Plantar Fasciitis (heel pain) is a painful condition affecting the sole of the foot.
The common symptoms…..
Is your foot stiff and painful first thing in the morning or after rest?
Is your foot in pain when you run or walk? Or after you’ve finished?
Is your foot pain preventing you from going about your normal daily activities like walking the dog, shopping, exercising?
We offer specialist treatment for plantar fascia at Earlham House Clinic, with clinically proven treatment & advice
Plantar fasciitis is often associated with running. What is the cause?
Often there is no easy cause for plantar fasciitis, especially in older people.
It can be related to exercising on a different surface or wearing shoes with poor arch support, sudden overuse of the sole of the foot such as increased running intensity or distance.
At Earlham House Clinics in Norfolk we have expertise in treating plantar fasciitis.
