Do any of you have spurs in your feet/tendon(achilis) I know i have one on my right, and I had some issues w/ my right leg, I had surgery where they went in and stretched the tendon. I was told by the Ortho that w/ diet and exercise it would go away. So the spur I have on my heel on my right went away. But I think I have one on my left tendon, it doesn't hurt all the time but probably the last 2months its been really bothering me.. ( i was in HI for awhile so I wore flip flops all the time) and im wearing sneakers and they dont help either. I have been streteching a lot more but seemsthe more cardo I do the more it irritates it. Does anyone have advice on oh to relieve the pain? Im trying to avoid having surgery again. I'm hoping that the more I work out and lose weight that it will go away.. But it really hurts( again not all the time) I'm going to give it a couple more weeks, if its not better I will go see a dr.


Thanks~

    plain old walking works for mine. when i stop walking and only doing cardio workouts my spurs will bother me. once i get walking again on a daily basis they go away.
