What is a heel spur? What Causes a Heel Spur to Develop?
When the body is deficient of calcium it begins to leach calcium from the bones. In many people this happens to be in the heel of the foot or some other weak area of the body. As the calcium is being leached, it forms an eruption (similar to a volcano). This eruption is the bone spur. A bone spur in the heel is called a heel spur.
