Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that causes pain and inflammation in the heel and bottom of the foot. It occurs when the plantar fascia, a band of tissue that supports the arch of the foot, becomes irritated or inflamed. This can lead to sharp pain, especially in the morning or after long periods of rest, and can make everyday activities like walking or standing uncomfortable. Many people experience plantar fasciitis due to overuse, poor foot mechanics, or other factors that put strain on the plantar fascia.

When discussing treatment options for plantar fasciitis, one approach is low- dose radiation therapy. The idea behind using low- dose radiation therapy to treat plantar fasciitis is that it can help reduce inflammation and alleviate pain in the heel and foot. Research shows that low doses of radiation therapy have an anti-inflammatory effect, which can be very beneficial for patients with chronic plantar fasciitis. The radiation works by affecting the inflammatory cells and pathways in the body which can help to break the cycle of chronic inflammation and pain.
