Re: Heel Pain- Can't figure out why.

These are some initial thoughts that come to mind. By no means is this a complete overview, but simply a suggestion based on the information given.

If you go around barefoot on hard floors, this could be one cause. The anatomy of your foot could be a cause. There could be some type of congenital anomaly present. There could be a type of nerve entrapment or possibly tarsal tunnel syndrome. There could be a bone cyst. There could be a referred pain from the low back. There can also be referred pain from a rheumatoid like condition known as ankylosing spondylitis.

As far as suggestions go, I really do recommend you see a podiatrist for evaluation and recommendations.
