If you’re dealing with sharp, stabbing heel pains, especially with first steps, you could be experiencing plantar fasciitis. This common condition happens when the band of tissue supporting your arch becomes inflamed, leading to discomfort that can interfere with your daily life. See a podiatrist immediately and read more about the symptoms from Healthline.

Plantar fasciitis occurs when too much pressure on your feet damages the plantar fascia ligament, causing pain and stiffness.
