Heel Pain

Heel pain is a common complaint that can be caused by one of several conditions. Patients with heel pain often have symptoms when walking or standing for long periods.

Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that causes heel pain. Plantar fasciitis is due to irritation and inflammation of the tight tissue that forms the arch of the foot. Common symptoms of plantar fasciitis include heel pain with prolonged walking and standing.

Arch Pain

Arch pain is a common foot complaint. Arch pain, also sometimes called a strain, often causes inflammation and a burning sensation under the arch of the foot. Treatment of arch pain often consists of adaptive footwear and inserts and physical therapy.

Achilles Tendonitis and Rupture

Achilles tendonitis causes pain at the back of the calf, and may result in a rupture of the Achilles tendon in severe cases. This can be caused due to sports injury, slips and fall and so on.

Heel Spur

A heel spur is a condition that is closely related to plantar fasciitis. A heel spur is a hook of bone that forms where the plantar fascia attaches to the heel bone.

Posterior Heel Pain

Posterior Tibial tendonitis is an uncommon problem of one of the major tendons in the foot. Problems with this tendon can be debilitating and requires intervention.

Flat Feet

Many injuries begin with the feet no surprise, since they are the first part of your body to absorb shock. Physical therapy and proper intervention can help the condition.
