Plantar Fasciitis is a cause of pain under the heel. It usually goes in time. Treatment may speed up recovery. Treatment includes rest, good footwear, heel pads, painkillers and exercises. A steroid injection or other treatments may be used in more severe cases.
However in most cases exercises can and will help.
You need to concentrate on stretching the toes toward the foot, or holding the foot in a contracted position over night to help.
That is way I have purchased a "brace" which holds the foot in a position to help the healing process.
Not for me but for my brother Mike who has this condition for about 9 months, I will let you know how he gets on when it has been delivered.
Yes I purchased it and no I am not connected in any way to the supplier!
Just trying to help!
1st March 2017, Well Mike has been using the boot off and on in the last 2 weeks and with the exercises as well to stretch the Toes back towards the legs using a towel has managed to play 4 sets of doubles today with the heal area only a little sore.
So perhaps we are heading in the right direction, only time will tell!
