Anyone ever had surgery for heel spurs? I went to the podiatrist for heel pain in May and found out I have plantar fasciitis, and huuuuuge heel spurs. Like almost the entire length of my heels. Dr. said they were about 25 years in the making. I got inserts from him and am supposed to pop Aleve like crazy to reduce the swelling. I bought some Orthaheel inserts for my shoes b/c the inserts from the podiatrist aren't high enough for me.
I'm tired of limping like a lil ole lady. I looked at the surgery a little bit and it seems kinda crazy, like NO weight on the foot for 6 weeks.
Anyone had it done? I guess I'd rather have surgery and be pain free eventually than deal w/this.
