Bone Spurs In Heel Natural Treatment Remedy

Most people who have heel disorders are middle-aged or overweight. Heel spurs are common in people who have arthritis, neuritis, alkalosis, and tendonitis.
X-rays may reveal a bony spur within the heel. The presence of a bony spur may lead to the formation of tiny tumors at the end of several nerves, and these may be very painful. It is best not to remove a heel spur surgically unless it is extremely irritating.
