Heel pain is a common ailment that can significantly impact daily activities and overall quality of life. Often resulting from conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, or heel spurs, heel pain can be managed and prevented with several proactive steps.

If you’re a golfer, you may share a similar condition with PGA Tour champion, Tiger Woods. No, unfortunately it’s not his amazing swing but rather a foot disorder that we at Pasco-Hernando Foot & Ankle often see in golfers: plantar fasciitis.

Heel pain can have a few different causes. At Pasco-Hernando Foot & Ankle, we know that heel pain may start as dull and intermittent, but as time goes on and the pain gets more intense and constant, it becomes quite debilitating and may limit your ability to be as active as you would like.
