It was heavily inflamed. It was a bursitis inflammation, and I received an anti-inflammatory shot from Dr. Justin LoBello that in less than one day had me enjoying the comforts I took for granted all these years. I now exercise all the time with no pain or discomfort using the arch support inserts for my sneaker they recommended.

Some foot conditions may last for months or years before receiving proper care. Dr. Corey Fox in Massapequa, NY explains common causes of heel pain, as well as treatments (some simple, some advanced) that can help you conquer it. Massapequa Podiatry Associates provides both conservative and surgical treatments for bunions and bunion pain.
Heel pain is one of the most common problems patients come to us for-and if you need heel pain treatment, you shouldn't hesitate to see us as well! While heel pain seems like a simple symptom on the surface, it can come from a wide range of different sources. The best and most effective treatment recommendations are made only when we can expertly evaluate the situation and get to the root of the problem.
Heel pain comes in many forms. Although plantar fasciitis is the most famous and most common reason, it's by no means the only one. One often-overlooked heel pain condition is bursitis. Although you may be more familiar with this condition in a shoulder, elbow, hip, or knee joint, it can also affect the heel and can cause significant stiffness, swelling, and pain.
On the outside of a riding boot, a spur is a small, extended metal tool that helps guide a horse to speed up, slow down, or move side to side. There's another type of spur, though, commonly associated with the feet: a heel spur, also known as a calcaneal spur. This spur is different. It is a bony growth that from inside your feet, protruding forward from bottom of your heel bone, and can form in response to repetitive stress and injury.
You feel pain (typically described as "sharp" or "shooting") as soon as your feet hit the floor after a good night's sleep, and it takes a minute or two of moving around for it to subside. Whether the source of your heel pain is plantar fasciitis or another condition, do not wait on getting the help you need.

Dr. LoBello is an exceptional doctor! He was extremely professional and highly skilled. I was experiencing pain on the bottom of my foot after removing a piece of glass that I had stepped on the previous week. After a thorough analysis, Dr. LoBello was able to find and remove an additional piece of glass that was stuck in my foot unbeknownst to me. I am so happy I went in to see him.

If you suffer from heel pain (I had plantar fasciitis ) go see Dr Corey Fox . Through innovative techniques like shockwave therapy and knowledge of the latest research in foot and ankle rehab, we devised a program that rehabbed my intense heel pain in 3 months . I went from hobbling out of bed to being able to dance in tango heels ( ok not the best choice of footwear lol) . Go see him! Very helpful office staff too

Dr. Fox and his staff are wonderful! My foot surgery went off without a hitch and the care I received is/was terrific. My daughter was also treated by Dr. Fox for a sprained ankle. After being treated elsewhere for a YEAR including injections, a boot, a cast and even platelet injections... We were referred to Dr. Fox by a friend. After ONLY 3 weeks with Dr. Fox she was good as new! We recommend him to everyone! If your feet/ankles need medical attention, look no further, Dr. Fox is your guy!

When experiencing a sudden, nagging, heel pain, Dr Fox was recommended to me by a few friends that have been very happy with him. I am so glad I went to him. There was never a doubt that I was in the best hands possible. He quickly diagnosed my problem and offered me the many possible treatments available. He was very knowledgable of the most current treatments and offered them right in his office. His staff is very friendly and attentive as well. I am walking pain free thanks to Dr Fox and his team.
