Learn How To Manage Heel Pain (Plantar fasciitis)

Komal is in great pain. Every step she takes brings a fresh wave of pain from her left heel. All she wants to do is to go home and take rest. But what about the meeting with the new clients? And the project that is due tomorrow? Komal clenched her teeth to control the pain. It’s just heel pain, she thought. It will go away on its own.

Sadly, such an attitude towards heel pain is quite common. People are just not ready to take heel pain seriously. Heel pain usually arises from Plantar fasciitis, which is a foot condition when a band of tissue at the sole of the feet becomes inflamed.

The pain of plantar fasciitis can be so bad that it hurts to walk, much less exercise or do daily activities. But a few simple changes and precautions at home can help reduce the pain in your heels.  

Tips for home

• Use an ice pack to reduce swelling.
• Avoid walking on uneven surfaces.
• Rest your feet by using them as less as possible. 

In order to make sure that you are providing the maximum care possible for your heel, you can do the following:

• Wear special splints at night.
• Undergo physical therapy.
• Use custom-made shoes.

Exercise for Heel Pain

You may be able to relieve heel pain by stretching tight calf muscles.

• Stand about 1 ft from a wall and place the palms of both hands against the wall at chest level.
• Step back with one foot, keeping that leg straight at the knee, and both feet flat on the floor.
• Bend your front leg at the knee, and press the wall with both hands until you feel a gentle stretch on your back leg.
• Hold the position and count for 10 and then switch to the other leg.

Preventing Heel pain

• Lose weight if you struggle with heel pain often.
• Buy shoes which are sturdy enough to support your feet.
• Don’t wear worn-out shoes.
• Don’t walk barefoot on hard surfaces.
• If you go running regularly, buy good-quality cushioned shoes which give support to your feet.
