What is a X Ray Right Heel Lateral and AP View Test in Visit Clinic?
An X-ray of the right heel creates clear images of the heel bone (calcaneus) and nearby joints and tissues. It does not measure a substance. Instead, it shows bone alignment, breaks, spurs, and other dense changes. This is important because the heel supports weight and helps you walk. X-rays can reveal fractures, bone spurs, arthritis, infections, tumors, or foreign bodies. Doctors use these views to confirm injury after trauma. They also use them for persistent pain, swelling, or trouble walking. Results help decide treatment like casting, surgery, or physical therapy and monitor healing over time. Radiation exposure is low and usually considered safe.
