A member asked:
My mom's soles hurt after waking up or sitting for a long time. it's actually a heel pain. how to treat it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Plantar fasciitis: She likely has a condition called plantar fasciitis which is a condition where there is inflammation of the Achilles tendon as it connects to the heel bone. It is very common. Unfortunately it can take a while to resolve. Best is to see a podiatrist. In the mean time some stretching of that area can help.
