The arch collapses over time
Plantar fascia overstretches and develops micro-tears
Inflammation + scar tissue form
Every step reinjures the tissue
Pain becomes chronic → especially in the morning
The calf muscles tighten overnight and pull on the heel, making the first steps more painful.
This requires:
Custom orthotics → reposition the arch + remove daily strain
Stretching & massage → restore elasticity, reduce micro-tearing
Night splint → prevents tightening overnight
This combination treats both symptoms and root cause.
