Plantar Fasciitis

Relief for Heel and Arch Pain

Specialized Care for Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It occurs when the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot from the heel bone to the toes, becomes irritated and inflamed. This condition often causes a dull, aching pain in the heel or arch that worsens with activity or after periods of rest. Burning sensations or tenderness along the bottom of the foot are also common symptoms.

At Lake Ridge & Stafford Foot & Ankle Specialists, we carefully evaluate the severity and cause of your plantar fasciitis, whether it’s related to overuse, flat feet, high arches, or bone spurs. Treatment options may include rest, stretching exercises, custom orthotics, night splints, anti-inflammatory medications, or cortisone injections for more persistent cases. Most patients find relief without the need for surgery, though surgical release may be considered if conservative care is not successful.



Our focus is on reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and helping you return to normal activity safely. With the right treatment plan, patients often experience significant improvement within weeks.
