Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain. Premier Orthopaedic Associates provides expert evaluation and treatment options to relieve pain, restore mobility, and prevent chronic complications.
At Premier Orthopaedic Associates, we treat a wide range of foot and ankle conditions, including plantar fasciitis. As one of the most common causes of heel pain, this condition can significantly affect daily comfort and mobility. Our team uses advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment plans to help patients heal and return to active lifestyles.
With consistent treatment, most people see significant improvement in a few months. Supportive footwear and orthotics play a key role in reducing recurrence by improving comfort, redistributing pressure, and protecting against further strain. Only rarely is surgery considered necessary for severe, treatment-resistant plantar fasciitis.
