Most of us don&#8217;t really pay attention to it until we are experiencing discomfort or pain. Are you suffering from heel pain? According to the Mayo Clinic, &#8220;h<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">eel pain usually affects the underside or back of your heel. Although heel pain is rarely a symptom of a serious condition, it can interfere with your normal activities, particularly exercise&#8221;. Some typical things people do include, changing their shoes (over and over), icing the area, taking Advil, Motrin or Aleve.&nbsp;<\/span>Other possible types of things people find themselves doing more of are&nbsp;rolling their foot on a golf ball, buying&nbsp;over the counter inserts and just hoping it all goes away.&nbsp; Most give up because nothing works and the&nbsp;other foot starts hurting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b><strong>Q&amp;A<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you been told you have plantar fasciitis?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heel spurs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that you may have neither?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b><strong>What Dr. Arti C. Amin has to say&#8230;..<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many reasons for having heel pain.&nbsp;&nbsp;First, heel spurs on the bottom of the heel do NOT hurt; it\u2019s what causing the heel spur that hurts.&nbsp;&nbsp;Besides plantar fasciitis, you may have a condition called tarsal tunnel syndrome, which is a pinched nerve or even a partial tear of the plantar fascia or a bone bruise.&nbsp;&nbsp;There are less common conditions that affect the heel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Number One cause of heel pain is a condition called plantar fasciitis.&nbsp;&nbsp;Plantar simply means the bottom of the foot.&nbsp;&nbsp;Fasciitis means inflammation of the fascia, which is the type of tissue that is inflamed.&nbsp;&nbsp;The plantar fascia originates at the heel and inserts on each toe.&nbsp;&nbsp;It helps to support the arch and the bones\/joints of the foot.&nbsp;&nbsp;The inner band becomes inflamed or injured at the heel.&nbsp;&nbsp;This causes the pain.&nbsp;&nbsp;Typically, the pain is worse with the first step in the morning when you get out of bed and after sitting for a prolonged period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Number two cause is tarsal tunnel syndrome. This is similar to carpal tunnel syndrome but not the same.&nbsp;&nbsp;The large nerve in the tarsal tunnel, which is located in the inner ankle area, gets pinched.&nbsp;&nbsp;This causes the heel and sometimes arch pain.&nbsp;&nbsp;This condition is usually worse as the day progresses and you\u2019re on your feet longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The treatment for plantar fasciitis is opposite to tarsal tunnel syndrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So which condition do you have?&nbsp;&nbsp;Make an appointment today so Dr. Arti C.
