Plantar Fasciitis, Heel Pain Treatment in Perrysburg Ohio

What is Plantar Fasciitis?

      Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick ligament that runs along the bottom of your foot from your heel to your toes.

​

      When this tissue becomes irritated or overstressed, it can lead to sharp heel pain—especially with the first steps in the morning or after periods of rest.

Common Symptoms

  • Sharp pain in the bottom of the heel

  • Pain with first steps in the morning

  • Pain after standing or walking for long periods

  • Tightness in the arch or Achilles tendon

  • Symptoms that improve with movement but return later

Causes of Plantar Fasciitis

  • Flat feet or high arches

  • Poor footwear or lack of support
