Hi! I would recommend an evaluation by a podiatrist because a heel spur is not usually the source of pain and removal is a last resort. The procedure is generally a quick one.
Heel spurs generally are not operated for many years since important ligaments and muscle engines are attached to this bony location snd although the pain is reduced, your foot arch will collapse creating many new problems.
See my many responses on this site to people about heel pain and plantar fasciitis. The 'spur' is actually an artifact/side effect of having a problem with the plantar fascia, which is a ligament. Very easy to treat.
