Plantar Fasciosis: Understanding the Root Cause
Plantar fasciosis is degeneration and inflammation of the plantar fascia — the thick band of tissue along the bottom of your foot connecting the heel bone to the toes. It's one of the most common causes of heel pain, affecting more than 2 million Americans each year.
Common Causes
- •Gait abnormalities — overpronation or supination
- •Tight calf muscles and Achilles tendon
- •Sudden increase in physical activity
- •Prolonged standing on hard surfaces
- •Flat feet or high arches
- •Poor footwear support
- •Obesity or rapid weight change
