Heel spurs called Spur Calcenum is the conversion of the elastic tissue at the heel which protects the bones of the heel from the shocks. Sometimes there is calcification or hardening or formation of bone cells in the tissue which robs the natural function of this end of the ligament and causes pain. This pain is generally worse on waking in the morning and beginning to move or after sitting a while on attempting to move. This typically gets better after walking a few paces.
Homeopathic Medicine has excellent remedies to see that the pain reduces and there is no further degeneration.

I have heel spurs on both feet. I'm in NO pain as long as I only wear certain type of shoes. This may be hard to explain. Walking shoes, running shoes, sports shoes, whatever you want to call them, I have found them in different brands, what you look for is this, look at the bottom of the shoe (the sole) and at the heel part, there has to be an indention in the center. If I wear any shoes that don't have this indention, my pain will come back within a week. Sometimes, this type of shoe is hard to find, try looking there they sell alot of different types of sports shoes.
Hope this helps, I know it did for me.
