Braces for Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis is a very painful condition affecting the bottom of the foot. The heel bone is connected to the toes by a band of tissue known as the plantar fascia. When the fascia is overstretched or overused, it can become inflamed and cause difficulty walking and extreme pain, especially in the bottom of the heel. People who suffer from this condition can treat the pain with heel stretching exercises, anti-inflammatory medications, and can wear a plantar fasciitis brace for walking and a night splint during sleep.
