A heel spur is an overgrowth of the bone tissue of the tubercle of the heel bone, which causes inflammation of the plantar fascia. The disease manifests itself as intense pain in the area of the supporting part of the foot, which leads to gait disturbance, lameness, and curvature of the affected limb. The marginal osteophyte has the shape of a spike, injures the surrounding soft tissues and causes disability due to disruption of the full motor activity of the lower extremities. The pathology develops against the background of metabolic disorders, the provoking factors are foot injuries, excess weight, and wearing tight shoes.
Heel spurs are treated with conservative and surgical methods of therapy; folk recipes for getting rid of the disease based on medical bile show good results.
Bile is a secretion of liver cells that is involved in the digestion and absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins in the small intestine. In ancient times, healers used animal bile to prepare potions for various diseases. In the modern world, the role of liver secretion has not lost its relevance.
The pharmaceutical industry produces medical bile, which is obtained from pigs and cattle. The drug is available in canned form with the addition of furatsilin, formalin, ethyl alcohol in bottles of 50, 100, 250 ml.
The formation of a marginal osteophyte - a heel spur - causes inflammation of the plantar aponeurosis of the foot
The use of medical bile is indicated as an external remedy for diseases of the musculoskeletal system, including the occurrence of heel spurs. In this case, the drug has the following therapeutic effects:
The bottle of medical bile is stored in the refrigerator; the container must be shaken before use. The medicine is used to apply compresses to the affected area; the treatment course ranges from 3 to 30 days. If necessary, therapy is repeated after 1-2 months.
Treatment of heel spurs with bile-based compresses usually includes 20 procedures
Before using bile, it is important to familiarize yourself with the list of contraindications, which includes:
It is necessary to use bile for heel spurs after consulting a doctor, a diagnostic examination, in combination with other methods of therapy recommended by a specialist.
Treatment with bile gives a good analgesic effect, has a resolving and warming effect, and promotes the healing of affected tissues in a short time. Among patients using the drug, you can hear a lot of positive reviews. The use of bile is especially effective against the background of conservative therapy, including anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics, physiotherapy, and therapeutic exercises.
To prepare a compress, you need to take clean gauze and fold it into 4-6 layers. Instead of gauze, you can use canvas fabric folded in half. Before use, the medicinal substance should be shaken, the bandage should be moistened and applied to the site of the heel spur projection. The fabric is secured with a tubular bandage with an elastic band, the foot can be insulated on top with a thin layer of cotton wool, the compress is wrapped in canvas paper and a wool sock is put on. It is not recommended to use a plastic bag, because it does not allow the skin to breathe and contributes to the burn of the foot by the biologically active components of bile.
Canned bile can be purchased at pharmacies without a doctor's prescription.
The compress is applied overnight, in the morning the bandage is removed, the skin is washed with warm water and soap, the heel is wiped with a cotton swab moistened with cologne or medical alcohol. Then the foot is lubricated with a nourishing cream to soften the skin. If the dressing dries quickly, you can refresh it with a few drops of bile diluted in a small amount of boiled water. If excessive burning is felt during the procedure, it is recommended to place a fabric gauze pad between the bandage and the skin to prevent irritation and burns. The positive effect of the procedure appears after the first week of treatment, however, for complete recovery it is necessary to undergo at least 20 therapy sessions.
For normal skin sensitivity, red hot pepper pods are added to the bile to enhance the therapeutic effect. To prepare a compress, mix a 250 ml bottle of bile, 4 bottles of camphor alcohol, 10 pods of hot pepper (you don’t need to chop them) in a liter jar. The container is hermetically sealed with a lid or polyethylene and placed in a cool place without direct sunlight for 3 days. The strained product is stored in the refrigerator, the shelf life is no more than a week. The procedure technique does not differ from the previous treatment method.
To prepare the medicine, mix 40 ml of bile, 20 ml of vodka, 20 grams of grated laundry soap or 30 ml of hygiene shampoo. The compress is applied overnight according to the above method. The vodka in the mixture improves the permeability of the skin to the beneficial ingredients of bile, and the shampoo softens the skin and reduces unpleasant sensations such as burning and tingling.
Treating heel spurs with compresses based on medical bile is usually recommended in the early stages of the disease. In advanced cases, it is impossible to do without conservative therapy and surgical intervention, with the help of which the bone formation on the heel bone is removed.
In order to choose the right method for treating heel spurs, you need to take a comprehensive approach to solving this problem. It is imperative to study the full picture of the disease, as well as the factors that provoked its occurrence. To find out how to treat a spur with medical bile, you must first consult a doctor for advice.
Some patients are wary of surgery and choose conservative treatment methods. One of these methods is medical bile.

