I have a heel spur which at the moment prevents me from doing much exercise on my feet. I can walk but not much and then it just gets worse the next day. Any suggestions on cardio exercises I can do? Thanks in advance ;)

    Also look into stretching or therapy exercises. That can sometimes be the cause of the pain, not the heel spur itself.

    Swimming would be my suggestion, you could try rowing, it's a great full body exercise.
