Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.

See an Orthopedic surgeon and assess what is the cause. You will need a combination of analgesics, medications to strengthen the bone, excercises, heel pad supports as well as weight loss in the near future-diet, excercises or bariatric surgery
