Heel pain isn’t always straightforward, and understanding the different types can help you find the right approach to manage it. Here’s a quick guide to what your heel pain might be telling you:
✅ Pain under the heel could indicate plantar fasciitis.
✅ Pain in the centre of the heel might suggest fat pad syndrome.
✅ Pain at the back of the heel is often associated with Achilles tendinopathy.
✅ If you're experiencing burning or numbness, it could involve nerve issues.
✅ Pain that worsens with load could be a sign of a stress fracture, though this is less common. Each location of pain can have different causes and treatments. Listening to your body is essential in identifying the right course of action. If you're unsure, please seek advice from a professional.

Plantar fasciitis is often misunderstood, and one surprising fact is just how common it is. Many people think it's something only athletes deal with, but it can affect anyone, regardless of activity level.
✅ It's often caused by simple factors, like wearing the wrong shoes or having flat arches.
✅ The pain usually arises from inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot.
✅ Thankfully, it's often manageable with simple lifestyle changes and exercises. Many people are unaware that early intervention can make all the difference.
If you’re experiencing pain, don’t hesitate to seek advice. Understanding your foot health is key to finding relief and staying active. If you’d like more information on effective strategies to manage plantar fasciitis, feel free to reach out.

🌿 Did you know that the footwear you choose can significantly affect how you manage and alleviate the symptoms of plantar fasciitis? It’s not just about having cushioned shoes; it's also essential to consider the arch support they offer.
👟 Here’s why this is important: Proper arch support helps to distribute pressure evenly across your feet, reducing strain on your plantar fascia. Without adequate support, your fascia can become overstressed, which often leads to inflammation and pain.
🔍 If your current shoes aren’t providing enough support, it might be worth looking into quality insoles or orthotics. Remember, everyone's feet are unique, so what works for someone else may not work for you.
Don’t forget about balance, literally! When standing or walking, try to distribute your weight evenly between the balls of your feet and your heels.
This simple adjustment can help ease unnecessary pressure and provide some relief to your feet. So, take care and show some compassion for your feet. They work hard for you every day! 😊
