This would result in pain and will make movement
difficult for patients. Those who suffer from this foot
ailment experience severe pain in the arch. The most
common complaint made by patients is sharp or dull
pain and stiffness experienced in the arch.
Some also report an ache or burning sensation at the
bottom of the foot. The pain usually occurs in the
morning and when a patient would take his initial
steps. Patients also experience pain after long periods
of standing or sitting down, when going up some stairs
or after an intense physical activity.

Causes It can occur in men and women. Some people are more prone to develop
this foot ailment more than others. There are several causes of plantar
fasciitis. The plantar fascia is similar to a rubber band and contracts and
loosens up with movement, absorbing weight and pressure. When there
is significant physical activity, such as during sports activities, stress
placed on the plantar fascia can result in tears and swelling which would
cause moderate to extreme pain.
The common causes of Plantar fasciitis include:
• Flat feet or high arches
• Running long distance especially on uneven surfaces or downhill
• Obesity or sudden increase in weight
• Tightness of the Achilles tendon

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common
orthopedic problems concerning the foot and
often occurs in men who are physically active
between the ages of 40-70.
Majority of cases of plantar fasciitis will not need
surgery to relieve the pain or correct the
condition. There are non-invasive treatments that
can help although patients respond differently to
treatments and recovery can vary from patient to
patient.

Prevention
A major cause of plantar fasciitis is wearing
shoes that provide inadequate arch and sole
protection. When shoes don’t fit well or give
little protection and cushion, even walking can
cause a major stress on the plantar fascia.
The best preventive measure is to choose
good fitting shoes with adequate cushion and
support. Delaying treatment can lead to
worsening of symptoms. If home remedy
doesn’t help, the best thing is to see a
podiatrist, a foot specialist or a kinésiologist
at once. Even a mild ache, left untreated, can
result in chronic pain.
