Plantar Fasciitis Symptoms & Signs

Stiffness

Another way to identify plantar fascia is to look for stiffness in these areas. This symptom is mainly triggered by the inflammation and irritation of your ligaments. You often feel it at the bottom of the feet down your heel, which is around 4 cm from the direction to the toes. It might get worse when you run, move, or do physical activities. If the stress and pressure are too much, the condition would lead to tiny tears and severe damages. There are some home remedies to this sign such as applying ice packs or taking over-the-counter medications. [3]
