I’m also going to show you an effective plantar fasciitis stretch that may help with this condition. </p> <p>What is plantar fasciitis?</p> <p>The plantar fascia is a connective tissue sheath right underneath the foot. A lot of times, it can become inflamed, and you’ll feel pain mainly in the heel area, but sometimes in the middle of the foot. You could have micro-trauma going on, or you could also have a build-up of uric acid crystals. You could even have oxalate crystals that are depositing in your foot from certain things that you’re eating.</p> <p>Some people think that heel spurs are what’s causing their foot pain. But, this is not what’s actually causing the heel pain. There are a lot of people with spurs who don’t have pain, and people with pain that don’t have heel spurs. </p> <p>One of the biggest mistakes people make with plantar fasciitis is stretching the calf or foot. Stretching this soft tissue when you have micro-tearing can aggravate the tears. The last thing you want to do is stretch something that is torn or irritated. </p> <p>Oxalates come from certain foods. They can form kidney stones and can deposit in your joints, causing foot pain. </p> <p>Avoid these high oxalate foods:</p> <p> • Spinach </p> <p> • Almonds </p> <p> • Parsley </p> <p> • Chocolate </p> <p> • Peanuts </p> <p> • Kiwi </p> <p>You could also try consuming cheese or calcium with the above foods because the calcium will bind with the oxalates and block some of the absorption.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:</p> <p>Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.
