One nerve ( calcaneal ) continues to the heel, the other two ( medial and lateral plantar nerves ) continue on to the bottom of the foot.
22.
The lateral, named the anterior calcaneal articular surface, is somewhat flattened, and articulates with the facet on the upper surface of the anterior part of the calcaneus.
23.
However, repeated damage can cause these deposits to pile up on each other, causing a spur-shaped deformity, called a calcaneal ( or heel ) spur.

One nerve ( calcaneal ) continues to the heel, the other two ( medial plantar nerve and lateral plantar nerve ) continue on to the bottom of the foot.

"' Sever's Disease "', otherwise known as calcaneal apophysitis is an inflammation of the growth plate in the heel of growing children, typically adolescents.
26.
In the former, there is a failure of separation between the calcaneus and the navicular bones, while the latter represents a failure of separation between the calcaneal and talar bones.
27.
A study conducted by Salzler ( 2012 ), exposed that the increasing trend of minimalist footwear or running barefoot can lead to a variety of stress fractures including that of calcaneal fractures.
28.
Disruptions in the plantar fascia's normal mechanical movement during standing and walking ( known as the Windlass mechanism ) are thought to contribute to the development of plantar fasciitis by placing excess strain on the calcaneal tuberosity.
29.
A backward-projecting calcaneal tuberosity is present in most early crocodilian relatives, including those that are thought have sprawling gaits, yet modern crocodilians have more laterally projected tuberosities impeding a parasagittal orientation of the hind foot.

The "'Sanders classification "'is a system of categorizing intra-articular calcaneal fractures based on the number of articular fragments seen on the CT image at the widest point of the posterior facet.
