Heel Bruises

Jesse lah 17:42 04/Jan/09

Firstly, sorry in advance if many people have posted in regards to this topic, i couldn't find any other threads because the search on this site is strange.

Anyway I bruised my heel pretty badly about 3 months ago bad enough i couldn't walk and had to take time off work. It slowly got better I was walking in about four days and i started skating after 7 weeks of not skating (horrible 7 weeks). I started skating bigish stuff and was stupid enough to push it even though i could slightly feel the pain there a bit. So I fucked it again probably worse than the first time and since then (about 6-8 weeks) Its slowly been heeling kinda back and forward but mainly forward.

Recently its started to go downhill without me even injuring it skating or drunk or anything, I stand and walk alot at work and my whole bottom of feet have started to ache heaps at work and my heel is getting worse. Even after a few days off work and off my feet its not really that great.

Could this be something wrong with the bone or is it just a fucked part of the body to bruise and heal? I went to the doctor at one point and he just said keep it up and put ice on it (duh). I'm thinking of getting an xray but im sure there's alot of heel bruise veterans here so any stories or advice would be great. Thanks for your time.

put as little pressure on it as possible, they take forever to heal!

I loosend the tendon on the bottom of my foot and now i have one flat foot and the both roll inwards.

i had a 'ball of foot bruise'... and i know it is horrible to skate with thick soles, but i did this:

insterted sorbathane (a gel innersole)
and then put my original innersoles over the top. then i cut a hole in the top innersole, where the bruise was. this stops that point from getting pummeled when you land. it felt like i had moon boots on, but at least i could skate.

this may work witha heal bruise too?
