I have had heel pain in the past, specifically plantar fasciitis and it really was challenging to go about your day. My pain when I got out of bed was uncomfortable until it loosened up but if I sat down for any period of time it came right back. Does this sound familiar? If it does and this pain just will not go away, I can help.
Plantar fasciitis is by far the leading cause of heel pain. The plantar fascia is a tough soft tissue structure that provides the most structural support to your foot. It works to prevent your foot from flattening out and helps control your foot for the gait cycle. It is vital for foot function and is under chronic tension. These factors make it one of the most common causes of foot pain.
Treating plantar fasciitis can often be difficult as well. There are many people that have seen a physician and still have been or have been working on their pain at home. I encourage you if this is you to see a physician that specializes in heel pain. I have been working with heel pain patients for over 15 years. I have seen every type of pain and can help cure even the most stubborn cases. If you want to get your life back and live without heel pain I can help, call to make an appointment with me at 425-391-8666.
