In most instances, the second you step out of your car your heels will begin to hurt. This pain is caused\u00a0because\u00a0the plantar fascia ligament becomes tightened while you are at rest driving.<\/p>\n<h2>Other Signs\u00a0Heel Pain is Caused by Driving<\/h2>\n<p>If you get sore heels from driving, you may also experience a variety of other symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stiffness in the bottom of the heel<\/li>\n<li>Foot arch pain<\/li>\n<li>Heel pain first thing in the morning<\/li>\n<li>Pain throughout the day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These symptoms are indication that the underlying problem causing your heel pain is plantar fasciitis. Driving can aggravate this condition because your foot is rested in an unnatural position.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/discounts\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-141595\" src=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts.png\" alt=\"Orthotic heel pain discount kits\" width=\"2480\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts.png 2480w, https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts-510x72.png 510w, https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts-300x42.png 300w, https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts-768x108.png 768w, https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts-1024x145.png 1024w, https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Heel-That-Pain-Discounts-1080x152.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2480px) 100vw, 2480px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>What Does Heel Pain Mean?<\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t ignore the pain in your heel you experience when you get out of the car after a long drive. Heel pain is a problem that will increase if it is not treated properly. You are most likely suffering from\u00a0plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, or another medical condition, which should be addressed immediately.\u00a0Regardless, fixing the problem should be your goal.<\/p>\n<h2>Treatment<\/h2>\n<p>Treating heel pain that occurs from driving and other activities is important. Sometimes basic stretching,\u00a0icing, and resting from exercise\u00a0will do the trick. <a href=\"\/treatments\/htp-heel-seats\">Plantar fasciitis inserts<\/a> are another option for when you are on-the-go. The combination of these treatment options will ease the pain in your heel when you&#8217;re driving, and all throughout the day.<\/p>\n<h2>Heel Pain Articles:<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/heel-pain\/heel-pain-causes\/\">Causes of Heel Pain<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/heel-pain\/morning-heel-pain\/\">Morning Heel Pain<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/heelthatpain.com\/heel-pain\/numbness\/\">Heel Numbness<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_shop type=&#8221;best_selling&#8221; posts_number=&#8221;4&#8243; columns_number=&#8221;2&#8243; orderby=&#8221;popularity&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Shop&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221;][\/et_pb_shop][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Considering that over 50 percent of Americans will experience heel pain at some point in their lifetime, it&#8217;s clear that heel pain is a real problem &#8211; and it&#8217;s common to experience heel or foot pain in the car when you are driving.
