Plantar Fasciitis is severe heel pain that occurs when weight is applied to the foot. Commonly the first several steps in the morning are the worst. Heel pain may decrease as the foot becomes warmed up or with rest, only to reoccur when activity resumes. In most cases people associate this pain with heel spurs. Calf stretching, kneeling, crouching, and wearing flat shoes can aggravate this condition. Without proper treatment Plantar Fasciitis can last years.
