Calf and hamstring tightness is a factor in patients with plantar fasciitis or heel pain.

      

foot pain

 

New research suggests that not only is calf tightness a risk factor for developing plantar fasciitis and heel pain, but also hamstring tightness. This recent study published in the Jan. 2013 issue of Foot and Ankle International Journal confirms this. How can you prevent and treat this often disabling issue? Stretch both muscles in the back of the lower leg and thigh regularly.
