Plantar Fascitis Surgeon in Yelahanka

Plantar fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot and connects the heel bone to the toes. This condition typically causes sharp, stabbing pain in the heel, especially with the first steps in the morning. Treatment aims to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and improve foot function through various methods including rest, physical therapy, orthotics, and medications. We have the best Plantar Fascitis Surgeon in Yelahanka. Contact us today.

Causes:

  1. Overuse: Activities that involve prolonged standing, walking, or running can put excessive strain on the plantar fascia, leading to inflammation.
  2. Foot Mechanics: Abnormal foot mechanics, such as flat feet or high arches, can contribute to the development of plantar fasciitis by placing additional stress on the plantar fascia.
  3. Improper Footwear: Wearing shoes that lack proper support or cushioning can increase the risk of plantar fasciitis by failing to absorb shock and support the foot adequately.
  4. Aging: As people age, the plantar fascia can lose its elasticity and resilience, making older individuals more susceptible to inflammation and pain.

Benefits:

  1. Pain Relief: Effective treatments, including rest, ice application, and medications, help alleviate the sharp pain associated with plantar fasciitis, improving overall comfort.
  2. Reduced Inflammation: Therapeutic interventions such as physical therapy and anti-inflammatory medications reduce swelling and inflammation in the plantar fascia.
  3. Improved Foot Function: Custom orthotics, supportive footwear, and stretching exercises enhance foot mechanics and alleviate stress on the plantar fascia, restoring normal function.
  4. Prevention of Recurrence: By addressing underlying causes and implementing preventive measures, such as proper footwear and stretching routines, treatment helps prevent future episodes of plantar fasciitis.
