Both heels, FLared up on my left heel shortly after left Knee Replacement, six weeks in a boot and it has been over 7 years no issue. However. A bit over 2 years ago, my right one started hurting. Boot did not help. Kept getting worse. Podiatrist commented it was certainly the biggest he had seen. As it got worse, even pedaling a bicycle on my trainer was too painful to continue. FInally, had surgery to cut it down. My pain was caused by the spur cutting my achilles tendon. Requiring reconstruction and an anchor drilled in my heel some kevlar thread... After non weight bearing for a while, and a few other injuries not related to my heel spurs, all is well...
