A couple of months ago doctors said I had plantar faciitis. He did an injection which helped. The pain is back and was told if it was a reoccurring problem to see a foot doctor. Everything I have read about plantar faciitis doesn't describe what…Continue

So I have been dealing with heel pain for about 7 months now. Did 6 weeks of physical therapy, cortizone shots and night splints. Nothing seemed to be helping. I decided to go to a new doctor to get a second opinion about everything. I know I had or still have plantar faciitis since I had an MRI. When I went to new dr he seems to think I also have tarsal tunnel. I had a positive tinels sign. So now I am going to have a nerve study done on my tibial nerve. He was telling me one could…See More
Katherine replied to Lisa Morris's discussion Plantar Faciitis"I have the same thing. I have been struggling with mine for 2 years now. The only things that has worked for me is getting my foot massaged once a week and soaking my foot in Epsom salt."
Sarah Moulton replied to Sarah Moulton's discussion 7 months post op and still extreme pain. Help!"Went to the pain clinic today. The Dr thinks the Dr that did my surgery may have caused some nerve damage. He gave me plenty of pain medicine and I'm going back next week for a nerve test and possibly get a shot in the inner ankle. I really…"

A couple of months ago doctors said I had plantar faciitis. He did an injection which helped. The pain is back and was told if it was a reoccurring problem to see a foot doctor. Everything I have read about plantar faciitis doesn't describe what symptoms I have. I mainly have pain when I put weight on my foot, sometimes when I move the foot a certain way. It does not hurt in the morning. It hurts the more I am on it and the more I go bare foot. Crocs really help lower the pain, other…See More
Bamboo Ilana replied to Eleanor Ross's discussion I have tried injections, physical therapy, and acupuncture."I agree with Liz. healing PF requires a good look at how your body is moving and functioning. HOw is it compensating? A lot of pain comes from injuries sustained earlier that have been forgotten over time. The connective tissue…"

Lisa posted a discussionInternal Stitches Issue 2 Months Post Op
I am nearly 2 months post op and have begun to have issues with the internal stitches not dissolving, but rather working their way to the surface. I have had 2 removed by my podiatrist (a painful procedure!). I have been soaking in a betadine solution two times a day which, my podiatrist said, may help the others to work their way to the surface. Additionally, the scar tissue on the incision is building up and it feels as though I am walking on a large marble. And so, I ask myself.... was…See More
