Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Pain

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It occurs when the plantar fascia — a thick band of tissue along the bottom of the foot — becomes irritated or overstressed.

Symptoms often include sharp heel pain with the first steps in the morning or after prolonged sitting. Supportive bracing and foot supports can help reduce strain and improve comfort during walking and daily activity.
