Re: Has anyone been DX'd with this?

Enthesopathy is an inflammation of the insertion of the tendon or

ligament to a bone. I had this as a child. It does go away with time.

You can have it happen in a variety of places. Mine was where my

achilles joined my heels. This specific condition was called Police

Man's Heel. It went away in a year or so without any further issues. I

wasn't started on drugs. But orthotics to raise my heels up were

suggested. As your doctor said, it's a better diagnosis than arthritis

as it doesn't affect the cartilage and result in a wear out situation

over time.
