This can lead to pain in your heel which can make it hard to engage in normal life activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a veteran of military service, then the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (the VA) recognizes plantar fasciitis as a disabling condition that can qualify you for veterans&#8217; benefits, including monthly disability compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The law firm of Stone Rose Law can help you apply for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/va-disability-benefits-lawyers\/\">veterans benefits<\/a> for plantar fasciitis. If you have already applied for benefits and the VA has declined your claim, we can help you file a supplemental claim or appeal the denial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about how we can assist you with your service-connected plantar fasciitis claim and to schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced veterans benefits attorneys, <strong>call us at (480) 498-8998<\/strong>. We are also<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/contact-us\/\"> available online<\/a> if you want to ask a question or set up a free initial consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the VA Disability Ratings for Plantar Fasciitis?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the VA approves your disability benefits claim for plantar fasciitis, then it will assign to you a disability rating from 10% to 40% depending on the severity of your symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10% Disability Rating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this rating, your plantar fasciitis condition can affect either or both of your feet, but is responsive to non-surgical treatment like orthotics and weight management or surgical treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20% Disability Rating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This rating applies if only one of your feet is affected, but it is not responsive to surgical or non-surgical treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">30% Disability Rating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If plantar fasciitis affects both of your feet and is not responsive to surgical or non-surgical treatment, then this rating applies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">40% Disability Rating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your plantar fasciitis results in the loss of your ability to use one foot, then this is the rating you will receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TDIU Benefits for Plantar Fasciitis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your plantar fasciitis condition in combination with one or more other disabilities prevents you from getting or keeping substantially gainful employment, then total disability based on individual unemployability (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/how-to-qualify-for-tdiu\/\">TDIU<\/a>) may apply to you. TDIU<strong> <\/strong>is a monthly VA disability benefit that can pay monthly compensation for total disability even if your combined rating for plantar fasciitis and other disabilities does not equal 100 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two main ways that you can qualify for TDIU benefits with plantar fasciitis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Schedular TDIU<\/strong>: Your combined disability rating is at least 70%, with one individual disability rating of at least 40% (a 40% plantar fasciitis VA rating can qualify here); or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Extraschedular TDIU<\/strong>: If you do not qualify for schedular TDIU, but are still unable to work, then you may still qualify for extraschedular TDIU. The VA will consider your service-connected disabilities, employment history, educational and vocational attainment, and other relevant factors when deciding whether you are eligible for this benefit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applying for VA Disability Compensation for Plantar Fasciitis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You apply for plantar fasciitis VA benefits in the way that you apply for any other non-presumptive disability condition. You can apply based on a direct service connection, or a secondary condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Direct Service Connection Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To show a direct service connection between your plantar fasciitis condition and your military service, you will need to show the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You have a current medical diagnosis for plantar fasciitis from your podiatrist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You must have experienced an in-service event or condition that led to the plantar fasciitis condition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You must show a connection, or nexus, between the in-service event or condition and your current plantar fasciitis symptoms.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"989\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw-989x1024.jpg\" alt=\"va disability claim form\" class=\"wp-image-6551\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw-989x1024.jpg 989w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw-290x300.jpg 290w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw-768x795.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw-1483x1536.jpg 1483w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeZ6iez-u12wFSSINCuYjYj1z8mW7n3nWnem-hz5EEcYPTXFQAbAV8f1BeuD0Gv29qd2M8ymwsdD-5bhyrlj8tVivNARpy8d3rIP2JKdsvvNIStHvkI1YmDiE4neW_XFjEIoXaXvw.jpg 1545w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can file a claim for plantar fasciitis-related VA benefits using<a href=\"https:\/\/www.va.gov\/disability\/file-disability-claim-form-21-526ez\/introduction\"> VA Form 21-526EZ<\/a>. You can file the form online, or send it to the VA by mail, or you can submit your application at your nearest VA regional office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the VA form, you will need to provide enough supporting documentation to persuade the VA that it is more likely than not that your military service led to your plantar fasciitis symptoms, either by causing them or by aggravating a pre-existing condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This documentation can take several forms. The most common are your military records, your doctor&#8217;s medical diagnosis of plantar fasciitis, and supporting letters from people who are in position to witness the effect your condition has on your daily activities and your ability to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes, the VA will schedule you for a compensation and pension (C&amp;P) exam to get more information about your plantar fasciitis condition. Your attendance at a scheduled C&amp;P examination is important. During the exam, a VA examiner will review your service records and your medical records, ask you some questions about your symptoms, and possibly have you undergo some tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A veterans disability attorney can be helpful in assisting you to gather the supporting documents you will need to make the most compelling case to the VA, and help you to prepare for your C&amp;P exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Secondary Service Connection Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A secondary service connection disability is one that is caused by another disability that the VA has assigned a disability rating for. In the case of plantar fasciitis, other VA disabilities can be hip pain, back pain, or a flat feet condition that causes you to alter the way you walk. This altered gait can lead to the plantar fasciitis condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Distinguish Pes Planus from Plantar Fasciitis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because pes planus and plantar fasciitis both affect your feet and have some common symptoms, it can be easy to confuse these two conditions. But for VA disability purposes it is important to understand that they are different from one another in their causes and some of their symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People who develop plantar fasciitis can also get a foot condition called pes planus. For example, strenuous activities like running for long distances or standing for long periods can lead to both conditions. Having flat feet can place more pressure on your heels, and that can lead to strain on the plantar fascia which can aggravate a plantar fasciitis condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other