What is plantar fasciitis?
-The plantar fascia is made up of three thick flat, fibrous bands on the bottom of your foot. These three bands help form the arch of your foot. With plantar fasciitis you may have sustained some micro tears in the band or bands. The microtears result in inflammation of the plantar fascia. “Itis” refers to inflammation. Hence the name plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia bands have a poor blood supply and generally do not heal quickly.
How long will it take for my plantar fasciitis to heal.
-Recovery can take anywhere between 6 weeks to 3 years depending upon how quickly you address the problem and other factors.
