Silipos Heel Cushions - Relieve pain in the heel area
Silipos Heel Cushions, available in both men's and women's sizes are designed especially to relieve pain in the heel area.
Heel pain can have a number of causes, a common one being planter fasciitis, an inflammation of the band of tissue which extends from the heel to the toes. Such inflammation can result in the development of heel spurs when excess calcium is laid down on the heel bone. It is commonest in those with naturally flat feet or people with exceptionally high arches. Usually it is at its worst when you first start walking, but as the ligament becomes stretched by walking the pain decreases, though it will return if excessive is spent on the feet. Spending a long time on your feet on hard, rigid surfaces can make matters worse as can obesity.
There could also be a bruise on the flat of the heel caused by impact with a hard object, a stress fractures can occur in long distance walkers, tendonitis, arthritis, nerve irritation, or, rarely, a cyst. Only a doctor can give you an accurate diagnosis. Some conditions of course will heal themselves, while other require expert attention and possibly medical intervention.
