How to Tell the Difference: Plantar Fasciitis vs. Achilles Tendinitis

One of the most common complaints that people see a foot doctor about is heel pain. And unfortunately, when your feet hurt, there are not many ways to rest them because we need to get around. Podiatrists teach us that the two major causes of heel pain are plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis. The simplest way to figure out which one is causing your pain is by location. Generally, if the pain is under your heel bone, then it is likely to be plantar fasciitis. But if the pain is found at the back of your heel, inside the Achilles tendon (the long cord that extends from your calf to your heel bone) or toward its base, then you probably have Achilles tendinitis.
Achilles tendinits will probably go away on its own with some TLC. But plantar fasciitis needs more attention. You can get rid get rid of that painful “first step” in the morning -- before it even occurs -- by simply using a night brace. The Stretch-Away Plantar Fasciitis Night Brace gently pre-stretches the plantar fascia while you sleep. When you wake up and take your first step in the morning, your sole’s tissues are already stretched out, avoiding the foot and heel pain you would otherwise experience.
