Heel spur (Lenoir’s thorn) - PiedRéseau Rimouski
PiedRéseau Rimouski is proud to offer specialized services for heel spurs, commonly referred to as Lenoir’s thorn. This condition involves a bony protrusion on the inside of the heel, which can be identified through imaging techniques such as X-rays. Our clinic provides comprehensive assessments to determine the presence of heel spurs and understand the associated discomfort that may arise during daily activities.
Patients experiencing heel pain, particularly during the first steps in the morning or after prolonged sitting, may benefit from our targeted interventions. At PiedRéseau Rimouski, we focus on alleviating the discomfort linked to heel spurs through various therapeutic options. Our services include the prescription of orthotics, which can help manage the pressure on the plantar fascia and reduce pain.
In addition to addressing heel spurs, our clinic is equipped to manage related conditions such as plantar fasciitis. By providing tailored treatment plans, we aim to enhance our patients’ mobility and overall foot health. Our approach ensures that you receive the support needed to manage your heel pain effectively.
