Calc Spur

A Calcaneal Spur (Heel Spur) consists of a spike of bone that has grown on the Calcaneous (Heel Bone) causing pain in a specific point on the heel this can be associated with Plantar Fasciitis.

People with a Calcaneal Spur usually have a very pronated foot position and often play high impact sports such as rugby or running.

Treatment options include:

• Bespoke Orthoses to correct the foot function and to redistribute the pressure away from the spur
• Ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection
• Surgical removal of the spur
