When typing a question, or an answer, I notice there is a number next to the 'submit' button which says XXX/4000. So does that mean we are restricted to 4000 characters when using AB

Painful heel

When I walk the underside of one of my heels is painful. There is no pain until I put my weight on it. Does anyone know what could be the cause?
