Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia close to the heel bone. Plantar fasciitis presents with pain with the first few steps in the morning or after a period of rest. . A sudden increase in activity often triggers heel pain, more so following an extended period of inactivity. Plantar fasciitis may also start after wearing unsupported footwear combined with poor biomechanics. . Treatment involves rest or activity modification, icing, strengthening & stretch...ing our extrinsic leg and intrinsic foot muscles, using supportive footwear, and custom orthotic use. In more complicated cases of plantar heel pain, the use of night splints (The Strassburg Sock) and shockwave therapy, injection therapy (corticosteroids, platelet-rich plasma, autologous blood) and surgery. . Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain, but it is treatable. . If you need relief from plantar fasciitis, visit a chiropodist or podiatrist.

Callus and corns are thicker skin that forms on our feet. They can get thick enough that walking becomes painful. . Pressure and poor biomechanics and sometimes inappropriate shoes signal the skin to protect itself by forming callus and corns. Feet evolve as we age and callus and corns generally appear later in life. . Prevent callus and corns by wearing appropriate shoes and consider orthotics to offload high pressure areas. Home care for callus and corns should include regu...lar filing and moisturizing. Don't pick or peel your callus. Use over-the-counter remedies with caution as some of them may contain medications that can be harmful to the high risk foot (neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease). . We can help you remove painful callus and corns in a safe, clean environment with sterilized instruments. Chiropodists and Podiatrists are specially trained to do this. We can also help with providing special padding custom foot orthotics and orthopedic footwear. .
