Aching pain in heels from standing desk during pandemic - a podcast by Dr. Christopher Segler

I just did a telemedicine call with a runner who had a very interesting complaint. This  was heel pain and heel pain in itself is not really interesting, because most of the people who get heel pain have plantar fasciitis, but this was one of those cases where somebody had heel pain that was not plantar fasciitis, and was definitely something else.

I actually had this exact same problem myself during the last year. I work at a standing desk, I record podcasts at a standing desk, I do Zoom calls with all kinds of people, all kinds of different meetings.

Most people who get plantar fasciitis, or bursitis, or a partial rupture of the plantar fascia, or even a stress fracture in the heel bone, they generally get it only in one foot, but this pain was pretty much the same in both feet.

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we're talking about aching pain in the heels from standing at a desk during the pandemic.
