What are the most common symptoms of plantar fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis typically causes sharp, stabbing heel pain that is most intense with the first steps in the morning or after periods of rest. The pain often occurs along the bottom of the foot and may worsen with prolonged standing or activity. This discomfort results from inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament.
