FAQ
Common questions
Why is heel pain worst in the morning?
The tissue under the foot tightens overnight, so the first steps stretch it suddenly. Morning stretches can help.
Should I walk barefoot?
Walking barefoot on hard floors often makes heel pain worse. Supportive shoes or slippers at home usually help.
How long does plantar fasciitis take to heal?
Many people improve within a few weeks to a few months with the right exercises and footwear.
