Plain x ray of the heel. Sounds like a ‘Calcaneal spur’. This usually needs steroid injection once confirmed.
All the best.

Your symptoms—heel pain for weeks, worse on walking and after sitting (first step pain)—are most consistent with:
• Plantar Fasciitis
Next Steps
• Rest + activity modification (avoid prolonged standing, hard surfaces)
• Footwear correction:
– Use cushioned shoes
– Silicone heel pads
• Exercises (very important):
– Calf stretch
– Plantar fascia stretch (rolling foot on bottle/ball)
• Pain relief:
– Ice application 10–15 min, 2–3 times/day
– Short course painkiller if needed (after doctor advice)
• If not improving in 2–3 weeks:
– Physiotherapy
– Ultrasound of heel (to rule out spur if needed)
Health Tips
• Don’t walk barefoot (especially on hard floors)
• Morning stiffness is typical—do stretching before first step
• Weight control helps reduce pressure on heel
• Avoid sudden increase in walking/exercise
⚠️ Red flags:
• Severe swelling, redness
• Pain at rest/night
• No improvement after 4–6 weeks
