Plantar fasciitis is a painful condition that affects the bottom of the feet. The best way to address this problem is to make sure to never ignore the pain and instead seek out treatment options as soon as possible. There are treatments for plantar fasciitis that can bring relief, including stretching exercises, special shoe insoles and night splints.
Physical therapy can be beneficial in recognizing potential areas that could be causing your discomfort and strengthening the muscles to reduce strain on the injured area. It may even help alleviate pain caused by wearing certain types of shoes or standing on concrete floors for an extended period of time.
Severe cases may require more intensive treatments such as corticosteroid injections or surgery. However, it is important to work with your physician before embarking on any treatment plan as everyone's case is unique and deserves an individualized approach in order to get lasting relief.
