9. Plantar Fasciitis (and other foot soreness)
Plantar Fasciitis, which is a shooting pain that radiates around your heels due to tissue inflammation, can be extremely painful and very difficult to ignore. Though it typically occurs in the morning, it can crop up due to obesity, jobs that involve a lot of standing or walking, and even some kinds of exercise.
On top of that, there are countless types of foot soreness that may occur due to sciatica, as that condition affects even your feet and toes. As such, many types of foot pain are forms of sciatic nerve pain. This can happen due to bad footwear or long periods of standing. Worse still, Plantar Fasciitis and foot pain can contribute to pain in the upper back!
