There are many causes for arch and heel pain also known as Plantar Fasciitis. They range from simple mechanical issues to complex metabolic diseases.
One of the most common reasons for Plantar Fasciitis is faulty foot structure. For example, flat feet or high-arched feet, wearing non-supportive footwear on hard, flat surfaces, or even obesity can cause arch and heel pain. Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, arthritis, or a stress fracture can all be contributing factors for heel pain.
Because there are many different causes, it is recommended that if you are suffering from symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis New York City patients contact Gotham Footcare, so that we may properly evaluate your condition, diagnose its exact cause, and provide you the best treatment.
The most common complaint for heel pain is plantar fasciitis, a condition that affects the bottom of the foot.
Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that extends from the heel to the toes. In this condition, the fascia first becomes irritated and then inflamed, resulting in heel pain. Morning pain and pain after periods of rest are characteristic and can progress to pain all the time. As the pain worsens, the heel can hurt even while not weight-bearing.
Most people suffering from heel pain recover with conservative non-surgical treatments. At Gotham Footcare the following techniques can be used for treating heel pain.
Gotham Footcare offers the latest minimally invasive surgical treatments, and strives to provide the best plantar fasciitis treatments New York City has to offer.
