HEEL PAIN IS MORE COMMON THAN YOU THINK
Do you feel pain in your heel as you step onto the ground in the morning when you get out of bed? Or does the pain happens later in the day as you walk or stand? The pain that occurs in the heel is also known as plantar fasciitis.
足跟痛是一种常见的足部疾病。足跟痛往往是由足底筋膜炎和跟骨骨刺引起的。典型表现就是早晨起床后站立或走路时疼痛较重，行走片刻后疼痛减轻，但行走或者站立的时间过久，又会感到脚跟疼痛难忍。中医认为，足跟痛多属肝肾阴虚、痰湿、血热等因所致。肝主筋、肾主骨，肝肾亏虚，筋骨失养，复感风寒湿邪或慢性劳损便导致经络瘀滞，气血运行不畅，不通则痛，出现足跟痛的问题。所以中医治疗足跟痛，应当以滋补肝肾为主，结合活血化瘀、除湿散寒，促进足跟处气血运行，达到通则不痛的目的。
In most cases, plantar fasciitis occurs gradually – starting out as mild pain and worsening as time goes by. While the mild pain can slowly disappear without any treatment needed, it can also become chronic, affecting your daily life.

Stretch
While its important to stretch after exercising, it’s also important to stretch before exercising to warm up the muscles and loosen them. Stretch your calves and also the bottom of your foot. These exercises can help to strengthen the muscles around those areas, stabilizing your ankle by giving them better support as you walk.
-
Athletic Tape
You can also purchase athletic tape at drugstores to support your foot and prevent your foot from moving in a way that will worsen the plantar fasciitis.
-
Weight Loss
Gaining one kg of weight can increase the pressure on your feet, ankles and knees up to four times! Maintain a healthy weight to keep the pressure off your heel.
