That is actually what I was told......I did have bone spurs, but the
orthopedic doctor said that the actual pain is from the plantar
fasciitis/tendonitis.........apparently many if not most people actually
have the little bone spurs without any pain or discomfort whatsoever,
but when the tendon contracts and begins to experience microscopic tears
that is what causes the pain. The tendon attaches at the heel end near
(at?) where the bone spur forms.............
My understanding is that orthotics keep the tendon stretched, and it
gradually relaxes, or something to that effect........it has been a long
time and memory gets vague..........I could be mis-remembering.

Would this be a similar/same thing as tendonitis? This is what my son has and
it is so painful. It was diagnosed as tendonitis but the specialist said it
wasn't so I wondered if this could be what it is. He can't walk sometimes when
its bad. dee
