Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain and it happens when the tissue supporting the arch of the foot becomes inflamed.
Three mistakes people often make:
❌ Pushing through the pain
Continuing high-impact exercise can worsen the inflammation.
❌ Walking barefoot at home
Lack of arch support can place additional strain on the plantar fascia.
❌ Ignoring the symptoms
Early treatment can prevent the condition from becoming chronic.
Small changes like supportive footwear, stretching and rest can help reduce strain on the foot.
If heel pain persists, it’s always best to have it assessed.
