Plantar Foot Pain
Setting the Pace for Pain-Free Strides
Every step an athlete takes carries passion, ambition, and dedication. But when plantar fasciitis makes its presence felt, each step can turn into a painful reminder. At Austin Manual Therapy, we’re dedicated to helping you regain the joy of pain-free movement, so you can continue pursuing your athletic dreams.
Shedding Light on Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is a condition wherein the thick band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes becomes inflamed. This inflammation often leads to heel pain, especially during the first steps after waking up.
Key Indicators of Plantar Fasciitis
- A stabbing pain in the heel, especially with the first steps in the morning or after sitting for extended periods.
- Pain that lessens after a few minutes of walking but might return after prolonged standing.
- Discomfort after exercise, not during.
