http://www.stopfootpainfast.com Do you have a bony enlargement on the back of your heel that is causing you pain? Find out why this heel bump is painful and what a New Jersey foot doctor can do to treat this foot condition here in this video.

Pumps and high-heel shoes can create pressure on the heel bone, causing a thickening of the bone that looks like a bump on the back of the heel. This bump is referred to as a “pump bump” or Haglund’s deformity and can be painful. During this time, the Achilles tendon that attaches to this bone gets tight and inflamed, and a Piscataway podiatrist can painlessly treat the Achilles tendon to relieve pressure. Treatments can include stretching, physical therapy, heat, shoe inserts, properly fitted shoes, or laser therapy.
