Fuggin feet doctors can’t cure it, but its easy

Everyone’s is different

See of doctor and professional eval


Mine were from standing on ladder rungs several hours a day. Or going up and down with 80lb bundle of GAF Elks

I wasn’t some sit on my ass shop rocket with stubby boo-boo toe. Or sore ankle from wing tips.

Two reason for arch support, when you parachute or way overweight

Cowboy boots, stretch, stretch and stretch some more.

Night splint and inserts help a lot.

Okay.

So, fix the foot and f u c k up the lumbar?

Goodluck fella.

one cortisone shot per heal 15 years ago fixed it. Plus arch supports when I run.

Slumlord - what’s a beach? Is that like where deflave lives? Or more like a hog-wallow in the shcitt next to mah crick?

This... And in my case it cleared up in a few days by leaving on all night every night.

Cortisone shots and custom arch supports worked for me too.

Now I can waddle from the couch to the fridge painlessly.

A high arch support in shoe.

Activity seems to make mine better. But movement. Not just standing all day. That makes it worse.

Suffered with that crap for 6 months. Did the frozen water bottle, stretching, even laser treatment. Went to a massage therapist who dug in there and stretched it all out. 3 sessions and it was 90% better. You will not inflict upon yourself the amount of pain needed to break up the adhesions in your foot.

Mine finally went away when I quit wearing jungle boots! I have a narrow foot, high arch. When I started skiing for a living I had some orthotics made! What a sweet feeling that was! Take care of those feet!

I’ve had 2 different bouts with it for the past several years.

Biggest help was getting 2 pairs of Brook’s torsion control shoes and I have a Powerstep Pro Tech insole in each.

I’ve had steroid injections, 2 different boots to wear over night, and doing stretching exercises.

My foot Dr said it’s because the tendon is inflamed - well stretching just seems to annoy it more imo.

So I quick stretching about 5-6 months ago and it’s gotten to 95% all on it’s own. Good luck.

I have had it. Went to a Dr. He gave me some sretches and exercises to do and said "Either do these till it gets well or come back and I will do some nasty painful things to your feet." i chose the first.

If you’re seeking immediate relief these work very well:

You have to put your full weight on it. It will hurt.

Long term you need to stretch as previously described and strengthen your feet. Stop wearing boots all the time. They create weak lower legs, ankles, and feet.

Put arch supports in all your shoes. Starting today. They don’t have to cost $600. Just buy the appropriate one for your feet. They’re usually $40-60 and will last a good while.

Roll your foot over a frozen bottle of water. Get some blue Birkenstock arch supports insoles for your boots. Use a towel and stretch the top of your foot back before you get out of bed. Put the towel over the ball of your foot and pull back for several minutes. Then get your foot in those boots with the insole as quick as you can. Try to do the frozen water bottle a couple times everyday. Worked for me. Good luck

buy good boots.

If it's really plantar fasciitis, and anything more than minor, you'll never get rid of until you heal the tearing of the muscle you do every morning when you stand up. I used A Strassburg Sock (http://store.thesock.com/TSSOS/Shop/THESOCK.html) as a more comfortable alternative to the full boot.

After a week or so of that then start in with the frozen water bottles and stretching and I suspect you'll fix it for good in 3 weeks or so. To maintain I use orthotics in all my shoes and boots as I have virtually no arch.

Went with this method and haven't had problems in some years after a decade of not understanding the root cause and things you have to do together to get rid of it and keep it gone.
