Haglund's Deformity (also known as pump bump or
retrocalcaneal bursitis) is a painful enlargement on the back of the heel bone
that becomes irritated by shoes. It normally appears as a red, painful, and
swollen area in the back of the heel bone. Women tend to develop the condition
more than men because of irritation from rigid heel counters in shoes that rub
up and down on the back of the heel bone.
Changing shoes, soaking feet, and anti-inflammatory medications often mitigate the symptoms of this problem. Note: Please consult your physician before taking any medications.
