FL PLANTAR FASCIITIS LARGE

Whether moving around normally day-to-day or in rapid physical activity, the plantar fascia absorbs the high stresses from such activity. Since too much stress can overwhelm the plantar fascia, the body responds with the plantar fascia becoming inflamed. This results in heel pain and stiffness, and in extreme cases, the tissues can be damaged or torn.

There is generally no reason for plantar fasciitis developing, although there are factors that can make you more susceptible to it:

Obesity
New or increased activity
Tighter calf muscles
Very high arches
Repetitive impact activity
