Due to surgery, I could not put any weight at all on my right leg for two months. After a month of weight bearing, I returned to work. Within two days I started to experience severe heel pain in the back and sides of my right heel. I've done nothing but walk on it, so injury seems out of the question. I know there was a lot of atrophy, but I'd been walking okay for several weeks. After such a long recovery, I'm pretty depressed to be in pain again, although a different one.

I was not sure if you are simply venting some frustrations or have a particular question. I would be more than happy to try and help. It sounds like you could be in need of some physical therapy to aid in your healing process.
