Plantar fasciitis: Or bursitis/tendonitis of some type are most likely problems. See podiatrist.

Plantar fascitiis: Does not have to be painful in the heel. The fascia originates in the heel runs under the arch and inserts near the base of the toes. So anywhere along it's course you could have pain. Try wearing an arch support.

Plantar fasciitis: There are several things you can do on your own. But, if they don't work, you will need to go to the podiatrist for help. Stretch your calf muscle, ice your heel and arch, take an NSAID if you don't have an allergy/intolerance, wear a very good supportive shoe with a good quality otc arch support, avoid barefoot or flat shoes.
