Are you having Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that involves inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes. It is a leading cause of heel pain, especially in the morning or after periods of inactivity.
If you're experiencing the discomfort of:
- Sharping, stabbing pain at the bottom your heel (during first steps in the morning or during physical activity)
- Stiffness and discomfort at the bottom of your foot
- Tenderness and swelling at the bottom of your heel
- Radiating pain from the heel to the toes
You could be having plantar fasciitis! It is important to seek treatments early to avoid prolonged discomfort and pain and that significantly affect your daily life.
Causes of Plantar Fasciitis
Foot Fracture
Having flat feet or high arches can alter the distribution of weight on the feet, increasing the likelihood of plantar fasciitis.
Occupation
Jobs that involve prolonged standing or walking on hard surfaces may contribute to the development of plantar fasciitis.
Physical Activity
Activities that place repetitive stress on the feet, such as running, dancing, or ballet, can increase the risk.
Poor Footwear
Wearing shoes with inadequate arch support or shoes that do not provide proper cushioning can contribute to the development of plantar fasciitis.
Tight Achilles Tendon
A tight Achilles tendon can affect the flexibility of the foot and contribute to plantar fasciitis.
Biomechanical Issues
Abnormalities in walking or running patterns, as well as issues with the mechanics of the foot, can increase the risk.
