If you haven't actually been diagnosed I would check with a doctor first. Plantar fasciitis and heel spurs can have similar symptoms but plantar fasciitis is the more common condition. In either condition wearing a boot cast can help. Usually its worn for at least six weeks and needs to be used at all times except for bathing.

Why do you feel pains on your feet anytime you lie on your bed?

Morning heel spur pain is often the most severe type of heel spur pain. The reason for this is: As you move during the day, the nerves surrounding the heel spur adjust around the spur so that the heel spur is not digging into them. After long periods of rest, such as when sleeping, the nerves relax back into their normal position. Thus, when you get out of bed in the morning, pain can become intense as you are putting weight on the heel for the first time causing the heel spur to be pushed into the sensitive nerves and tissues.
