Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a painful inflammatory condition of the foot (usually in the heel but can be referred pain) caused by excessive wear to the plantar fascia that supports the arch or by biomechanical faults that cause abnormal pronation. Click Here!

The pain usually is felt on the underside of the heel, and is often most intense with the first steps of the day. Even before getting out of bed in the morning! Click Here!

Plantar Fasiitis Cause

It's commonly associated with long periods of weight bearing or sudden changes in weight bearing or activity or wearing new shoes.

Obesity, weight gain, jobs that require a lot of walking on hard surfaces, shoes with little or no arch support, and inactivity are also associated with the condition. Even shoes with good arch support may be the wrong fit for you.

Plantar fasciitis used to be called "a dog's heel" in the UK. It is sometimes known as "flip-flop disease" among US foot specialists, foot doctors and podiatrists. The condition often results in a heel spur on the calcaneus, in which case it is the underlying condition, and not the spur itself, which produces the pain. Heel spurs may not be the cause of plantar fasiitis pain also. Click Here!
