Adults are not the only ones suffering from heel pain:
Do you have a son or a daughter who is currently experiencing heel pain? At Issaquah Foot & Ankle Specialist we often begin to see heel pain in children as the weather warms and kids become more active. The most common cause is calcaneal apophysitis, inflammation of the growth plate of the heel bone or calcaneus. Children will often describe pain at the sides, back or inferior heel surfaces. If you suspect your child has apophysitis and live in the surrounding areas including Bellevue, Seattle, Sammamish, Maple Valley, Redmond or Issaquah, have need to have this condition differentiated from other causes. Please call us at 425-391-8666 to schedule an appointment. In addition do not forget we are now available for same day emergent care for foot and ankle trauma including fractures and sprains.
