Plantar Fasciitis: Regenerating the Sole, Not Just Masking the Pain
Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain, affecting athletes, workers on their feet, and even sedentary individuals. The condition arises from microtrauma and degeneration of the plantar fascia, a thick band of connective tissue that supports the arch and absorbs impact during gait. Patients typically describe a sharp, stabbing pain near the heel, worst with the first steps in the morning or after prolonged standing.