This is a publicly available drug that contains animal bile. It is available in pharmacies without a prescription. This medicine has an effective effect on the spur and helps eliminate pain, and also significantly reduces the inflammatory process.

Let us list the medicinal properties that bile has:
We bring to your attention several recommendations that will help in treating this disease. It is very easy to follow all these recommendations at home.
Let's look at the basic methods of treating heel spurs using this medication without any additives.
If the skin on the heels is too sensitive, then treatment with pure medical bile can be harmful, so you can use more gentle recipes.
To prevent bile from burning, it is mixed with glycerin or camphor oil, preheated. You need to put a fixing tourniquet or bandage on your leg. It is desirable that it allows air to pass through.
You can also make a good compress using the following drugs:
You should not use this drug under the following conditions:
When applying compresses, a side effect may occur - a burn may form at the site where the bile was applied. In this case, it is advisable to stop using the drug and start using it in a month, when the redness from the heels disappears.
How effective this remedy is in the treatment of heel spurs can be understood from the reviews left by people who have been treated with this drug.
Now the instructions for using medical bile do not say at all that it helps get rid of heel spurs. And, by the way, this is a remedy that has long been known to everyone and has been tested more than once. It helped me cure a heel spur, but, however, it took about a month to be treated and it doesn’t smell very good, but you can be patient for the sake of recovery. I haven't had any pain in my heel for 3 years now. So I recommend it to everyone.
My job involves standing on my feet every day - I'm a hairdresser. I got a spur on my heel about 2 years ago. Now I have been doing bile compresses for three weeks now - the pain has become less, but still by the end of the working day it is impossible to stand and walk - the pain is so severe. I hope it will help over time.
Based on the reviews that are numerous on the Internet, we can conclude that this treatment is effective, albeit long-term. Many people are also confused by the characteristic smell of bile.
Thus, there are many drugs based on this substance, among which you can choose what is right for you specifically in the treatment of heel spurs. All proposed treatment recommendations are best done not in the first stages of the disease, then compresses will be more effective. In later stages, such methods may not be effective.
Medical bile for heel spurs has been used in traditional practice for decades. The product has a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect and, contrary to popular belief, is not a folk remedy. This complete drug is used for the treatment of joint diseases, pathologies of the spine and other parts of the musculoskeletal system. Due to its effectiveness and ease of use, the medicine has gained wide popularity among patients and medical professionals.
Bile belongs to a group of drugs for topical use that have irritating properties. It is produced in the form of a brown emulsion with a specific odor, packaged in transparent glass bottles. Most often, pharmacies sell medications containing natural bovine or pork secretions and antiseptics.
The medicine is used as an external agent. When used correctly, the medicine solves the following problems:
In addition, the bile solution acts as a distracting agent.
Store the bottle of liquid in a cool, dark place. Shake well before use.
Bear bile is more effective for heel spurs. It has a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect, improves metabolism in affected tissues, reduces pain and swelling. But this drug is less accessible. The product is not always available in pharmacies and is expensive. This is explained by the difficulty of obtaining and the high material costs of procuring raw materials.
Any bile is a potent medicine, so it should be used strictly according to the instructions and only after consulting a doctor.
Animal bile, like any medicine, has its pros and cons. You should know about them.
The advantages include the following:
Treatment with bile also has its drawbacks. True, they are very few in number, and it’s difficult to call them disadvantages. For example, for a lasting result it is necessary to conduct at least 20 sessions, which requires time and significant volitional efforts.
Sometimes the drug causes an allergic rash or skin burn, but in this case we can only advise you to be careful and strictly follow the instructions for use.
It is undesirable to use this remedy simultaneously with other local drugs, including those of plant origin (decoctions of licorice, parsley, peony). The effectiveness of treatment in this case decreases.
Before using bile, you must familiarize yourself with the restrictions that are indicated in the instructions for the drug. These include the following circumstances:
Use the product with caution during pregnancy and lactation. Before using bile, expectant mothers are advised to consult with a supervising specialist.
