It’s rare to need surgery for plantar fasciitis heel pain. But if you’ve attempted conservative care measures for a few months and still have persistent heel pain, Dr. Cedeno may recommend a surgical procedure like plantar fascia release, in which he cuts the plantar fascia to release the tension and therefore the pain.

Regardless of the plantar fasciitis treatment you choose, it’s important to take preventive steps to avoid recurrence. Dr. Cedeno focuses on true recovery, which means healing the ligament and then helping you avoid further damage.

What is plantar fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis is a condition involving inflammation in the long band of ligament tissue between your heel and toes. It’s the most common reason for heel pain.

Heel pain that usually happens when you first get out of bed is the main symptom of plantar fasciitis. You might also experience arch pain, heel stiffness, and swelling on the bottom of your heel.

Although the pain usually goes away after you walk around, it generally comes back following any long period of rest. The first few steps of the day are so painful because your plantar fascia retracts overnight, causing the ligament to pull at your heel until it stretches out again.
