Can acupuncture help heel spurs?
Asked 3 years ago
My heel spurs give me so much pain every day. If I go for acupuncture, will I get some relief from my heel spur pain?

There is no evidence suggesting the effectiveness of acupuncture in managing heel spur symptoms like pain. However, there is overwhelming proof that acupuncture can help treat conditions like plantar fasciitis and bursitis. Instead of acupuncture, you can use rest, ice, NSAIDs, exercises, and physical therapy.
