Join hosts Dr. Rush and Dr. Sharkey for an episode all about plantar heel pain or plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia is a bow-string shaped support of the arch that functions to absorb the stress and shock placed on our feet with activity. Plantar fasciitis is a painful inflammation of the plantar fascia that occurs when excess tension and repetitive stress are placed on the structure causing damage and small tears. There are more than 3 million cases of plantar fasciitis per year in the US alone. Listen in as Dr. Sharkey discusses symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of this painful condition.
