@drbraceofficial: Why Your First Step Feels Like Walking on Glass? That sharp, stabbing alarm on your very first step out of bed isn't random, it's a mechanical load issue. 🛑 While you sleep, your plantar fascia rests in a tight, shortened position. The second your full body weight hits the floor, that stiff band of tissue is forced to stretch instantly. The result? Microscopic tears right where the fascia attaches to your heel bone. The Bedside Fix: - Keep a massage ball or roller next to your bed. - Spend 60 seconds rolling out your arch before your feet ever touch the floor. - Prepare the tissue for load instead of tearing it instantly. If your morning heel pain isn't improving, it’s not because you walked too much yesterday, it’s because you aren't preparing the tissue for today. Do you get this exact stabbing pain in the morning?
