Heels can take a beating from a range of activities, including heavy impact exercise or wearing poorly fitted shoes.

The American Podiatric Medical Association offers these suggestions to keep heel pain in check:

Today’s Health Tips

* Take a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication to help manage pain.

* Use splints at night.

* Wear custom orthotic insoles, or similar over-the-counter products.

* Use gel supports designed to cup the heel.

* Heel pain that persists without improvement should be evaluated by a medical professional.
