What is plantar fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is a pain in your heel and foot that typically happens when you take your first steps of the day or when you have been inactive for a long period of time. The pain can be very bad, and you may have difficulty raising your toes off the floor if you suffer from this condition. Some ways to ease plantar fasciitis include:
- Resting your foot on a raised stool when you can
- Placing an ice pack on the sore area for up to 20 minutes
- Wear well-fitting shoes
- Supportive insoles or heel pads
- Gentle stretches and exercises
