Heel pain may be from the fat pads in your feet getting a bit thin. Try super-cushioned insoles and realy comfy shoes. Has your doctor done x-rays to look for any bony growths or bone's out of place? If you can e-mail me your symptoms i may be able to help, I cant tell much from heel pain.

Get x-ray of heel. If it is due to bone growth you go for surgery, otherwise acupuncture will solve your problem..
