“Every step I took felt like stepping on a tiny rock, and the pain in my heel kept me from enjoying even short walks. I tried ignoring it, but it only got worse, until I finally discovered it was a calcaneal spur.”
Calcaneal spur is a bony outgrowth that forms on the heel bone (calcaneus), usually at the point where the plantar fascia attaches, often resulting from prolonged strain, pressure, or repetitive stress on the heel.
