A member asked:

Gradual becoming sharp pain in area between toes and arch when shoes were stuck with tape and pulling down. only walked a few steps then removed tape.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ok: the plantar fascia go from the metatarsal head ( near the toes) to the heel. It acts like a spring for the foot. The tape can irritate or aleviate pain in this structure, it depends and is not predicatable. Some people with flat feet are better with an arch support and some get worse. have a doctor exam your foot and consider being fit for an orthotic
