A method and tool for treating heel pain of a patient. The method includes determining a medical procedure to be performed on the patient based on the number of etiologies, the time span, and the severity of the patient's heel pain. The medical procedure performed may include collecting and processing a sample of the patient's blood to retrieve growth factors therefrom, excising degenerative tissue of the patient's plantar fascia, injecting the patient's growth factors into the patient's plantar fascia, and applying an electrical acoustic shockwave treatment to the patient's plantar fascia. The tool includes a trocar and a rasp configured to be received in the trocar. The rasp includes a file defined at a distal end and configured to extend through an opening of the trocar.
