Plantar Fasciitis
Do you have...
- Burning pain in your heel that radiates throughout your foot?
- Difficulty standing for a long period of time?
- Severe pain in your heel upon waking?
- Do your feet feel tight and painful when you try to take
your first steps getting out of bed?
If you answered "yes" to one or more of these questions, you may be suffering from Plantar Fasciitis.
Trinity Rehab can help.
Plantar Fasciitis (PLAN-ter fash-ee-EYE-tus) is the most common cause of heel pain due to a strain in the ligament that supports the arch of your foot. Repeated straining leads to pain and swelling, that ultimately results in significant discomfort.
Plantar Fasciitis most commonly occurs due to high arches or flat feet. It may also occur in people who walk, stand, or run for long periods of time. This makes the condition common among joggers, nurses and retail workers. Other causes include obesity, poor posture and poor-fitting or worn-out shoes.
