What Is Plantar Fasciitis? Symptoms, Causes, and Stretches

Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the band of fibrous tissue, called the plantar fascia, located on the bottom of your foot. This condition causes heel and arch pain, as well as problems with walking. It occurs when the plantar fascia, which runs along the bottom of your foot, becomes overloaded or overstretched, creating microtears. This can happen due to a sudden increase in activities, such as running, dancing, or standing for long periods. Plantar fasciitis is usually treated with a combination of rest, ice, and stretching exercises.
