Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire plantar fasciitis home remedies

Looking for some relief. Been a bitch the last few days. Wearing shoes has always been uncomfortable for me. Boots with a lot of support have always been the most comfortable. Was thinking some CBD cream or blue emu.

Worn tennis ball rolled under the arch, repeatedly.

Stretching every day. Used a rolling pin under my foot and rolled it over the painful area while pushing down with my hands on my ankle. It seemed to break it up for me, but was pretty painful doing it.

^^^^^^^^^^ 30338 knows the drill......

Stay off of it as much as possible for a few days.

You can fix it.

For immediate relief kneel down sitting on your heels with toes pointed back and stretch arms foward like a muslim in prayer (there are no documented cases of a muslim with this condition)

Throw away any shoes with support and strengthen your feet, support causes the problem

Stretch three times per day

Pull your toes back and knead something along the bottom of the tendons

Stand on the edge of something like steps with the balls of your feet, feet at 45 degree angle, heels touching, drop the heel down below and then raise up high (calf raises) about 25 times a few times per day.

Long term,

You need to sleep with a “night brace” for about 4 months.

Ladder rungs for years killed mine. I got prescribed the boot thingy.

Short of that, I'd douse in Vegemite.

The brace, support, shots…all a pile of crap

Do what I posted and you are cured.

Rest your feet as much as possible. Time does wonders. Get to a real running shoe store and get fitted by a pro. Even if you don't run, lots of running shoes are great walking shoes. And shoes have come a long way.They fit like a glove and are extremely light now. I have 2 pairs of Brooks( I over pronate) and they are wonderful.

Oh I also put really good insoles in every pair of shoes and never walked barefoot around the house. Had a pair of socks made for wearing at night when sleeping. Those actually seemed to help as well.

Don’t rest, fix the problem.

Its similar to carpel tunnel syndrome but you calf and foot.

No case of carpel tunnel for active weight lifters either

Aint no fun but depends on your level of commitment.

About 10 years no PF


Did this for about 6 months

Thats bullchit man

You can cure it in less than two weeks

If you actually study the foot, you’d never wear support again

I have spent 40 to 60 hr/week on concrete floors for over forty years. Arches and Plantar Fasciitis became a recurring problem about ten years ago.

Dr told me the answer was stretches and specific exercises.

I skipped the Dr's instructions and bought much better boots with decent arch support a couple years ago. No problems since.

Slummy’s right. Dorsiflexion of the foot while you’re sleeping is tremendously helpful for plantar fasciitis.

Bullcrap

Single best cure I’ve witnessed from a guy who was in hell over it, really debilitated, - long walks, barefoot, on beach sand daily. Done. Cured.

God gave you that arch, and hard surface with bare feet make harder feet

... using this.

Bet your ass
