I've been dealing with calcaneal bursitis for two years now and nothing seems to help tried both regular doctors and homeopathy but no luck. A new doctor suggested surgery but mentioned the bone might grow back. Is there any permanent fix for this? I'm ready to book an online appointment right away if there's a solution.
