Heel pain, can be a real bummer especially when it's such a daily struggle to even straighten up in the morning, or get going after a break. Sounds like classic plantar fasciitis, but hey, Achilles tendonitis isn't out of the question either. What you're describing matches with plantar fasciitis though – that sharp pain in the heel from a sleep or long rest? In Ayurveda, these issues are often linked to an imbalance of the Vata dosha, causing inflammation and stiffness in the body tissues.
First thing first, give your feet some TLC. An Ayurvedic practice of soaking your feet in warm water with a pinch of rock salt can help – do this at night for about 10-15 min. After the soak, massage them with warm sesame oil or even mustard oil, these oils are believed to be Vata pacifying in Ayurveda, and do it gently. Let it sit for a while before wiping off the excess. Try to do this daily if possible.
Another thing could be a change in your footwear, avoid walking barefoot on hard surfaces. Proper cushioning and arch support is key. I'm talking about good shoes, maybe even those with orthopedic insoles if you can get them.
For your diet, focus on foods that balance Vata dosha. Think warm, cooked, moist foods rather than dry or cold stuff. Spice it up a bit with ginger and turmeric – known for reducing inflammation and boosting digestion, both have anti-inflammatory properties and enhance the body's healing processes.
Stretching exercises, they're a big help! Simple calf stretches, foot stretches, twice a day would maintain flexibility in your feet and legs. Remember, overstretching isn't good either. It's sometimes about knowing your body limits.
Since you’re teaching and probably on your feet a lot, take a break every hour. Sit and just do some ankle rotations to get the blood flowing – quick and easy but helpful!
If the pain persists or worsens, definitely see a healthcare professional, because while Ayurveda can offer relief, some situations call for more specific medical interventions. Don't hesitate to seek that if things aren't improving, alright? You deserve to be comfortable and pain-free!
