doctors gave me injections in my heel twice, but it didn't help. I want to try the Zvezdochka balm, maybe it will help.

Oh dear!!! It hurts so much. I don't know what to do. I will try the Star Balsam.

Nothing from the above has helped me so far. I've been suffering since May. I've tried everything except for pills.

For two years, I had heel pain in both feet. I got X-rays done and was diagnosed with heel spurs. I was prescribed ultrasound treatment for 7 minutes on each heel, which didn’t help at all. I tried folk remedies: I soaked my heels in iodine for about 4 days, and my heels peeled, cracked, and became even more painful. I placed nettle, plantain, and burdock in my shoes—nothing helped. I soaked them in both baking soda and salt, which was useless. I took Orthofen for about a week, 1 tablet three times a day, and the pain went away; I have been walking normally for several months now, and my heels don’t hurt. Overall, I have concluded that they heal on their own after about two years.

Dear girls, you are confusing a heel spur with a wart. I removed the latter this way... I placed a small onion bulb in a cup with vinegar essence for about 12 hours, let it soak, and tied it to the affected area. Before that, it's necessary to steam and preferably remove the hard part of the little lump. Keep it on for 2 to 4 hours; I did it overnight, and it helped. Now there is no problem in that area.

I'VE HAD SPURS FOR 15 YEARS. I HAVE 12 ON BOTH FEET, I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING. EVEN HAD IT CAUTERIZED WITH LIQUID NITROGEN AT THE CLINIC, THE PAIN IS TERRIBLE, YOU CAN'T STAND ON YOUR FEET FOR 4 DAYS AFTERWARDS, THE BURN TAKES A LONG TIME TO HEAL, AND YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT WORK, ALL THE REMEDIES I'VE READ ABOUT HERE ARE USELESS, MAYBE THEY ONLY HELP IN THE EARLY STAGES.

My grandmother taught me how to treat heel spurs. All you need is one black radish. Grate the radish and apply it to your heel at night, of course covering it with plastic wrap and a warm sock. That's it! Do this for 3 nights in a row and the spur will go away. If it disappears right after the first procedure, still complete all 3 to prevent a relapse! I hope my review will be helpful to you!<img alt="smiley" height="20" src="http://www.webzdrav.ru/www/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.gif" width="20">

I found it interesting. I traveled abroad with my child. The day before, I injured my ligament, but I had to go, so I went with a stick. The pain in my heel is terrible. A spur is starting to grow. Every morning I woke up from the pain, and then the whole day was hell; really, it felt like a nail was hammered in. I brought a lot of ointments and pills with me, but there was no effect. My wife tried from the very beginning to rub my heel with the Vietnamese balm 'Star' (someone advised her), but I was just being sarcastic. It has a very sharp smell. Finally, exhausted by the pain, I surrendered. We applied it at night and bandaged it. In the morning, I wake up and, still half-asleep, I realize something is not right. And then it dawns on me that I forgot which foot hurts! Usually, my waking up in the morning was due to sharp pain, but here, I feel nothing! I can't believe it; I jump out of bed and start dancing around, analyzing the sensations in my leg. I catch a frightened glance from my wife. She says, 'I thought you had lost your mind from the pain.' 
  And that's a happy ending. Our companions on the trip looked at me in confusion: I was walking with a stick, grimacing in pain, and suddenly, overnight, it all went away. Probably a malingerer. 
  Since then, I listen to my wife's recommendations!

Here’s what I can say about heel spurs. A spur on the heel is an inflammation, or in other words, plantar fasciitis, which usually occurs as a result of salt deposits on the heel bone.
My heel spur appeared like this: at first, for about 6 months, the pain in my heel only came in the morning when I got out of bed. The pain gradually subsided after 5-10 minutes of walking.
However, I soon noticed that it took me not 5-10 minutes, but much longer to ‘walk it out’. Moreover, the pain was becoming increasingly unbearable.
Traditional medicine is powerless here. My doctor prescribed ultrasound and magnets – nothing helped. I found a clinic where I had 8 sessions of shockwave therapy. Improvement only came after the 5th procedure. I almost stopped limping. The pain became quite tolerable, so I started doing more massage with a roller massager (20-30 minutes every day).
Now I don’t limp anymore. I still feel pain sometimes, especially if I walk for more than 2 hours. But after 10 minutes of rest, it all goes away. I constantly use the roller massager.

Put aluminum foil in your socks and walk around all day, and do this for three days - you need to change the foil and you'll forget about heel spurs. I struggled for two years, tried everything, and only the foil helped.

Heel spur: Heat 1 liter of milk to 70 degrees, add 3 tablespoons of salt, 3 tablespoons of baking soda, immerse your heel and hold it for as long as you can tolerate, continuing until the milk cools down. Repeat this procedure 3-4 times and you will forget what a heel spur feels like.

Hello. What do you mean when you talk about a heel spur? If you are referring to a lump on the heel that can be scraped off, here is a folk remedy: prepare a hot solution of potassium permanganate in a basin. The color should be like cherry compote. Soak your feet in the basin for 30 minutes. Course – 3-4 procedures every other day.

Heel spur treatment, 100 percent effective. I healed both of my heels myself. "Dr. Kalinyak’s Extract" is sold in pharmacies in Moscow, inexpensive. I needed 2 packages for 20 procedures. It contains propolis, analgin, and a lot of other things, with no smell or pain. But it's great. You can write a prescription from St. Petersburg or order it at your pharmacy. I assure you, you won’t regret it. Both heels hurt for about three years; I tried everything. Cabbage, potatoes, raw fish, meat, herbs, nettles, cabbage, etc., all useless. And now I've been walking like a normal person for two years. Thank you, Kalinyak.

I was advised to treat my heel spur with warm baths. Buy 5-6 packets of magnesium from the pharmacy, 
dissolve them in 1 liter of hot water (60 degrees) and soak your feet for 10 minutes, then apply a 
valerian applicator to your heel, put on a polyethylene bag, then a warm sock and go to sleep. Just 10  
sessions are enough.

How is this possible, nonsense,<img alt="no" height="20" src="http://www.webzdrav.ru/www/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_down.gif" width="20">it's just a bone growth

It helped me a lot, thank you very much!

Dog saliva helps a lot. In my childhood, a pet dog licked my spur just twice, and I forgot about it forever. There is some enzyme in dog saliva.
