Why am I getting heel pain?

 

Have you ever experienced the nagging agony of heel pain or plantar fasciitis? You’re not alone – it’s a common complaint we often hear from our patients. And the most frustrating part? It might seem to disappear only to return with a vengeance, sometimes even worse. It could leave you wondering, “Why me?” and “Why now?”

But here’s the secret, it’s not your fault. The root cause of recurrent plantar fasciitis lies in the very nature of our plantar fascia. This incredibly resilient and tough tissue is designed to withstand daily activities without breaking a sweat.

However, the flip side is that while it’s busy holding up under pressure, we continue our everyday activities, inadvertently causing microscopic tears in the tissue – ones that might not even cause immediate pain. Over time, these unnoticed injuries accumulate and voila, your plantar fasciitis is back, often in both heels, and usually worse than before.

The even more remarkable thing is that plantar fasciitis is often our body’s way of compensating for our walking or standing habits. Without addressing these fundamental issues, the painful cycle is likely to continue.

Fear not, there is a solution. A long-term fix lies not just in treating the symptoms, but also addressing these underlying causes. By adjusting how you stand and walk, you could break free from the cycle of recurring plantar fasciitis.
