assistant
The best type of running shoes for heel pain is a pair of shoes with cushioning and good arch support for optimal shock absorption. Shoes with extra depth in the heel area and good cushioning throughout the sole can help reduce stress on the foot and heel. Look for shoes that are designed with extra cushioning in the midsole and foam that is designed to absorb shock. Avoid shoes with a rigid sole which can cause increased strain on the heels.
