    Foot Pain20 May 2026

    One of the most common causes of heel and foot pain seen in the outpatient setting is plantar fasciitis. It is seen as a result of tightening or inflammation of the plantar fascia.This fascia is a connective tissue that extends from the base of the heel attaching to the base of the toes and plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the arch of the foot, weight bearing and shock absorption. The tension created in the plantar fascia is also crucial in providing stability to the ankle and foot while keeping muscle activity at a minimum. It is most commonly seen in active working adults and 10 to 20 % of runners also present with heel and foot pain that is attributed to the plantar fascia.
