My heel has been really hurting. I believe that I have a high tolerance for pain but this has been crazy bad. I started trying to do research on the net and unbelievably found almost instant relief in the form of athletic tape. I did start trying to tape my heel and fond a little relief. However, found the link below and this taping made a HUGE difference.

So thank you heelspurs.com for the information. It has made a big difference. I am almost back to normal after a month of having a significant heel pain.

Now the outstanding confusion is the other changes that I made in terms of new shoes, new orthotics and using ibuprofen cream. So I have violated scientific principles and changed too many things at once so I don’t know how all of these items interacted to make my heel better. But I do know the taping had a significant impact.
