Spring is Here!

It’s time to get out of the house and enjoy warm weather activities like walking and running. But be cautious! Sudden increased activity following a winter of inactivity can result in unwanted heel pain, also known as plantar fasciitis.

This painful condition results from inflammation of the band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that extends from the heel to the toes. Starting repetitive activities such as a new exercise routine, even continuous standing or walking on a daily basis, can put a lot of stress and strain on the ligaments in the foot, resulting in the inflammation and pain.

The good news is heel pain can be cured. The key to success in eliminating the pain is early treatment; heel pain can become chronic and debilitating if not cared for properly. Our offices can help you find relief with therapies including:

• anti-inflammatory medications

• stretching exercises

• Orthotics

• physical therapy

• footwear modifications

• activity limitations

Although most patients with plantar fasciitis respond to non-surgical treatment, a small percentage of patients may require surgery. If, after several months of non-surgical treatment, you continue to have heel pain, surgical options can be discussed.

Don’t let heel pain stop you from enjoying the beauty of spring. If you are suffering from heel pain, make an appointment with one of Our Offices so you can resume your healthy, active lifestyle.
