Transcript

Planner fasciitis is definitely one of  the most common things we see. Just kind of starts with that dull insidious ache in  the bottom of your heel and just doesn’t go away. Typically it’s worse in the morning  but when it’s at the height of the disease it can hurt all day. When you come and  see us we’ll offer you a whole host of options to get it feeling better. We kind  of call it a shotgun approach and if it
gets to the point where you don’t feel like  you’re making the progress there are a few different things that we can do surgically to get this better for you quickly.
