Re: calcaneal apophysitis

Has your son been x-rayed? Sometimes (rarely) the growth plate can be fractured, and that might require immobilization in aan extreme instance. You need to communicate all of the continuing problem to your doctor. Until then, use common sense, ice, elevation and no barefoot!

Good luck
