What Is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is a condition that affects the plantar fascia, one of the primary ligaments of the feet. When the plantar fascia becomes aggravated, you may experience pain, inflammation, and mobility problems. Even worse, plantar fasciitis can sometimes lead to the development of heel spurs or bony growths that extend from the heel bone, causing additional pain and complications. If you're suffering from plantar fasciitis in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, contact Agape Foot Care to schedule an examination. Our staff will go over your treatment options and help you move forward so you can get back to enjoying life without the challenges of chronic foot pain.
How Do You Treat Plantar Fasciitis?
During your initial consultation, our team will perform a comprehensive exam and learn more about your symptoms before creating a customized treatment plan to provide relief. We may also order imaging tests to rule out other potential causes, but this is not always necessary. Treatment for plantar fasciitis typically involves physical therapy, supportive clothing (like orthotics or splints), and at-home care. Other options may include steroid injections to provide pain relief and promote healing.
What Are the Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis?
Without treatment, plantar fasciitis can lead to much more significant problems, including damage to the plantar fascia. We urge you to schedule an appointment at Agape Foot Care as soon as possible if you have noticed any of the following foot problems:
- Chronic pain that may worsen over time
- Inflammation
- Mobility problems
- Changes in your gait
- Sharp pain in the heel (which might indicate heel spurs)
Agape Foot Care Reviews
Left foot pain. I've had this unexplained for a while. An x-ray didn't explain why it was hurting, so I was referred to a podiatrist. Once I described what I was experiencing, the doctor went right to the spot it was hurting the most without me pointing at it. He had a quick diagnosis and gave me two steroid shots for my next two appts. I recommend him.
Dr. Smith came to my home today and he was so professional and very kind. My feet feel so much better.
Dr. Hayes took care of my daughter when she had an infected ingrown tonail. Hands down he is a wonderful Podiatrist!
After a very bad experience with another podiatrist I am blessed to have found Dr. Hayes
Dr. Phil is amazing. He removed my ingrown toenail and I have not had any problems since. Satisfied with my visit,
