That doesn't sound too much like plantar fascitis. I'm going through therapy right now for that. Most of my pain originates where the tendons meet the heal and the ball. That actually sounds more like the fascia is cramping. Both conditions can be alleviated by massage and stretching exercises. They've got me doing stretching right now that includes pulling the toes up, pulling my foot up, and stretching the calf. Doing a wall stretch by planting your offending foot flat on the floor about 3 feet away from the wall and then leaning forward keeping your leg straight should help stretch both the calf and plantar fascia. Also putting your toes against a wall just a little off the floor and then pushing down on your foot so the toes push up should help to stretch the plantar fascia.
I've felt that cramping spasm before when I land quickly on my foot or turn quickly. Stretching helped before. I've had the trouble now with fascitis because of my foot injury in March. That is improving though with tylenol or naproxin, and stretching.
