Hi! Yes, ice can help with heel pain. I would recommend applying ice for 15-20 minutes. Another tip would be to freeze a water bottle and roll it under your foot.
Yes. Ice is a great, natural anti-inflammatory. Most pain is caused by inflammation, and ice is a great way to treat that type of pain. It's great for trauma, ligament and tendon injuries, and many other pathologies.
If it's an injury usually. Use heat if it is arthritic pain or alternate.
Ice can help with heel pain. I recommend you schedule an appointment with a foot and ankle surgeon (podiatrist) for evaluation, diagnosis and treatment options.
