Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that usually presents as heel pain. It is caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot. Plantar fasciitis is often experienced during your first steps in the morning or after periods of inactivity.

Symptoms of plantar fasciitis include:
- Pain in the underside of the heel
- Sharp pain in the morning when getting out of bed or when standing up after a prolonged period of sitting
- Pain when applying pressure around the heel
- Presence of swelling below the heel and around the ankle
- Chronic pain may result in burning and tingling sensations extending from the heel region

If plantar fasciitis is neglected in the early stages, it can progress to a chronic condition known as plantar fasciopathy. Plantar fasciopathy is more difficult to treat so if you are experiencing heel pain, do see a podiatrist to have it checked.
