Painful heel(plantar facillitis)?
I had platar for years! The only thing I learned that helped was orthotics and stretch your calve muscle by leaving both your feet on the ground and push your body forward on like a door or a wall, make sure to keep your feet planted on the ground, after awhile it will help more. Plantar in my case was caused by my calve muscle being to tight, and that muscle runs under or over your heel to the top of your foot. You should be able to sit down and stretch your foot towards you and feel the band on the cove in your foot, THAT band needs to be stretched, OFTEN! Hope this helps.
Reply:I have had plantar faciitis for a few years now. I have to wear custom made orthotics in my shoes. Because of the orthotics, I have no more pain, but boy did I. You will most likely need to go to a Podiatrist (foot doc) to have them take a mold of your foot and have them made for you. They cost me $260.00, but soooooo worth it. Go to the dr.!!!
Reply:KMS is right about the stretching it. i have plantar for many years now and stretching is the most helpfull and cortisone shot in your heel to reduce inflamation.getting out of bed in the morning and trying to walk is the most painfull.do the stretches for about 2-3 days and you will notice relief bigtime!! good luck
Reply:Freeze a couple water bottles and roll your foot over them several times a day. This has given relief to many of my massage clients.
