    Abstract:
    The causes and treatments for heel pain can vary significantly and, many times, can present a challenging problem for both conservative and operative care. This article describes the most common cause of heel pain, with a focus on the use and proper application of the calcaneal decompression procedure. A review of the literature, anatomic considerations, mechanism of action, surgical technique, and case presentations are offered.
