Treating the heel spur folk methods

A lot of people, especially at the age of after forty, suffer such an unpleasant disease as a calcaneal spur. In medicine, it was called plantar fasciitis. This disease can cause unbearable pain, persecuting the patient at every step, and in the future can cause pain and at rest. Sometimes a patient can not make a single step because of unbearable pain. The disease occurs due to inflammation of the soft tissues around the attachment of tendons to the calcaneus. Or, more simply, there is a growth of the bone, from which there is inflammation of the tendons. The question is, what kind of illness is it, whether it is possible to get rid of it yourself and those pains that it causes, whether it is possible to heal the heel of the spur by popular methods, excites many.

Symptomatology of the disease.

Who is most susceptible to the onset of this disease? First of all, these are people suffering from flat feet. Often, cases of the disease develop in those who are overweight. Also, plantar fasciitis can occur in people who have problems with the spine, as well as people who are intensely involved in sports, because of the prolonged stress on their legs.

As a rule, when a person is ill, a person experiences pain at the beginning of the day when walking. Then the pain can subside and appears already in the evening. Particularly severe pain occurs in the evening, if much of the day you spent on your feet, and even in uncomfortable shoes. If you do not take any measures for treatment, then the pain becomes resistant and a person suffering from a spinal spur disease can partially lose efficiency. Particularly acute pain occurs if the patient has been at rest for a long time, and then abruptly got up and began to move. From all the above, you can see how extremely unpleasant this disease is. It is necessary to take all measures, perhaps even on our own, to get rid of the disease.

Treatment methods of traditional medicine.

There are several simple methods of treating spurs that you can apply yourself without seeking help from a doctor.

It is necessary to take a black radish and rub it on a fine grater along with the peel. At night, the resulting gruel should be applied to a sore spot, and in the morning rinse with warm water. In some cases, the treatment of the spur is enough to repeat three to four times, and you can forget about the ailment.

Treatment with folk methods can be carried out with the use of herbs. Excellent results give the application of herb swamp grass. This plant has a number of medicinal properties. Sabelnik swamp helps to remove excess salts from the body, has anti-inflammatory effect and many other useful properties. For treatment, take about 1/3 cup with water and dilute 1 tablespoon saber. Take should be before meals three times a day. The course of treatment should be continued for twenty days. If necessary, repeat after ten days.

It is necessary to take one hundred grams of lard and pour 100 ml of acetic acid. Then take one chicken egg and, breaking it, add it to the fat along with the shell. It is necessary to put this remedy in a dark place for three weeks. Periodically, it should be mixed to form a homogeneous mush. This drug is applied to a sore spot. This is done in the following way: before the application, properly remove the soles of the feet, then take the cotton swab and apply a thin layer of mush on it, attach it to the spur.
