Firstly, I just need to note that I didn't have any issues with my plantar fascia prior to a traumatic partial rupture from an ankle roll in I had at the start of the year. I've had other issues with the foot 18 months prior (posterior tibial tenosynovitis), and imaging I had before and after that showed a normal plantar. I was placed on three weeks of non weight bearing, followed by another 12 weeks part time cam boot (I'm a chef and my physio cleared me to work with rigid May be an image of bone, xray and text Shared post Vincent Hoffman I have been battling PF in both feet since around January 26’. Primary Dr. recommended Spenco inserts that worked for him. Said I’d be over it in a couple weeks. Got them in February. Provided little relief over the next few months. Got referred to a foot guy, wanted over $500 for leg brace/boot, more for inserts, and never sent me therapy information. Found a boot on Amazon for $35. Felt good for 30 minutes at a time, but seem Shared post Seth Zink I don't love going to doctors. They don't always listen, I have to use up sick time at work to go to appointments, I have to pay for the visits, etc. etc So, about 9 months ago I started chatting with Gemini (an a.i.). I told it my age, height, weight, etc and told it I wanted it to act as a podiatrist and physical therapist. I then described all my symptoms and asked for it to give me rehab exercises and stretches I could do to get b Shared post Cynthia Lubenow I've never had foot issues. After about a year of working at Chick Fil A my feet started hurting. I figured it was because I was using cheap Walmart shoes for the past year. I've recently heard it could be peri menopause. I'm 47. My heel hurts into my ankle. I also get radiating pain in my heel, ankle, balls of my feet and sometimes into my calf after a shift at work. I love working there and don't want to quit, but I'm scared it coul Shared post Rebecca Hilliard I’m hoping I don’t have to row back on this but I feel I’ve had a result….I’ve just spent 2+ weeks completely resting. And I mean really resting. I know I’m lucky to have the chance to do that but I’ve been able to do fewer than 500 steps a day. I did the strengthening exercises (plus some for hips/thighs) multiple times a day. I always had an arch support on when walking barefoot (big band of elastic with arch pad). Result: last 3 mo Shared post Kim Usher My lower back went a few weeks ago, probably from walking so funny because of my foot, so I was given some anti-inflammatory painkillers. I have breaks in between taking them, but just wanted to share that whenever they're in my system I don't feel a single niggle from my foot pain. I'm on naproxen and nefopam, no idea which one is helping but one of them is!

I had to stop work. I have had prp injection, shock wave treatment and cortisone. Nothing worked. I had a mri in march and then in July and there has been no change. As I am not working and have rested it. I can walk around house for a few hours to cook and house work. With no pain. But stil Shared post Pamela Lindeback Not sure who this may help but I’m putting it out there. I started swimming, slowly. It was the only thing I could do to not feel pain in moving. Then I started water aerobics in 4’ of water building an invigorating routine. I have worked up to deep water aerobics and my PF foot and joint pain elsewhere has reduced over 50%.
