What Is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue running across the bottom of your foot, connecting your heel bone to your toes. This condition typically causes a stabbing pain, often worse with the first steps in the morning or after periods of rest. It results from repetitive strain or pressure on the fascia, leading to irritation and micro-tears.

Causes of Heel Pain
Plantar fasciitis often develops from repetitive stress or excessive tension placed on the plantar fascia.
