You may have plantar fasciitis, a painful condition that is very common in runners or people who stand on their feet for long periods. Foot pain can inhibit a person from doing even the simplest activities, such as playing on the beach, washing dishes, or taking a walk with family members. Kids can experience foot pain for a lot of reasons. Sometimes you may feel as if your feet is on fire.
There are many conservative treatments for plantar fasciitis that when used accordingly are very successful. Your podiatric physician may refer you to a physical therapist to aid in your treatment and to teach you the most effective stretching techniques for your foot type and condition. You may also be advised to wear a night splint that stretches your tendons and fascia in your foot while you sleep. These treatments can significantly reduce the inflammation of your plantar fascia and thus reduce your pain. You should be wearing shoes that properly stabilize your foot and support your arch. Your podiatric physician can provide you with a prefabricated or custom orthotic that would give your achy foot the support it need. It takes time and therapy to improve the integrity of the tissue.

As you can imagine, healthy feet are critical to a successful golf game.

Symptoms include sharp pain in the middle part of the foot, callousing around the toes, and tingling sensation and severe pain while walking or standing. Pain in the middle of the leg, i.e. in the metatarsals is also one of the symptoms of arthritis.
Unlike the great Roman arches the ones in our feet are designed to be flexible- to “give and take”- upon impact with the ground. That is how the arches both absorb and reflect the force of impact back to the outside world. The arches in our feet are complex structures made up of 24 bones. One of the main sources of foot arch pain is a condition known as plantar fasciitis.
