The document discusses heel pain, its causes, and treatment options. Heel pain is often caused by overuse or trauma to the plantar fascia, which supports the foot's arch. Common causes include overuse from carrying heavy loads, increased body weight, repetitive stress, or trauma from falls or fractures. Treatment begins with conservative options like rest, stretching, orthotics, and anti-inflammatory drugs. If conservative treatments fail, further evaluation is needed to rule out conditions like tarsal tunnel syndrome before more invasive options such as shockwave therapy or surgery are considered.
