Heel Spur
Cause:
Plantar fasciitis can be confused with a condition called tarsal tunnel syndrome. In this condition, an important nerve in the foot, the tibial nerve, is trapped and pinched as it passes through the tarsal tunnel, a condition analogous to carpal tunnel syndrome in the wrist. This may cause symptoms similar to the pain of a heel spur.
Treatment:
Give us a call today to make an appointment with our Board-Certified Pedorthist for a consultation and to have your feet properly fitted in the correct footwear for your foot type and shape as well as to address any pain or discomfort you may be having. Custom orthotics are another way to further alleviate pain. Our number is 206-364-1322.
