- Plantar fasciitis symptoms, according to Jordan Mezel M.D., (accredited sports medicine physician at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City) often include:
- Sharp stab/ache in heel or along the arch
- Pain in heel or arch when taking first steps out of bed in the morning
- Pain tends to dissipate during a run
- Pain tends to aggravate while running or pushing off foot
- Plantar fasciitis is a result of overload to the plantar fascia, a connective tissue that runs from the bottom of the foot starting at the heel to each toe.
- As runners increase their running regimes, they are more susceptible to injuries. Jordan Mezel M.D., an accredited sports medicine physician at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, mentions that if tight calf muscles “pull on the plantar fascia, [it can] cause lots of pain… and [it] can heal exceptionally slow.”
- Athletes go through rigorous training, but lack time and key factors to keep them pain and injury free.
