The plantar fascia is a fibrous tissue that extends from the bottom of your heel to the bottom of your forefoot. This fascia can be inflamed from repetitive trauma such as running long distances, being on your feet all day, or from unsupportive shoes gear causing the foot to over-pronate or flatten out and stressing the plantar fascia. Sometimes you may even see bone spurs on the heel bone on an x-ray. The pain isn\u2019t usually from the bone spur in most cases but from the micro tears caused by the stretching of the plantar fascia. If you wake up and the first step down on the ground hurts the worst, you most likely have plantar fasciitis.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"accordion-4171545902\" class=\"accordion-item\"><a id=\"accordion-4171545902-label\" href=\"#\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-4171545902-content\"><button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\"><\/i><\/button><span>Heel Spur<\/span><\/a><div id=\"accordion-4171545902-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-4171545902-label\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"icon-box featured-box icon-box-left text-left\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-img\" style=\"width: 60px\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-inner\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"70\" height=\"71\" src=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/heel-spur.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-text last-reset\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"uppercase\">Heel Spur<\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<p>A heel spur is a calcium deposit causing a bony protrusion on the underside of the heel bone.

Strong enough to bear your body weight and enable you to move, your ankle can be prone to injury and pain.<\/p>\n<p>You might feel the pain on the inside or outside of your ankle or along the Achilles tendon, which connects the muscles in your lower leg to your heel bone. Although mild ankle pain often responds well to home treatments, it can take time to resolve. You should see your doctor for severe ankle pain, especially if it follows an injury.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"accordion-3679963872\" class=\"accordion-item\"><a id=\"accordion-3679963872-label\" href=\"#\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-3679963872-content\"><button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\"><\/i><\/button><span>Fungal Toe Nails<\/span><\/a><div id=\"accordion-3679963872-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-3679963872-label\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"icon-box featured-box icon-box-left text-left\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-img\" style=\"width: 60px\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-inner\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"70\" height=\"71\" src=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/fungal-toe-nails.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-text last-reset\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"uppercase\">Fungal Toe Nails<\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<p>Nail fungus is a common condition that begins as a white or yellow spot under the tip of your fingernail or toenail. As the fungal infection goes deeper, nail fungus may cause your nail to discolor, thicken and crumble at the edge. It can affect several nails.<\/p>\n<p>If your condition is mild and not bothering you, you may not need treatment. If your nail fungus is painful and has caused thickened nails, self-care steps and medications may help. But even if treatment is successful, nail fungus often comes back.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-20","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.13 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Foot and Ankle Care of South Jersey Provides Patient Education<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Foot and Ankle Care of South Jersey provides patient education on common conditions we treat.
