Follow on Google News | What Happened to Aaron Ross? find out all about plantar fasciitis!Every now and then one of my preferred athletes has to take some time off for a month or two because of plantar fasciitis. What is that plantar fasciitis that all the athletes are afraid of?
By: Elrofeet Plantar fasciitis is a pain in the bottom of the foot usually around the heel. That pain especially hurts first thing in the morning while trying to get out of bed or after sitting for awhile. The peculiar name plantar fasciitis comes from: "Plantar" which is the bottom of the foot, "fascia" which is a type of ligament or connective tissue, and "itis" which means"inflammation" The plantar fascia is a basically fixed, strong, fibrous band on the lower part of the foot. This band assists keep the sophisticated arch system of the foot, it is a shock absorber, plays a role in one's balance and in the different aspects of gait. The plantar fascia transmits the weight through the lower part of the foot every step you are taking. At the moment the heel of the trailing foot begins to leave the ground, the plantar fascia band is getting tension that is close to two times body weight. If the calf muscles are not flexible than the tension is even higher. Plantar Fasciitis soreness will commonly be near the heel but it can happen anywhere through the Plantar Fascia band. If the band gets bruised or pulled, the inflammation will cause the pain. It can also be partly detached from the heel and a calcium deposit can form - a heel spur. Plantar fasciitis is mixed up with a heel spur Despite the fact that they are not exactly the same. A heel spur is a bony growth that takes place at the connection of the fascia with the heel bone (calcaneus). A heel spur may be present on a foot with no symptoms at all. A painful heel not necessarily mean a heel spur present. Heal spur and painful heel does not necessarily cohere. Plantar fasciitis symptoms are more prevalent in middle-aged people. It also occurs in younger individuals who spend time on their feet a lot, like athletes or soldiers. It can happen in one foot or both feet. Plantar fasciitis or heel spurs are common in sports which include running, dancing or jumping. Runners whose feet overpronate (feet rolling in or flattening) are especially at risk as the biomechanics of the foot causes additional stretching of the band. Want to know more?
