I've been doing some research on using castor oil for bone spurs. All the information on the internet points to surgery being required, but I did not believe that. I see how much people are benefiting from castor oil and ACV. I did some deep research, and found that it's metabolized in skin cells and the first step is breaking apart the trigyleride that contains 3 ricolenic acid molecules, and freeing those. Those individual molecules can penetrate much deeper. Some will get converted to AcetylCoA, and some will move through into tissues. Below is what Gemini says after doing deep research on the topic.
Castor oil is not a passive lubricant; it is a complex, biochemically active pro-drug. The body's own enzymes convert it into active, localized metabolites that stimulate lymphatic drainage, normalize the local immune response, deplete pain neuropeptides, and encourage natural, cellularly mediated bone remodeling

I used castor oil on my feet at night to get rid of bone spurs on the bottom of my feet. After showering I rubbed a generous amount of castor oil on my feet put on socks and slept with them on all night for about 1 month. The bone spurs are gone and my feet feel so much better. I recommend that to anyone with aching feet. It works.

My Mum and aunt have both successfully got rid of bone spurs on their feet using castor oil. I've also started using it on a Haglund's deformity on my heel and it is shrinking.

About 10 yrs ago, I had plantar fasciitis. I used the castor oil massage followed at bedtime by a saturated cotton ball directly over the site, covered by piece of plastic bag, a not too tight ace wrap, and a sock. I wore Haflinger brand wool clogs (excellent arch support) any time I was not wearing shoes. I took turmeric daily, 1/2 tsp beaten into an egg. fried "scrambled" fashion until just done (turmeric breaks down under excessive heat. Absorbed better with a fatty carrier.) Not bad. In a week the pain was greatly reduced. Over time, all pain was gone. After about a year, I could not detect the place where the bone spur had formed on my heel.
I now go bare foot again and the problem has not recurred.
