Plantar Fasciitis
The most common cause of heel pain that occurs after rest is plantar fasciitis. This often results when your arch flattens with standing. A heel spur can form where the plantar fascia attaches to the bone. Heel spurs can be diagnosed with an in-office X-ray. Non-surgical treatments, such as custom orthotic devices to support your arch, can alleviate your pain. Dr. Lambert has successfully treated hundreds of cases of plantar fasciitis.
