Our foot consists of plantar fascia- a tissue that supports our entire weight and assist in taking required care of weight that has been put on our feet while walking.

So, to ensure that plantar fascia does not deteriorate in any condition, our body may respond by forming the bony projection to protect the tissue and thus giving rise to calcaneal or heel spur.
