The plantar fascia is the flat band of tissue (ligament) that connects your heel bone to your toes and supports the arch of your foot.
Plantar fasciitis (pronounced fas-ee-eye-tus) is a swelling of this ligament. It is one of the most common causes of heel pain and can occur in one or both feet.
Plantar fasciitis is caused by strain to the plantar fascia under the foot, which could be caused by a degenerative condition or a previous injury.
Plantar fasciitis (foot pain) is more likely to affect women, and people aged 40 – 60. Other risk factors include:
Leaving plantar fasciitis untreated may result in chronic heel pain that affects your regular activities.
