What is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar Fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot. It acts like a shock absorber for your arch but when it becomes irritated or damaged, it can cause intense heel pain and stiffness.
What are the Common Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis?
Most people experience:
- Sharp pain in the heel or arch, especially in the morning
- Pain after long periods of sitting or standing
- Stiffness in the foot after rest
- Discomfort that gets worse throughout the day or after exercise
Left untreated, it can become a chronic issue that affects your ability to walk, work, or train.
What Are The Common Causes Of Plantar Fasciitis
There’s no single cause, but several factors can increase your risk, including:
- Sudden increase in activity or training load
- Wearing unsupportive footwear (especially on hard surfaces)
- Having flat feet or high arches
- Poor ankle mobility or tight calves
- Being overweight
- Jobs that involve long periods of standing or walking
