1. Flat Feet Flat feet are a common issue doctors diagnose, leading to Plantar Fasciitis. Having flat feet means that your feet tend to roll inward, causing all the weight to concentrate on the inside of your sole. It's similar to driving a car with a flat tire. This is why insoles are recommended to adjust the angle of your feet. But, it's just a temporary fix, like you put a band-aid on the scar. 2. Tight calf When examining the anatomy of the foot, it becomes apparent that most of the muscle in the calves is actually located on the sole of the foot, like Posterior Tibialis, Flexor digitorum longus, and Flexor hallucis longus. This means that if you have tight calf muscles, it can also affect your feet, leading to the development of plantar fasciitis. 3. Weak or Tight Hip Muscles It's not commonly known, but if you have weak hip muscles, your hip tends to rotate inward, which is called internal rotation. This inward rotation affects your thigh and knee, causing them to also turn inward. Consequently, your feet will be inverted due to these reasons. Having inverted feet is similar to having flat feet and can cause inflammation of the plantar fascia, leading to pain. #heelpain #plantarfasciitis #selfcare Remember, it is important to see your doctor if you suspect plantar fasciitis to get a proper diagnosis and the right treatment path to treating your injury.
