In addition to medical treatments, making certain lifestyle adjustments can be crucial in managing plantar fasciitis. Choosing shoes with good arch support and a cushioned sole is essential to reduce stress on the plantar fascia.
Engaging in regular stretching exercises for the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia can help alleviate and prevent pain. It's also important to avoid walking barefoot on hard surfaces and to limit activities that place a lot of stress on your heel, like prolonged standing or running on hard surfaces.
Maintaining a healthy weight can also reduce the strain on your feet. Integrating these lifestyle changes with medical treatments can lead to more effective management of plantar fasciitis, resulting in faster recovery and reduced risk of recurrence.
