When Should I Be Concerned about Heel Pain?
You should be worried about heel pain when you experience severe swelling and pain near your heel and have severe heel pain right after an injury. Additionally, other causes of concern involve the inability to bend your foot downward, walk normally, or rise on your toes, and heel pain with tingling or numbness in your heel with a fever. You should seek medical attention if your heel pain continues when you are not walking or standing, and your pain lasts more than a couple of weeks, even after you tried ice, rest, and other home remedies.
