Heel pain, the immobilizing pain  

Since heel pain is associated with our feet that keep us moving and active and one would not be in any position to move to and fro with sore feet, one needs to take really good care and pay attention to any constant pain in the heels. Since the feet are not the most like-able part of body for everyone nor it is as active as the brain and heart it usually suffers from neglect and people pay any attention to them when they feel some nagging pain and aching in the heels. 

The human feet are subjected to various shocks and pressures and generally the feet absorb at least one thousand pounds of force in a day so one can see how difficult it is for the feet to keep moving everyday without getting tired. There are different types of heel pain and they are caused by a variety of reasons. The most common heel pain is the plantar fasciitis or heel pain where there is an inflammation of the ligament that connects the heel to the ankle muscle. There is also the Heel bursitis heel pain.
