Although most people experience heel pain following rest, which typically is first step in the morning, there are some that only note it by the end of the day. The pain occurs because they have been active, standing and walking all day. The Plantar Fascia (the band under the foot) may get irritated from overuse, just like any part of the body. Sometimes, the pain is just basically tired feet, which ease with elevation. Nevertheless, if after rest you attempt to stand up and walk and note a pain in the arch or heels then you may be developing Plantar Fasciitis. Treat it now; don’t wait till it is bad. Early treatment of this condition is preferable because typically custom functional orthotics and in some cases even over-the-counter inserts may quickly reverse the problem. Avoid walking barefooted for a while, stop wearing non-supportive flip-flops, and make sure the shoes you wear all day have some support built in.
