What is Plantar Fasciitis? How to manage recurring Heel Pain - Principal Podiatrist Michael Lai

Plantar Fasciitis, also known as heel spur syndrome or heel pain, is a common foot condition that causes pain in the heel or plantar arch. It's a type of repetitive stress injury that affects the plantar fascia, a soft tissue connective structure that runs from the bottom of the heel (calcaneus) to the front of the foot. This structure acts as a strut that maintains the bridge of your arch.
If you're experiencing foot pain, a podiatrist can easily diagnose plantar fasciitis, which is a common foot condition in Singapore. However, managing Plantar Fasciitis requires a systematic, planned-out, multi-prong approach from a podiatrist. Management options may include shock wave therapy, prescription shoe insoles, sports taping, super inductive system therapy, and more. It's important to seek professional help to manage Plantar Fasciitis in a timely manner.
Don't let Plantar Fasciitis keep you from enjoying your daily activities. Get the help you need from a podiatrist as soon as you can!
