Plantar fasciitis is by far the most common cause of arch pain in runners. 



Not surprisingly, most runners who get heel pain or arch pain think they have plantar fasciitis.



But sometimes runners have a more serious injury where there is actually a rip, a tear or what doctors referred to as a partial rupture of the plantar fascia ligament.

Today on the Doc On the Run Podcast, we’re talking about the top 3 clues of a plantar fascia rupture in a runner.
