If you have been experiencing heel pain that isn't going away, you should visit a podiatrist to get checked for plantar fasciitis. This condition occurs when the ligament in the arch of the foot is injured or overworked and becomes inflamed. There are many conservative treatments, such as shoe inserts, steroid injections, and physical therapy that you can try first before a patient has to resort to surgery. With your podiatrist's recommendations, you may want to try a physical therapy method called foam rolling.
