“Can a heel spur pain go away on its own?”

Yes, but it takes much longer than with treatment

It can go away on it's own but sometimes requires help from a Podiatrist. Without formal treatment , stretching, avoiding barefoot walking and ice can help. If not, an expert should be seen. Dr. Weiss

Heel spurs do not hurt. It is the plantar fasciitis - inflammation of the ligament which is the foots shock absorber, or achilles tendonitis - which is the legs shock absorber that becomes inflamed from pulling away from the heel bone and begins to micro-tear that causes the pain. Heel spurs are secondary to the damage being caused from the over extension if the tissues. You can try stretching, inserts, icy hot and massage therapy. If all else fails to resolve the condition, never consider surgery. I recommend Orthotripsy to restore the flexibility and blood flow to the structure to resolve the issue. It's one treatment performed in the office and walk out in your shoes and go back to work and activities within 3 days.

Heel spurs will not go away on their own. Usually, the spur is not the cause of the pain. I recommend you make an appointment with a foot and ankle specialist (podiatrist) to evaluate, diagnose and treat your condition

A 'heel spur' is really a reference to a ligament problem (if the pain is on the bottom of the heel) or if the pain is in the posterior heel around the Achilles insertion, then the spur may actually be the cause of the pain. So all of these things are treatable. A spur, itself, will NOT go away on its own, but if the pain goes away, nothing need be done about the spur.
