I'm trying to plan life after my heel spur surgery. Has anyone had this surgery before that can tell me how long the healing process is?

The length of recovery after heel spur surgery depends on how invasive the surgical procedure is. Generally, it will take two-to-four weeks to recover from minimally invasive heel spur surgery. However, recovery after a more elaborate surgery may require an extended period of about three months.
