Q: What is a heel spur?

A heel spur is a bony growth on the heel bone, located either at the back of the heel or under the sole. They develop over time, with most people not realizing they have a heel spur until they seek help for heel pain.

Q: What causes heel spurs?

Heel spurs can result from stress and strain placed on your foot ligaments and tendons. Prolonged standing, wearing improper footwear, and trauma to the heel bone or surrounding tissue can cause heel spurs. Notably, plantar fasciitis may also cause heel spurs, as your body may develop a heel spur in response to stress and strain caused by plantar fasciitis.

Q: What is the fastest way to heal a heel spur?

While there is no “instant” method to curing heel spurs, having a multi-faceted approach to treatment can help efficiently manage symptoms. Icing and resting your heel can help ease heel pain. Anti-inflammatory medication and wearing proper shoes that support your arches and provide cushioning can also help.

Q: What happens if heel spurs go untreated?

Left untreated, heel spurs may cause pain each time your heel hits the ground. Besides affecting mobility, increased stress on your feet from untreated heel spurs can also worsen plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis.

Q: How do I know if I have plantar fasciitis or heel spurs?

Although they’re related conditions, plantar fasciitis and heel spurs are not the same. Plantar fasciitis pertains to the inflammation of the plantar fascia, the ligament that runs between your heel and ball of the foot. On the other hand, a heel spur is a bony growth that can form because of stress and inflammation caused by plantar fasciitis.

Q: What types of boots are in style at The Walking Company?

Ankle Boots: Ankle booties sit at a perfect height around your ankles and are easy shoes that help enhance any outfit. We offer short boots like the ABEO Compass Zip that are not only easy to style, they’re also a breeze to wear as well thanks to convenient double zipper closures. Knee High Boots: For something with a more striking cut that will easily keep you warm during the colder months, a pair of knee-high boots are a stylish must-have in your wardrobe. While our knee-high boots – like the ABEO Avenue Tall – are undeniably fashion-forward, they never compromise on your comfort. Our boots are engineered to be ergonomic and supportive, built with orthotic footbeds that cushion your feet wherever you go. Heeled Boots: In need of some added height with your boots? The Walking Company boots provide the elegant boost you’re looking for while promising serious comfort with every step. You never have to worry about foot pain and fatigue in sleek boots like the ABEO Metropolis Zip, which are both fashionable and functional thanks to a comfortable orthotic footbed. Lace Up Boots: Lace up boots are great for when you want a more rugged look to your outfits. They provide a more customized fit with their laces, ideal for when you want some adjustability with your boots. The ABEO Vista Lace is a warm and cozy option, keeping you supported thanks to its built-in orthotics and securing your feet in place with a lace-up vamp.

Q: Which type of boots are best for everyday wear?

Finding the best boots for daily wear will depend on your lifestyle and overall preferences. However, we recommend a more versatile silhouette – like ankle boots or Chelsea boots – as these styles look flattering and can complement any outfit.

Q: How do I know if I need regular or wide boots?

The width you need for your boots will depend on the width of your feet. If you usually experience discomfort and feel cramped in standard-width shoes, then you may need wider boots to better accommodate your feet. Feet bulging over the sides of your shoes is another sign that you may have wider feet.

Look for boots that have proper cushioning and provide orthotic support to ensure your feet stay comfortable and supported as you go about your day. With Chelsea boots, ankle boots, knee high boots, and even sleek heeled boots, The Walking Company offers a vast collection of boots for women that you can pair with any outfit.
