If you experience foot pain caused by plantar fasciitis, you are most likely in search of successful plantar fasciitis pain therapy. You are not alone. Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of foot pain. This condition is due to an inflammation of the band of tissues (plantar fascia) connecting your heel to your toes.
Many people say that the pain feels like a stabbing or burning sensation that starts at the heel and tends to spread forward into the toes. This is why many folks are so desperate to find plantar fasciitis pain therapy. It can be agonizingly painful and will get worse without therapy.
The Causes
The first step in order to receive the correct form of plantar fasciitis pain therapy is to figure out the cause of the condition. There are many different factors that can cause plantar fasciitis, such as:
· Tight calf muscles
· Injury from running, jumping, etc.
· On-set Arthritis
· Poor-fitting shoes
Plantar Fasciitis Pain Therapy
You doctor or podiatrist can help you discover the cause of your condition. After the cause has been determined, your doctor will advise you on the best plantar fasciitis pain therapy.
Most of the time, plantar fasciitis pain therapy is easily conducted at home with exercise, rest and relaxation. Sometimes staying off your feet for a given amount of time is the best form of plantar fasciitis pain therapy. Other times, a doctor may tell you to apply tape across the plantar fascia located just in front of the heel where the arch begins to allow the inflammation to subside and the foot to heal correctly.
Another method of plantar fasciitis pain therapy is a series of exercises to strengthen the foot, stretching exercises and the application ice to the area of inflammation for 10 - 15 minutes, 3X a day to reduce pain and swelling.
Also, taking over-the-counter non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen (DO NOT take Aspirin) will help alleviate the pain. Finally, many doctors will suggest select stretching exercises as plantar fasciitis pain therapy for prevention and treatment.
Having plantar fascia is no fun. It can get in the way of your daily activities by limiting your mobility due to the pain. This is why plantar fasciitis pain therapy is necessary to eliminate the discomfort of this irritating condition.
