I have a severe pain in my feet when I wake up every morning. The moment I put my feet down I feel a soreness and acute pain in the heel and it becomes almost impossible to walk. What should I do?

• Point your toes • Raise your heels • Squeeze your toes • Roll a ball. Roll a golf ball or tennis ball under the ball of your foot. Apply light pressure for about two minutes. • Stretch standing up. Stand up and place your toes against a wall; lean forward a little until you feel your arch stretch. Repeat using the other foot. Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation

Hi, it is plantar fasciitis, very common problem. Do calf muscles stretching exercises- pain is mostly due to tight calf muscles. If not improving in 4 days consult ortho doctor. Dr Gautam Tawari in Mumbai is good ortho doctor. Take care

Dear madam, the condition is called plantar fasciitis. Use soft footwear like MCR. Also do some stretching before getting up from bed. Take calcium and vitamin D supplements. Get well soon!!
