Bruised heels.... is it forever...?

isabey

I have had one serious episode of "bruised heel".... followed by a couple of remissions after wearing poor cushionning shoes.



It was not "PF" nor Achile tendonitis.... it was simply severely bruised heels... on both feet.
I have now let off of any kind of impact exercises .... and for sure running which I love to do... It has been at least two years from the onset.... and I want to start jogging again... but at any kind of hint of impacts on the feet, even with brand new running shoes... I can feel the familiar sensitivity warning me not to go further...!

I have read while surfing the net.... that this is a irreversible problem.... do any of you have this and have you beat this condition somehow...?
(I am now 55, and coming down from 220 lbs hoping to get to 176.... sitting below 190 right now on a frame of 180 cms.)
