Trem, The Birkenstock inserts are what did me the most good, if I go without them too long, the tendons flare up, so looks like I'll be using the inserts for the forseeable future...so I'd have to guess the tendon problems called "heel spurs" are really mechanical in nature as a mechanical solution fixes them. paula ----- Original Message ----- From: Trem To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 1:11 PM Subject: CS>Heel Spurs
Hi Paula, I too suffered with heel spurs for a long time and the docs couldn't find the problem. Don't know why they couldn't figure it out. It bothered me for several years before I found a foot doc that made me a pair of orthotics. Fixed me instantaneously. Regards, Trem
