Plantar fasciitis? It might not be!

Sep 16, 2021

Have you been diagnosed with plantar fasciitis? Was your practitioner a foot pain specialist? If not, you could be suffering from a totally different condition that only seems like plantar fasciitis.

‘There are more than 6 different diagnoses that, unless you are seen by a specialist, can be confused with the symptoms of plantar fasciitis. It is important to have a thorough assessment as treatments for these conditions are very different.’

If these other conditions are left undiagnosed and untreated, the pain and problems you are experiencing will continue indefinitely – and will likely become worse over time.

Pain in feet that is not addressed without doubt leads to further problems such as knee, hip and back pain

Three main indicators that you need further assessment of your foot pain:
