Does anyone have plantar fasciitis? Any ideas how to make it go away?

I've been to the podiatrist, I got insoles from him. I ice it, I stretch and take Ibuprofin. It was better for a while but now it is right back to hurting. Any other ideas?

It does go away eventually on its own but can take 6 months. Good insoles are the answer. Go back to the podatrist and tell him the problem.
Reply:If you have access to a foot bath or whirlpool that would help. Also try some stretches such as moving your foot up and down ( as pressing a gas pedal), roll your foot over a 2 liter bottle, and toes raises ( lifting yourself up and down using your toes.
Reply:Plantar fasciitis is usually caused by excessive tension in the muscles that pull on the bottom of the foot across the heel, and the interconnecting fascia tissue.





Massage deeply into the calf muscles on the rear of your lower leg, looking for sore spots. You may have to work these for a few days, but the tension will eventually disappear, and the pain on your heel and bottom of the foot as well.





When you feel better, you can roll a golf ball under the arch of the foot as a preventive measure. Keep working the calf, too.
