Topics:VERY PAINFUL PROTUSION AND SWELLING BEHIND HEEL AN INCH ABOVE THE FLOOR

I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM OFF AND ON FOR ABOUT TEN YEARS AND THE MD'S DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS. NOW IT IS SWOLLEN ABOUT AN INCH OFF THE FLOOR IN THE BACK, PROTRUDES ABOUT AN INCH TO AND INCH AND ONE HALF, AND NOW IT IS SWELLING AROUND THE SIDES OF MY ANKLE AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. IT HAS BEEN X-RAYED AND "TREATED" BUT THIS TIME, AFTER 6 MONTHS I HAVE NO RELIEF. ONLY NARCOTIC PAIN MEDS HELP A LITTLE. PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR SUGGESTIONS.
