That would be "what could happen if you have any surgery on your feet" I have had patients that have had bone spurs removed and will never be able to stand again without severe pain. It is usually highly recommend not to have this surgery done.

We see at least 10 plantar fasciitis patients a week. Some of them have had it over 2 years and have heel spurs. Heels spurs do not hurt. They just poke into the plantar fasciis and make it hurt if it is wounded. Your story is very common.

I would be happy to talk to you about it. Send me your phone number and I will give you enough info to get you out of some pain and back on the mend. You should feel better within a few days.

Hey don't give up there is still hope!
