Use of calcium supplements to ease heel spurs?
Can you successfully use natural calcium supplements to ease the increasing pain associated with heel spurs?
I don't have any personal experience with this but I haven't been able to find any reputable medical professionals who recommend calcium supplements to treat heel spurs. I usually only see that advice on sites that are selling supplements.
The most commonly recommended treatments include stretching exercises, rest, applying ice packs to the affected area, anti-inflammatory medication, and sometimes the use of a heel cup or other orthotic.
If you prefer the natural approach, Dr. Weil recommends some natural anti-inflammatories for heel spurs. Click on this link then scroll to the bottom of the page to see his suggestions: Dr. Weil's recommendations for heel spurs
