"voltaren gel has given me back the ability to walk without pain.  i have had heel spurs and plantar fasciitis and bursitis in my heel for about 20 years.  i began using voltaren gel about 10 months ago and am so thankful that i  have not had any significant pain for the past six months. i also try to wear only shoes that have very high arches.  with the voltaren gel, i massage it all around my foot and over the top and bottom as per the directions.  great stuff!!!"
