Answer:

B) plantar fasciitis

Step-by-step explanation:

Plantar fasciitis is thought to be caused by biomechanical overuse from prolonged standing or running, thus creating microtears at the calcaneal enthesis. Also I just to the final and got it correct.

.An inflammation of the tissue under the foot (fascia) caused by overuse and improper athletic footwear and characterized by intense "start up" pain under the bone is called plantar fasciitis.

The plantar fascia is the thick tissue on the bottom of the foot. When this tissue becomes swollen or inflamed, it is called plantar fasciitis.
Pain is the main symptom and usually, the pain will ease in time
