Pain in the feet
My wife has a pain in the leg. She did an x-ray . The X-ray shows a spur growth in left heel . Right heel is normal. But she has unbearable pain in the right heel however the left is without pain. As consulted the doctor , he said " there are patients who have spur growing but there is no pain in them "
My concern is if her right heel is normal and shows no adverse effect then why it is paining. Please advise. Thanking you in advance.

Plantar fascitis without a spur can also cause severe pain . I have a very successful regime of treating these conditions and patients are very happy with it bcoz I have worked in foot and ankle department in England for nearly 2 years. I cannot tell you the whole regime typing on this sheet. So please you can contact me on my phone number or go for paid online consultation on Practo and I can help you.

A calcaneal spur is usually an incidental finding in the x-ray. Plantar fasciitis can be successfully treated without surgery in most cases.
Next Steps
See an orthopaedic surgeon for clinical examination and further treatment.
