A calcaneal spur (or heel spur) is a small osteophyte (bone
spur) located on the calcaneus (heel
bone). Calcaneal spurs are typically detected by a radiological examination
When
a foot bone is exposed to constant stress, calcium deposits build up on the
bottom of the heel bone. Generally, this has no effect on a person's daily
life. However, repeated damage can cause these deposits to pile up on each
other, causing a spur-shaped deformity, called a calcaneal (or heel) spur.
Obese people, flatfooted people, and people who often wear high-heeled shoes
are most susceptible to heel spurs.
An inferior calcaneal spur is
located on the inferior aspect of the calcaneus and is typically a response to
plantar fascilitis over a
period, but may also be associated with ankylosing spondylitis (typically in children). A posterior calcaneal spur develops
on the back of the heel at the insertion of the A chilles tendon.
An
inferior calcaneal spur consists of a calcification of the calcaneus, which lies
superior to the plantar fascia at the insertion of the plantar fascia. A
posterior calcaneal spur is often large and palpable through the skin and may
need to be removed as part of the treatment of insertional Achilles tendonitis These are also generally visible to
the naked eye.

periods of rest. Patients may report heel pain to be more severe when waking up
in the morning. Patients may not be able to bear weight on the afflicted heel
