Don’t struggle any more with moving around or accomplishing basic tasks. Heel pain, or plantar fasciitis is one of the most common conditions seen at the foot and ankle clinic. Please read our media article on ‘healing heels’ for more information.
Most of the time, this can initially be managed with stretches, cushioning of the foot and activity modification.
The majority of patients are expected to get better with time. In some patients, symptoms persist or return and further treatment may be necessary.
Options For Persistent Heel Pain (Heel Spurs) Treatment In Singapore
There are a variety of treatment approaches for when symptoms do not improve. These can include injections, ultrasound treatment, or open surgery to release the fascia to name a few.
In recent years, Dr Tan has been using an endoscopic (keyhole) release of the fascia for chronic plantar fasciitis treatment with notable success in Singapore. This can also be combined with a radiofrequency coblation of the fascia through the same minimally invasive procedure.
