Understanding Plantar Fasciitis

Evidence-based treatment for heel pain caused by plantar fascia inflammation, using conservative care and targeted procedures when needed.

Why does the Plantar Fasciitis deteriorate?

Plantar fascia irritation worsens due to overuse, prolonged standing, improper footwear, high-impact activities, tight calf muscles, sudden weight gain, or biomechanical foot problems. Continued strain prevents healing and increases pain.

How does Plantar Fasciitis help?

Treatment reduces inflammation of the plantar fascia, restores normal foot biomechanics, relieves heel pain, and improves walking comfort. A stepwise approach — rest, stretching, orthotics, physiotherapy, injections, and, rarely, minimal surgery — gives high success rates.

Benefits of Modern TKR Techniques:

Significant pain reduction
Improved walking and standing tolerance
Non-surgical success in most cases
Custom orthotics restore foot mechanics
Faster recovery with guided physiotherapy
Minimally invasive options if conservative care fails

Is It Time for Plantar Fasciitis

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it may be time to consult a Plantar Fasciitis specialist:

Heel pain sharp pain on first steps in the morning
Pain after rest worse after long sitting then standing
Tenderness palpable at the plantar heel
Stiffness reduced ankle and toe extension
Pain with activity increases with running or prolonged standing

Choosing the Right Procedure

Not all Plantar Fasciitis are the same. Dr. Hemendra Agrawal offers personalized treatment based on your specific condition.

TypeBest ForWhat It InvolvesRecovery Time
Conservative CareMost patientsRest, stretching, night splints, shoe modification, physiotherapy4–12 weeks
Orthotic & Heel SupportBiomechanical causesCustom insoles, heel cups, supportive shoes2–8 weeks
Corticosteroid or PRP InjectionPersistent pain after conservative careTargeted injection to reduce inflammation or stimulate healing2–6 weeks
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)Chronic plantar fasciitisFocused shockwaves to stimulate healing4–12 weeks
Endoscopic Plantar Fascia ReleaseRare refractory casesPartial release of plantar fascia via small incision6–12 weeks

Conservative Care

Stretching calf/plantar fascia, activity modification and orthotics resolve most cases without surgery.

Orthotic & Heel Support

Corrects foot mechanics, reduces strain on the plantar fascia, and speeds recovery.

Corticosteroid or PRP Injection

Short-term pain relief (steroid) or tissue healing support (PRP) depending on case.

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)

Non-invasive option effective for chronic, resistant heel pain.

Endoscopic Plantar Fascia Release

Surgery reserved for patients who fail comprehensive conservative treatment.

The Plantar Fasciitis Procedure - Step by Step

Understanding the process helps reduce anxiety and prepares you for a smooth recovery.

Phase 1

Initial 0–6 Weeks

  • Rest and activity modification
  • Daily plantar fascia and calf stretching
  • Use of heel pads and supportive footwear
Phase 2

6–12 Weeks

  • Physiotherapy sessions
  • Custom orthotics if needed
  • Consider injection therapy for persistent cases
Phase 3

3–6 Months

  • Escalation to ESWT if pain persists
  • Gradual return to higher-impact activity
  • Surgical discussion for refractory pain
Phase 4

Post-Procedure Rehabilitation

  • Gradual loading exercises
  • Gait correction
  • Long-term strengthening and flexibility work
