Injury of the Month: Plantar Fasciitis
Ever felt a sharp pain that just won't go away? You know, the kind of pain that makes you dread getting out of bed in the morning or holds you back from your favourite run? This month, we're shining a light on a common but often misunderstood condition: Plantar Fasciitis.
What is it?
Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that connects your heel bone to your toes. It’s a frequent cause of heel pain, especially in the morning or after periods of rest.
