SUFFERING FROM FOOT OR HEEL PAIN?
Foot and heel pain is commonly diagnosed as plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis, depending on the affected area. These conditions often arise from soft tissue injuries, resulting from either trauma (like sprains or muscle strains) or chronic, repetitive strain (such as running).
While significant muscle or cartilage tears, bone fractures, or arthritis can cause foot and heel pain, it is far more common to experience tendonitis and/or fasciitis.
UNDERSTANDING THE CAUSES
Several factors contribute to foot and heel pain, including:
Inflammation
Muscle Spasm
Soft Tissue Adhesion
Mechanical Joint Irritation
Poor Posture
Altered Foot Bio-mechanics
Nerve Irritation
Muscle Weakness
When previous treatments have failed, it may be due to not addressing these underlying factors. Chronic pain from plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis often results from a cycle that begins with irritated or injured tissue, leading to inflammation, muscle spasms, nerve irritation, and the formation of soft tissue adhesions. This scarring can result in dysfunctional tissues, making them more susceptible to irritation and injury.
