Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It happens when the thick band of tissue under your foot — the plantar fascia — becomes irritated or overstressed. This band supports your arch and absorbs shock with every step. When it gets inflamed, even simple movements like walking after rest, standing for long hours, or climbing stairs can feel sharp and painful. Early, structured treatment helps you recover faster and prevents the pain from becoming chronic.

Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis

You may experience:

• Sharp heel pain, especially with the first steps in the morning

• Pain after long standing or walking

• Stiffness around the heel or arch

• Discomfort that increases after exercise

• Tenderness when pressing on the inner side of the heel

Types of Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis can show up in different ways:

• Acute Plantar Fasciitis: Sudden inflammation due to overuse or strain

• Chronic Plantar Fasciitis: Long-term heel pain from repeated stress

• High-Arch or Flat-Foot Related Fasciitis: Caused by foot structure and pressure imbalance

Treatment and Process

Your treatment begins with understanding your foot mechanics, activity pattern, and pain intensity. We focus on non-surgical, evidence-based methods such as physiotherapy, soft-tissue release, electrotherapy, stretching routines, arch-strengthening exercises, and gait correction. These techniques reduce inflammation, support the fascia, and improve foot alignment. Every plan is personalized so your recovery is steady, safe, and effective.

Long-Term Effects of Delaying Treatment

Delaying treatment can cause the pain to become persistent and harder to relieve. The inflammation may worsen, leading to stiffness, changes in walking pattern, and strain on the ankles, knees, or hips. Untreated plantar fasciitis can also increase the risk of developing heel spurs and long-term mobility issues.
