And it’s deadly.
16 years ago I had a heel spur that, on the X-ray, looked exactly like the corner of a piece of paper. It was that sharp , and digging into my Achilles tendon, and would have eventually cut through, so I scheduled surgery so it wouldn’t end up getting it fixed in the ER at oh-dark-thirty. Today I think I’d hop about on crutches before doing that. All hospitals are dangerously understaffed, unless you’re a movie star or a Saudi Prince. Stay away if you possibly can.
I wonder what Woke people call the Achilles tendon? 😄
