Heel spurs

I actually had two heel spurs in one foot before I was dx'd as diabetic type 2. It really hurt and I still taught standing and walking on it. It healed eventually putting ice on it (really a bag of frozen peas), changing shoe height several times a day, and some inflammatory meds. I do not know how treatment would change after my diabetes though. Sorry, I couldn't be anymore help.
Good luck and I feel your pain (from my memories).
