Do you experience heel pain when you first get out of bed in the morning? What about after standing for long periods, or when you get up from your seat? If your answer is yes, it’s important that you visit our office. These may be signs of plantar fasciitis, a condition that causes pain in the heels. The plantar fascia is the fibrous tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot, connecting the toes to the heel. It acts as the shock absorber of the foot and supports the arch. When this tissue becomes inflamed, the result can be intense pain in the heel. Plantar fasciitis can result from repetitive stretching and tearing, but oftentimes the precise cause is not obvious. If you’re experiencing heel pain, it’s best not to ignore it. Doing so can result in chronic heel pain. It’s also not advisable to change the way you walk to avoid inflaming the tissue without expert guidance, because this may lead to back, knee, or hip problems. The best thing you can do is to make an appointment at our office for care. We offer a range of treatments to alleviate your pain and restore your mobility.
