Heel injections are often used when pain is flared and walking hurts.
They can settle irritation short term, but they don’t change what keeps stressing the heel every day.
The common mistake is treating pain without addressing load.
Things like ongoing pressure, footwear, tight lower legs, and even the condition of your heel skin all affect how force moves through the foot.
When heel skin is thick, split, or sore, people often change how they walk without realising.
That subtle shift can increase strain through an already sensitive area.
This is why heel care isn’t just cosmetic.
Healthy skin helps distribute pressure more comfortably, supporting better movement.
Long-term comfort usually comes from reducing ongoing irritation, wearing supportive footwear, and maintaining healthy heel skin, not relying on a quick fix alone.
Healthy skin supports healthy movement.
