First, some definitions. Calcaneus is the medical name for the heel bone. It is a large bone that forms the back of the foot. A bursa is a sac of fluid that provides lubrication, reduces friction, and facilitates movement between different surfaces in the body. There are many bursas present in the body, usually near large joints. Repeated or excessive use of a joint can cause a bursa to become inflamed and irritated. Bursae of the foot The retrocalcaneal bursa is, as the name suggests, a bursa located behind the calcaneus bone. It provides cushioning between the calcaneus bone and the Achilles tendon (the thick heel cord you can feel at the back of your foot). Finally, any medical term ending in -itis denotes inflammation. Retrocalcaneal bursitis is an inflammation of the bursa behind the calcaneus bone in the heel of the foot."}
