(2) Lumbar heel pain: Many people suffer from heel pain due to aging. The cauda equina in the lumbar sacral area is deformed by the degeneration of the 4th and 5th lumbar vertebrae (i.e. bone hyperplasia), causing compression and "painful" pain, which leads to discomfort in the lower limbs. The initial symptom is pain in the entire bottom of the heel. In severe cases, it may be accompanied by coldness and numbness of half of the buttocks, numbness of the outer thigh and calf, etc.

(3) Traumatic heel pain: When walking, stepping on a hard object or hitting the ground too hard can cause tissue damage in the heel and cause pain.
