"Get better, and a homophone of another answer in this ladder" answer

The answer for Tuesday's puzzle is:

HEAL

The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.

Why HEAL fits

If you've already solved HEEL, change its third letter from E to A. The top word, HEAD, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from HEAL only in the fourth letter, D instead of L.
