Plantar fasciitis can affect individuals of various ages and lifestyles. However, certain factors increase the risk of developing this condition. Athletes and individuals who engage in high-impact activities or repetitive motions that strain the foot, such as running or dancing, are more susceptible to plantar fasciitis.
Additionally, individuals who are overweight or obese, have flat feet or high arches, or wear unsupportive footwear are also at a higher risk. By understanding these risk factors, individuals can take proactive steps to prevent plantar fasciitis or seek early treatment if symptoms arise.
