Orthotics and Heglunds Disease

Post a new topicby Juliandy on Tue Jul 08, 2008 11:33 am


I have Heglunds Disease which is when the back of the heel bone juts out. I had surgery 3 months ago and have been told that it takes up to 2 years to heal. Sometimes the pain is unbearable and my other foot now is in pain from taking up the slack of the injured foot. Will orthotics help both of my feet. My podiatrist said to come in to get fitted for them, but I'm not sure if he just wants to sell me orthotics at $350.00. He uses a new scanner method. Should I get orthotics?
