Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar Fasciitis
Heel discomfort is one of the most frequent causes of plantar fasciitis. It involves swelling of the thick tissue band from the heel bone to the toes on the bottom of each foot. With your first steps in the morning, plantar fasciitis frequently generates stabbing agony. The discomfort usually subsides as you rise and move around, but it could come back if you stand for a long time or get up after sitting.
