Do You Suffer From Heel Pain?
Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Spurs)
What
is it? How do I treat it?.
-
Do you suffer from heel pain?
-
Does it feel like you have a nail in your heel?
-
After walking for a few minutes does the pain slowly disappear?
Millions of people each year are faced with this type of
pain. While there may be other causes, the most common is Plantar Fasciitis.
Plantar Faciitis is an inflammation of the fibrous tissue,
called the plantar fasciia, that runs along the bottom of your foot that connects the heel (calcaneus) to the toes (metatarsals). Treatment for this condition can take many forms
including: stretching exercises, drugs, orthotics, injections, and
in rare cases surgical procedures.
What Causes This?
A flattening or overstretching of your plantar fascia can cause microscopic tears, inflammation, and a burning sensation. While developing slowly, there may be a sudden severe event
sometimes occurring in only one foot at a time.
Plantar Faciitis can affect
people of all ages and backgrounds. Some contributing factors
include age, weight-bearing activities, sudden increase in physical activity, improper shoes, excess weight or a recent weight gain (as little as 5 pounds), and poor biomechanics (flat feet, high arches or unnatural gait).
Until now the treatment methods
have addressed the active conscious periods only to be undone when a
person goes to bed or sits in the easy chair relaxing.
