Heel Bumps and Your Feet

Also known as Haglund's Deformity, heel bumps are a bone enlargement on the back of the heel bone. These usually occur for athletes when the shoes they wear rub up against the heel, and they can be aggravated b the height or stitching of a heel counter of a particular shoe. the result is a painful bump or bumps on the heel that make exercising very difficult. Another term used for this condition is pump bump because it can frequently occur with the wearing of high heels as well.