causes of pes planus are different from those of plantar fasciitis. They include torn, stretched, or inflamed tendons, nerve damage, broken or dislocated bones in your feet, and co-existing conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Symptoms of pes planus include some that are similar to plantar fasciitis, like pain in the bottom of your feet, swelling, and leg and back pain. It also has some distinct symptoms, such as having trouble standing on your toes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plantar Fasciitis and Pes Planus Benefit Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to being a possible secondary service disability, plantar fasciitis can be a disability in addition to another foot-related disability. pes planus. Bilateral pes planus, when it exists with plantar fasciitis, can lead to a combined VA disability rating if the symptoms for each condition are distinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pes planus is a condition in which the arch of your foot is flatter than normal, to where it can touch the floor. &#8220;Bilateral pes planus&#8221; describes what happens then the condition affects both of your feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about how plantar fasciitis can combine with pes planus or another disability in a combined VA disability rating, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/va-disability-calculator\/\">VA Disability Calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Plantar Fasciitis?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The plantar fascia runs along the bottom of your foot and connects your toes to your heel bone. Inflammation of this tissue can lead to mild-to-intense pain on the bottom of your feet, especially when you put weight on the affected foot. In severe cases, plantar fasciitis can make it hard for you to walk or to stand for long periods of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veterans and Plantar Fasciitis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The physical demands of military service can contribute to the onset of plantar fasciitis or make an existing condition worse. Long hours spent on your feet, carrying heavy loads across uneven terrain, running, jumping, and strenuous exercises can all put stress on the plantar fascia tissue that eventually lead to plantar fasciitis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes of Plantar Fasciitis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to activities that put stress and pressure on the plantar fascia, other factors can contribute to a plantar fasciitis condition. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Your age<\/strong>: The older you are, especially starting around age 40, the more easily you can develop plantar fasciitis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your gender<\/strong>: Women are at a slightly higher risk of having plantar fasciitis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your weight<\/strong>: The heavier you are for your size, the more you become a candidate for plantar fasciitis. Obesity in particular is a risk factor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your physical activities<\/strong>: As we have shown above, strenuous physical activity that puts stress and pressure on your feet is a leading cause of plantar fasciitis. Wearing shoes that do not fit well or do not provide good cushioning, or high heels, can make it more likely that physical exertion can inflame the plantar fascia.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The structure of your foot<\/strong>: Sometimes the physical condition of your feet can heighten the risk of a plantar fasciitis condition. Pes planus, or &#8220;flat feet,&#8221; is a common example of a food condition that can worsen plantar fasciitis symptoms. Having a high arch in your feet can also be a factor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Walking mechanics<\/strong>: Sometimes the way you walk can contribute to plantar fasciitis. An example is inward pronation, also known as overpronation, a condition that happens when your foot rolls inward too much when the foot contacts the ground.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plantar Fasciitis Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main symptom of plantar fasciitis is pain and tenderness in the bottom of the affected foot, with the variable being the degree of pain and how and when pain occurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most people who suffer from plantar fasciitis pain report a feeling that gets worse when using the affected foot. The more you walk, the harder you exercise, the longer you stand, the more pain you experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Others experience plantar fasciitis symptoms that can be worse in the morning, but then lessens throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can experience heel pain in one or both feet that sufferers describe as a stabbing pain or shooting pain. It can be accompanied by heel swelling and a sense of tightening in your Achilles tendon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People who do not treat a plantar fasciitis condition can eventually begin to experience symptoms in other body parts, including pain in the knee, hip, and back. This happens because of conscious or unconscious adjustments they make when walking in an attempt to lessen the foot pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Did the VA Deny Your Plantar Fasciitis Claim?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The VA does not always approve first-time VA disability benefits claims. If this happens with your plantar fasciitis claim, you can still overcome that denial in one of the following ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You can file a supplemental claim to introduce new and relevant evidence to support your original claim.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can request a higher level review by another VA examiner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can make a formal appeal with the VA Board of Veterans\u2019 Appeals. This can be to provide additional evidence for review or to request a formal hearing before a Veterans Law Judge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1563\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA.jpg\" alt=\"va board of veterans' appeals form\" class=\"wp-image-6561\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA.jpg 1563w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA-293x300.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA-1000x1024.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA-768x786.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/AD_4nXeRBGxGTS6Dmw7VPF0Q2mkB3KJtVZohmB-QONZFkWjmmW1yAPnbss62yOnX6ycZlNDTMN1jwUi9gOvNzQaa1xC_epxM-QxnZNpReBCxAMpCU2JLm1LurIDDs0KY2SIE-vJsCe8yjA-1500x1536.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do You Need Help with Your VA Disability Claim?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Stone Rose Law our board-certified VA claims lawyers serve veterans nationwide with affordable, high-quality assistance for first-time claims, supplemental claims, and appeals of denied claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Stone Rose disability lawyer can help you prepare your initial claim, monitor your claim status and consult with you before disability examinations \u2014 <strong>all at no cost to you<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the VA denies your original claim, our VA benefits law firm will assign a VA disability appeals lawyer to help you pursue a VA appeal with the Board of Veterans Appeals while providing free representation on a contingency fee basis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means you won\u2019t pay your VA disability lawyer any fees unless we win your appeal and you receive benefits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information about how one of our VA disability lawyers can help you with your VA disability compensation claim or appeal, request a free assistance consultation at <strong>(480) 498-8998<\/strong>.Or, if you prefer, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneroselaw.com\/veteranslaw\/contact-us\/\">reach us online<\/a> to ask a question about veterans law, veterans disability benefits, or to set an appointment with one of our veterans lawyers for a free case evaluation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plantar fasciitis, also known as runners heel, neuritis, or painful sole syndrome, is the medical term describing what happens when tissue connecting your heel to your toes becomes inflamed.
