Bone Spurs and additional question

[Guest guest]

Question, I had to do an emergancy visit with my RA, had a reaction to

my meds, she breifly went over my foot xrays with me,told me she would

get in more depth on my next visit in August, she advised I have bone

spurs in both of my heels. I am not having problems with them at this

point, but has anyone had these and what happens ? She told me, it was

either caused by my RA or my neuropathy (which she referenced that with

my IBS, thought that was interesting) which brings up one more

question , anyone know about IBS and the correlation with neuropathy?

I don't think there is any relationship. Bone spurs are due to wear and

tear and inflammation. Wear New Balance sneakers.

My heels at this point are not hurting but my insole (im assuming that is what

it is referred to) hurts alot when I walk. It feels like something is pulling,

does this have to do with the spurs ? Is there anything I can start doing now to

prevent further pain ? I will be trying New Balance shoes as suggested. I am

used to wearing Nikes. Any more advice will be greatly appreciated.

Hi , sorry to hear you have bad foot pain. I know how that is,

and so tough as we need to walk on them, etc. Ouch!!!! You might want to

see a Podiatrist and have your feet checked out. I did, and was very

happy with him. I have 2 seperate pairs of inserts for my shoes, a reg.

one, and one I use when my feet are killing me. He also told me to buy

running shoes which have more support all over. New Balance was one of

the brands he suggested. I hope this helps, and I pray your feet will

feel better soon. Hugs, Barbara
