Heel Pain Surgery

Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the tissue along the bottom of the foot, causing heel pain, especially with the first few steps in the morning. It often results from strain on the plantar fascia due to factors like flat feet, high arches, poor shoes, or overuse.

Treatment Options

Non-Surgical: Rest, ice, stretching, anti-inflammatory medications, and orthotics often relieve symptoms.
Injections: Cortisone injections, PRP, and Placental Stem Cell Injections can help manage pain.
Surgery: If other treatments fail, Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy (EPF) can release tight fascia, providing long-term relief.

Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy Surgery

Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy (EPF) Surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that releases the plantar fascia to reduce pain and tightness. Most patients experience significant relief and can walk soon after the procedure.