Treatment with bile should begin when the first symptoms of a heel spur appear. It is recommended to use the medication as part of complex therapy, in combination with other medications and physiotherapeutic procedures.
To avoid allergies, it is advisable to conduct a sensitivity test before the procedures. To do this, a small amount of bile is applied to the back surface of the skin of the forearm. After 10 minutes it becomes clear whether the product can be used. If there is no redness or swelling of the skin, itching or discomfort in the area where the medicine is applied, it can be used.
So how to treat a spur? In order not to harm yourself and achieve maximum therapeutic effect, you must adhere to the following simple recommendations:
The procedures are performed at night. In the morning, after removing the lotion, remove any remaining drug with a damp cloth.
The therapeutic course consists of 25–30 daily sessions. After a month's break, treatment must be repeated.
Regular compresses bring noticeable relief after 5-7 procedures. But, despite the rapid positive changes, treatment must be continued.
There are many alternative medicines made from animal bile. When using them, you need to remember that the medication cannot always be mixed with various substances. Therefore, you should strictly adhere to the recommended composition of ingredients and not replace them at will. Such irresponsibility can result in loss of therapeutic effect and even deterioration in health.
Below we will consider several of the most popular and effective formulations, allowing people suffering from heel spurs to make their choice.
At home, recipes for compresses with warming agents are often used. Such lotions improve local blood circulation, enhance tissue metabolism and accelerate recovery processes.
For irritating dressings the following composition is prepared:
Place the ingredients in a glass jar and close tightly. The dishes are put away in a dark place for 3 days. The finished product is filtered and stored in the refrigerator for a week.
Before the procedure, a little medicine is poured out and left for some time at room temperature to warm up. Treatment is carried out daily for a month.
To eliminate pain and inflammation in the heel area, healers recommend mixing the pharmaceutical drug with alcohol and shampoo. The following ingredients are used for the compress:
The components are poured into one container and shaken thoroughly. The resulting mixture is used for treatment.
Instead of vodka, medical alcohol is often used, diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Another easy-to-prepare and effective recipe for combating heel spurs. The following composition is used for dressings:
The substances are ground until smooth and applied to the heel over gauze. The compress is covered with wax paper and insulated. In the morning, wash off any remaining product with water.
To treat spurs, honey is often used, adding it to various potions. The sweet product has analgesic, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects, and when added to the mixture its effectiveness increases.
Often 100 ml of bile and a spoonful of liquid honey are mixed in a glass container. The product is left in a cool, dark place until the ingredients are completely dissolved and mixed. The mixture is used for compresses and bandages. It rarely causes skin irritation, making it ideal for delicate heels.
How effective is bile treatment for heel spurs? Reviews from those who have already used this product will help you find out the answer to this question.
“I work as a hairdresser, I’m on my feet all day, I can’t sit down. And with age, I gained more weight and my heels began to hurt. At first I didn’t pay attention, but then the pain intensified. With every step it felt like I was stepping on a nail. I went to the clinic, and after an examination the doctor said it was a heel spur. They made a blockade. To enhance the effect, the doctor recommended bile.
I carried out 5 procedures, following the instructions, and could not be happier - the pain was almost gone. And after 3 weeks I felt completely healthy. I work again and walk a lot, but I periodically repeat the course of treatment for prevention.”
“My mother is a pensioner; she worked as a teacher for many years. During lessons I had to stand a lot. With age, pain in the heels appeared, which gradually increased. Then she had difficulty supporting herself on her soles, began to walk very poorly, and persuaded her to go to the hospital. Along with other medications, the specialist recommended bile. We bought it and started treatment. Of course, it smells unpleasant, but it helps a lot. Within a week, my mother began to feel the desire to walk, as the pain had decreased.”
“I used to be actively involved in sports and dancing. Unfortunately, with age, physical activity has become less, family and work take up a lot of time. My soles began to hurt and I could hardly step on my heels. When the pain became completely unbearable, I went to the doctor. In addition to medications, he advised applying bile compresses. Every day I steamed my legs and did lotions. It helped. After a month I felt good again.”
Of course, bile is not the best and only remedy that helps with spurs, but judging by the reviews of its use, it helped many to quickly reduce all the symptoms of the disease.

