🌅 Why is your heel pain worse in the morning?
If your first few steps out of bed feel sharp, stabbing, or like you are walking on a nail, plantar fasciitis may be the reason.
This common condition happens when the thick band of tissue along the bottom of the foot becomes irritated and inflamed. It is one of the leading causes of heel pain.
⚡ Ignoring heel pain can lead to chronic discomfort and changes in the way you walk.
✅ Treatment may include stretching, supportive footwear, custom orthotics, physical therapy, or advanced therapies designed to support healing.
