Can Haglund's Deformity Go Away On Its Own? [Back Of Heel Bump]

➜ Learn more about Haglund's Deformity (aka Back of heel bump): mfaspecialists...
Sometimes called a “Pump Bump,” Haglund’s Deformity refers to a bone prominence in the back of the heel bone that rubs on the inside of the shoe. This bump is usually located to the outer, upper side of the heel. These bony enlargements on the back of the heel most often leads to painful bursitis, which is an inflammation of the bursa (a fluid-filled sac between the tendon and bone).
The pain is characterized as dull to sharp depending on the types of shoes worn, and can also flare up in the evening after increased activities.