How effective is medical bile for heel spurs? Feedback from patients who have used the product in practice will help you understand this issue.
I work as a telephone operator and am on my feet all day. With age, I became overweight, and a couple of years ago I was diagnosed with type II diabetes. Six months ago I felt that it was painful to step on my right heel.
I thought I had hit myself and it would go away soon. But it was getting worse. I went to the doctor and an x-ray showed a heel spur. The doctor immediately suggested giving injections: diabetics don’t have many treatment options.
I asked friends and acquaintances - the injection lasts for a year or two. And then? The daughter went online and began looking for traditional methods of treatment. Why not try medical bile? Only first my thick-skinned heels had to be steamed.
I made the compresses myself, but my wife refused to help because of the pungent smell. After five days I felt relief, and after two weeks the pain went away.
My mother-in-law worked as a teacher for more than 40 years and has been on her feet all her life. Now, of course, he can barely walk. It's scary to look at your feet. But it’s not easy to take an old person to the doctor, much less do a blockade on the heels.
Painful shock can cause the heart to fail. I started asking my friends about traditional methods of treating inflammation and heel spurs. The neighbor said that she got rid of this scourge in two weeks with the help of medical bile.
Of course it smells unpleasant. I did this during the day because I was afraid to leave an elderly person with such compresses all night. My mother-in-law says it feels better and hurts less. It also seems to me that she began to move more vigorously.
In my youth I was actively involved in sports, and now the time has come for me to pay: I’ll get sick here, sometimes I’ll get sick here. And every doctor prescribes his own pills, soon I’ll be eating only them.
When my heel hurt, at first I didn’t even pay attention. Well, it will hurt and stop, but that was not the case. After a month I could walk only with painkillers.
During the conversation I complained to a friend and it turned out that almost all of our team had this problem. And my friend advised me to use compresses made from medicinal bile.
First you steam your feet, then roll the rolling pin and immediately apply a compress. And it did help! A month later I forgot about this misfortune, hopefully forever.
Perhaps medical bile is not a panacea for all diseases, but judging by the reviews, it has helped many people recover from heel spurs.
The main thing to remember is:
The traditional method of treating heel spurs is a compress of medical bile in combination with non-steroidal oral drugs. This method of treatment has been used in official medicine for decades for diseases of the joints, spine, including plantar fasciitis (heel spur). At the same time, medical bile has gained well-deserved popularity among doctors and patients.

Therefore, let's find out how to use medical bile in the treatment of heel spurs so as not to harm your health? Is treatment of heel spurs with bile effective and are there any contraindications for its use? How does medicinal bile affect heel spurs? How is it used in traditional medicine?

Medical preserved bile is effectively used for inflammatory processes of the musculoskeletal system. It is indicated for the following situations and diseases:
Medical bile is used for heel spurs. It is also used for subcutaneous hematomas without compromising the integrity of the skin.

This medicine should not be used by children - on their delicate and sensitive skin the drug can cause severe irritation or even a burn. It is not recommended to use the emulsion for pregnant women and nursing mothers. When using a compress, you need to be careful - the bile should not get on the mucous membranes. If this happens, rinse them immediately with cold running water.

The emulsion has a warming, analgesic and absorbable effect. With proper use of the drug, the pain subsides within a few days. Due to improved blood circulation, inflammation of the plantar fascia goes away.

Let’s immediately make a reservation that all folk recipes raise great doubts! Moreover, the instructions for the use of medical bile explicitly state that this drug cannot be mixed with other medications.

A heel spur refers to a chronic microtrauma of the elevated ligament that connects the forefoot to the heel bone. Thus, a heel spur is a small, pointed formation on the foot.

To eliminate them, the patient uses traditional and alternative medicine.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to identify it in a timely manner. Very often this disease is detected during an X-ray examination.
An X-ray image shows a spike that has formed, which resembles bone tissue in its brightness and density. It should be noted that a spur on the heel can be of any size and cause pain of varying intensity. Typically, the length of the spike ranges from 3-11 mm.
