 Thanks for that info.  I did see that on the internet.  I'm going to put that on my shopping list for tomorrow until my orthotics come in.

heel spurs 
I don't know if I can with my full-time job, but with my part-time I can.  It's just hard to change the way you type when you've been doing it the same way for over 25 years!
	 
	
Anyone that has plantar fasciitis or heel spurs found a good conservative help for this pain. nm

heel spur 
 I've only been dealing with this for a little over a month, so I'll be patient.  I got fitted for orthotics so hopefully that will help.  Thanks!
	 
	
heel spur 
Gel heel pads inserted into the heel of the shoe --not the kind that covers the entire foot surface -- just gel padding for the heel -- were a life-saver for me. I purchased them at Rite-Aid drugstore. They are blue, like a gel material & cost about $7. I put them in every pair of sneakers and flats and eventually pain (which was so severe I considered surgery) disappeared completely.
	 
	
Heel pain 
Has anyone every had heel pain in the foot that uses the pedal?  I have always been afraid of carpal tunnel, but my heel pain continues to get worse.  Any ideas on shoes, exercises, arches, etc?  Please help.  Thank you.

heel spur/plantar fasciitis and trying to type 
 Has anyone out there had heel spurs and/or plantar fasciitis and have tried to keep typing?  I've had a cortisone injection, am doing the exercises, and have tried ice but still have pain.  I've tried switching to my left foot but then my knee hurts.  I've tried to use my elbow with the pedal, but then that slows me down.  Any suggestions other than to switch jobs?
