Heel Pain/Palnter Fascitis

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.3.2″ text_font=”Montserrat|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_line_height=”2.1em”]

In Ayurveda, it’s called “Vatakantaka“. The most common form of heel pain is pain at the bottom of the heel. This pain in the morning, and after getting up to stand after sitting for a while. It can be a sharp, shooting pain or present as a tearing feeling at the bottom of the heel. As the condition progresses, there may be a throbbing pain or there may be soreness that radiates up the back of the leg. Pain may also radiate into the arch of the foot.

A heel spur is a calcium deposit causing a bony protrusion on the underside of the heel bone. Heel spurs (calcaneal spurs) are frequently associated with plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is a painful inflammation of the fibrous band of connective tissue, the plantar fascia, that runs along the bottom of the foot and connects the heel bone to the ball of the foot.

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.3.2″ text_font=”Montserrat|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_line_height=”2.1em”]

The root cause of vatakantaka is aggravated Vata dosha associated with ama (undigested food) and Kapha dosha.

Treatment of plantar fasciitis/ Heel pain is both local and systemic.

Systemically, in Ayurveda there are number of Vaatahar and guggulu formulations, which may be administered to relieve inflammation
Externally, the heel may be soaked in warm castor oil, or massaged with mahanarayan oil or vaatahar oils. After oiling, heat and cold may be applied alternately, dipping the heel in mustard seed tea, then ice water, then mustard seed tea, and so on
Yoga therapy should be used, since evidence-based medicine shows the efficacy of stretching the plantar fascia, while stretching of the calf muscles and Achilles tendon has also proved useful
Most types of MTP joint pain can be managed or at least alleviated by rest, elevation, oiling with warm mahanaryana oil/ Maha vishgarbha tailam and alternate heat and cold therapy as described above
Aagnikaram
Sit with your feet resting on a towel or a piece of fabric and pull or grab the fabric toward you with your toes as if you are going to pick up the towel with your foot.Repeat this exercise several times a day. Also stretching out that life nerve up the back of the leg.
