Every year about this time when I ramp up swim & gym workouts it's something else ! This year it's heel pain ! Got a cortisone shot today to try to pull down me limping ! I can't run anymore from 2 hip replacements to the right hip. I spend 30 - 45 min on the cross trainer eliptical at the gym & this is what I get !
Sounds very odd that heel spurs would flare up when you're not running. Are you doing anything else with a high impact to the foot?
I've had heel spurs since I was in the Army...around 1990. I go through phases where I hardly even notice them to can't even stand on my feet. But generally they're something I can manage (and the VA assists me with them), and I was even able to run a marathon with them. Cool damp weather seems to set them off for me, which is something I usually don't see much of here in the Phoenix area.
