Morning Heel Pain - Plantar Fasciitis

  • 7 years ago
The painful condition medically known as “plantar fasciitis” is the most widespread reason people have foot and heel pain. Plantar fasciitis is caused by inflammation of a thick band of tissue that spreads across the sole of your foot which connects your heel bone to your toes. That tissue is called the plantar fascia. If you have plantar fasciitis then the most common complaint people have is severe stabbing pain in the heel that usually occurs with your first step in the morning. As you get up and move around, the pain usually decreases. However, the pain may return after long periods of standing up or after standing up from sitting a long time. Plantar fasciitis is actually very common in runners and joggers. It is also common in people who are overweight and those who use footwear with inadequate ankle support.

The Stretch-Away Plantar Fasciitis Night Brace is designed to gently stretch the plantar fascia while you sleep. So when you wake in the morning, the tissue is already stretched out and you avoid having the foot and heel pain.
