Fasciitis Treatment in West Delhi

Overview

The fascia is a skinny yet strong connective tissue layer that surrounds and supports muscles, nerves, and organs. This condition causes irritation or inflammation of this tissue caused by stress, damage, or misuse.

• Plantar fasciitis: Affects the tissue at the bottom of the foot, connecting the heel to the toes.
• Myofascial Pain Syndrome: Trigger points in muscles cause pain and stiffness.
• Eosinophilic Fasciitis: A rare autoimmune condition resulting in thickened fascia.

Fasciitis usually occurs in active adults, not strictly only athletes. These individuals also tend to stand for long hours each day.

Causes of Fasciitis

• Overuse & Stress: Repetitive activities like running, standing, or lifting.
• Footwear Problems: Wearing unsupportive shoes or high heels.
• Sudden Weight Gain: Increased pressure on the fascia.
• Occupational Risks: Jobs requiring prolonged standing.
• Injuries or Trauma: Also, strains, micro tears, or accidents.
• Age Factor: Because "Fascia becomes less flexible with age".
• Chronic Health Conditions: Diabetes, obesity, and autoimmune disorders.

Symptoms of Fasciitis

• Typical for plantar fasciitis, heel pain is worse in the morning.
• Sharp or stabbing pain in the area affected.
• Muscle tightness, knots, or tender trigger points.
• Swelling, stiffness, or limited mobility.
• Pain aggravated by activity or after long periods of quiet rest.
• Discomfort when walking barefoot over hard surfaces

Fasciitis Diagnosis

At Dr Ekta's Pain Management Clinic, diagnosis involves:-

• History & Examination: Reviewing activity levels, type of footwear, and location of pain.
• Physical examination: Includes tender spots, swelling, and limitations of movement.
• Imaging:
• X-ray eliminates a bone spur or fracture.
• Ultrasound identifies the inflammation of the fascia.
• MRI for stuck cases: displays soft tissues precisely.
• Trigger point testing for myofascial pain.
• Blood tests may be done rarely to determine autoimmune fasciitis.
