Plantar Fasciitis

Heel pain is typically caused by plantar fasciitis, which is an inflammation of the tissue between your heel and your toes. When a spur is present, it is sometimes also called heel spur syndrome. You may also be at an increased risk of Plantar Fasciitis if you have an unusual walk, flat feet or high arches, tight Achilles tendons or heel cords, or often wear high heels or shoes with thin or worn-out soles.
