What are Heel Spurs?

Heel spurs are bony protrusions that form on the underside of the heel bone, often developing alongside plantar fasciitis. They can lead to sharp, stabbing pain—especially during your first steps in the morning or after extended rest. Common causes include repetitive impact, excess body weight, and unsupportive footwear. Left unmanaged, heel spurs can cause chronic discomfort and affect your mobility.

How TruCustom Orthotics Can Help

TruCustom Orthotics designed to relieve heel pain provide targeted cushioning and support to reduce pressure on both the spur and surrounding tissue by using soft supportive flexible, NO HARD PLASTICS . The custom formed heel cup helps keep your natural fatty heel pad in place while also providing additional shock absorbant. Gently put pressure through the arch and take some pressure off the heel. These features not only ease existing pain but also help prevent further irritation. With regular use, they improve alignment and provide long-lasting comfort - whether you're walking, standing, or moving throughout the day.

FAQs

  • Common treatments for heel spurs include physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, stretching routines, and supportive footwear or orthotics.

However, many people find significant relief through conservative options like TruCustom Orthotics, which reduce pressure and inflammation without invasive procedures.
