    Hi,

    I am 22, and for the past two years, I feel (some days), pain in my right foot upper side of heel. This pain is only there when pressured by walking. Its like I have to find the exact spot where the stab sensation is, and if I stand and put pressure there I will feel it.

    Pain is totally bearable, some days I forget, others I can feel a little sensation there when stepping exactly on that spot.

    I really wonder what it is? I wish I could give you an answer.
    I went to the doctor last year, and everything is fine with me, people seem to think its about putting ice or resting the feet. But it has nothing to do with the amount of exercise, and its something internal. And in 2 years time, it is always the same place in the same feet.

    Its weird!!!!

    Good luck for everyone. Best wishes

    hi i am 13 years old, i do Taekwando and my foot hurts on the same place on my left foot
    and I feel the same pain so i wentr to a foot clinik and they said my foot was rolling in so they gave me insoles that keep the ark of the foot and it is starting to elp so i suggest buying some insoles but they are still expensive and they cost $50 NZ dollers.

    Its called Plantar Fasciitis. Went to the doctor yesterday and was given an X-ray for a possible "spur" but nothin was found. Not much to do for plantar fasciitis except foot exercises, Advil to reduce any inflammation and wearing supportive shoes or inserts. Hurts like hell! And I am hoping this will NOT be a daily problem like it has been for the past 2 days!

Not sure what will help but im a nurse and have a 12 hour shift to work tonight not sure how im going to pull this off! Anyone know a quick fix from home if I was at work I could just attempt to numb the area this is agony!

    Hey everyone! I actually have something very similar to what most of you describe... my pain is on the right foot, right side, where the back of the shoe meets the "achilles". About 4 years ago I had the same problem and anytime I took a step with shoes that did NOT come over the ankle it was the sharpest stabbing pain I've ever felt... I went to the doctor and was told it was a partially torn achilles...

    Now, 4 years later, I'm walking down the hall at work and it out of the blue starts again... it only occurs when I walk and if I feel the shoe directly touch a specific area... does NOT hurt when standing, sitting, rotating foot, using foot for "toe" exercises, or anything except walking... I can even squeeze the area and no pain, but the pressure from my shoes on the back of the heel causes the issue...

    I spent some time feeling around and there is a little "nub" on the right foot that doesn't seem to be on the left foot... almost as if its a "floating" something that after a period of time randomly comes up...

    Looking at both situations (4 years ago and "today") I was very active at both times... 4 years ago it happened when I was going to the gym 3-4x week doing varied activities (volleyball, running, lifting)... I was put in the "boot" for 3-4 weeks and it went away for 4 years... I'm back into volleyball and working towards working out and it suddenly happened walking... in the last 4 years I have been active on/off... from July-Oct 2011 I was very active again with no issues, now its random again...

    Sometimes with the shoes its there and others its not... wondering if pressure on the heel from the shoes is the cause... almost as if the shoes are too small putting too much pressure... just thought I'd throw that out there for some folks as a possible option...

    Peroneal tendinitis. Look it up.

    It could be the Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction which is caused by standing or walking for long time and
    Overuse of the posterior tibial tendon and pressure on right side of foot
    for that you can do few things like, Shoe modifications, wear bracing or orhtotic devices. Maintain ideal weight. It you contact a Foot Specialists he may also suggest you some physical therapy to recover quickly
