Been having a problem with pain in my heel. My Doctor took an Xray and said I have a heel spur. Anyone ever had this and what are the pros and cons of having it operated on. Does physical therapy help or just a waste of time.

Lots of people have heel "spurs" (like a boney callus) and have no symptoms from it.
Google "plantar fasciitis" if your first step of the day getting out of bed is the worst.
I am sure you will be horrified with this... but my sister (the nurse) had the bony callus kind... she took a hammer to her foot to get rid of them... OUCH..
Hammer toe?
How is she with a bedpan?
