Every Woman's Guide to Foot Pain Relief: The New Science of Healthy Feet | 
So got the news about my xray of my foot. It showed normal. So the doctor is going to try giving me steroids becuz he thinks it is.... Plantar Fasciitis. He wants to do an MRI on my foot but for the insurance we need to rule things out first. So I am trying to remain calm and take deep breaths. It is looking that i will have to do a lifestyle adjustment when it comes to walking. Fun Fun Fun. I know things could be worse, but it still sucks.

Brooke_H I had plantar f! It took about 9 months, but it did go away completely. Good luck! 4y
brittanyreads If it's plantar, do a heel drop stretch on a step. It's been doing wonders for mine. I saw a massage therapist and chiropractor who both recommended that stretch. I'm back to running on it fine after doing that twice a day for about 30secs each time. Wishing you a quick heal! 4y

AkashaVampie @Brooke_H what did u do to get rid of it? I was just looking up braces to wear... maybe it will help. 4y
AkashaVampie @BrittanyReads thanks sweetie. I will look into trying some stretching. 4y
brittanyreads It's tedious, but consistency is key. Hope it helps 🙂 4y
AkashaVampie @BrittanyReads thanks 😁 4y
Brooke_H @AkashaVampie I did self massage and exercises every day. Just google how to do those. I also got some shoe inserts my dr recommended...but I do NOT recommend those. They did not help. I also didn‘t do any high impact exercise until it was gone. 4y
Texreader Yes that can be so so painful! We went to England while I had plantar fasciitis and let me tell you, walking London was hard as heck. But the good news is if you see the right dr it will heal. 4y
sgoffe @Brooke_H Mine took about 9 months to clear up as well and I had to be really diligent about the stretching & exercises my PT gave me. I haven't had a re-occurrence, but I really need to get back in the habit of doing those stretches! 4y
EmilyM I am on my feet all day and had Plantar Fasciitis really bad. I can only wear Dansko shoes. They are expensive but so worth it! 4y
Sungirl79 I just got diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. Today I am having a big flare up. It is no fun at all!! 4y
alisiakae I've had a few Plantar fasciitis flare ups over the years. It does go away eventually, but certain things can trigger it (warrior pose in yoga being one of them 😩). Patience and daily stretches are what eventually helped. Now, every time I run or go on long walks/hikes, I make sure to do specific stretches beforehand. 4y
AkashaVampie @4thhouseontheleft yeah I think that's what made mine start... i went on a long long walk with the family and I'm not physically fit, so messed up my foot. 4y
