Maybe you recognize these signs: pain in the bottom of the heel that is usually worse in the morning and gets slightly better as you start moving around during the day. It’s hard to walk or run for longer periods of time. By the end of the day, the sharp pain might transform into a dull ache instead. Welcome to the dreaded world of Plantar Fasciitis – an inflammation of the fascia (tissue) that holds up the bones on the bottom of your foot. If you’ve ever had it, you know how painful and frustrating it can be.
