Brief Answer:
THis is typical of plantarfasciitis!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

This is plantar fasciitis. Age, excess weight, faulty foot wear, etc are some known risk factors. Main treatment consist of physical therapy, night splints changes and orthodontics are the best approaches to this. Drugs and surgery may only come in when you have failed the above measures. I will suggest you read more about your condition on a well summarized site and return to me with more questions and ask for clarifications if you need any.
