A heel spur, also known as a bone spur, is a bony growth that protrudes from the bottom of your heel at the point where your heel bone joins to the ligament that runs between your heel and the ball of your foot. A heel spur can be painful (the plantar fascia). About 15% of the population suffers from heel spurs. Heel spurs develop over time. Before seeking medical attention for heel discomfort, the vast majority of people are unaware that they have a heel spur. Although surgery is an option for removing heel spurs, medical professionals typically prescribe non-surgical treatments as the first line of defense against the discomfort caused by heel spurs
