@@funglesblob hi Bob. It started in my teenage years and I didn't get rid of it until I was almost 40. I think it was a combination of Cortizone shots, wearing orthotics, stretching, and rolling cans or balls under my feet. I'm 47 now it's been gone for about seven years. I wish you the best! I hope you can get relief. It's awful
@@Michael28633 damn that sucks. I would suggest seeing a podiatrist and coming up with a strategy. Everyone seems to recommend different things. I battled it for decades it's incredibly painful I sympathize with you
Lovely that you answer most comments! I've been suffering with it for 9 months, it just got worse last weekend. Now I'm doing strengthening and stretching but might need to find a PT😢 Thanks for the video!
Try to. The YT Studio app only shows initial comments and not replies to replies so I do miss some. You’re welcome and good luck to you. This can be a stubborn issue to resolve so glad you’re seeking professional help!
I didn't even know plantar fasciitis was a thing! Thank🙏🏾 God 🙏🏾 for the Internet nowadays instead of when it FIRST went online! & Thank 🙏🏾 God 🙏🏾 for great human beings for putting out truthful informative information! I'm GRATEFUL! Everyone stay blessed & I love YOU ALL!!
Same I literally thought when you get in your 50s and 60s you may get some bone disease but oh my God this pain is excruciating. I’m trying to find some release online some kind of treatment.
Aameen Been suffering from Plantur fascitis I've ordered some special socks and prescribed some ibuprofen creams InshaAllah May Everyone here feel Better Ameen
Shits trash. You’ll never lose that pain that way. I used to safer for years with this shit. Got my self a shoulder massager and used it at home on my calves. And accidentally healed my self with a shoulder massager. I aim at my calve with it and in 30-60 seconds I healed my pain. Forever. Been 7 years I haven’t felt this pain anymore. Thank me later ❤
@@riddleniss what’s trash? So you used a massager for 20-30 minutes a day? Also, which tip on the massager did you use? A thinker tip or thinner? Thanks! It does help but I do a few minutes several times a day. Thanks!
Or was it time and the natural healing process? Or maybe a combo of things? Im glad that worked for you, Ken. However, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Taping can actually make some patient’s conditions worse.
@@Ash-zx2eu No … I had two separate bouts of it … once in each foot… One other thing I did and still do… From the moment o get out of bed .. to bed time.. I always have slip/have shoes/work boots on always supporting my arches…even if I use the restroom in the middle of the night..
@@Ash-zx2euI had it in my left foot very bad took forever to heal. Good support shoes, rolled a frozen bottle of water under my foot to bring down the inflammation ,also a podiatrist made some shoe inserts. The second time I had it in my right heal. I sat up with my legs on the sofa, and dug my left big toe into my right heal. Hurt really bad at first , but it went very quick.
Its a tough condition. I would def see someone for it rather than just let it heal in its own - ive dealt with it myself. Also, medical intervention is not a bad idea. Steroid injections can work wonders for stubborn PF that does. It respond to conservative care.
@@Kyharra why would you say that? It's been around for thousands of years. But big Pharma finances research in universities and doctors and insurance companies to push drugs on us, and you trust your entire health on fiscal gains?
I just went to orthopedic doctor yesterday. The PA was examining me feet & pushed too hard on my arch area & I literally banged my head on the wall behind me because it hurt so bad! Dx w bilateral plantar fasciitis I also have fibromyalgia. I'm SO TIRED of every day pain.
In my 30s and on my 3rd tendon tear. Done 4 PT rounds. 1 was even unconventional therapy like cryotherapy and laser. I have the best gym shoes and orthoics all checked off by PT and orthopedic doctors. The tearing was from too many cortisone shots because i was literally crawling. No one told me the shots can lead to full tendon reptures and 80% of my fascia tore. Back at PT for the opposite foot that has a tear. But i havent had any shots for over a year and will never again. Not sure how the left foot went as i cant run, havent been able to exercise because as i suffer with a neuro disease i was about to go back to the gym after a year for total weight training but my left foot out of nowhere has a tear. I feel like i literally live at physical therapy and i do all the exercises at home. I do not know how it will ever get fixed. Randomly came on in 2023. Only my heels hurt from small bone spurs. Doesnt explain why im still having tendon tears
I'm suffering Plantar fascitis in my right foot. It has bothered me for more than a couple of months now and I'm still unable to walk normally. I limp most of the time, and my gait looks very awkward to onlookers. I feel pain when wearing any kind of footwear, be it soft ones, hard ones, medicated foam slippers, etc. I'm at my wit's end about what to do about it.
Freeze a bottle of water . Put a towel on the floor and rub your foot over the top it will bring down the inflammation. I had this very bad so I understand how it feels.
For those that don't know, PF pain can be worse than slamming you little toe into the bed frame in the middle of the night. It can go away after a while, then come back with a vengeance. This therapy looks amazing.
I am in the military and i got this while on a patrol duty last year February...i took it too light but now it made me almost a weakling in my team,i cannot participate in any training or do any activities..I am on medical leave,this is horrible...And wearing combat boots and running on terrain with my load and weapon ,i just didn't even know how i survived... Btw can we do these exercises alone or do we need someone to assist us????
That’s brutal. Sorry to hear. I had a 6-month bout of plantar fasciitis and it can be debilitating. This is a treatment we perform in office but you can try to mimic it with the handle of a butter knife and lotion. I show this in our latest long-form video on “pickle elbow.”
Feeling your excruciating pain. It’s unbearable. In other videos I’ve learned Some techniques I can do on my own, it’s helping. So sorry for what it going through. Best of luck. Stretch
Things I noticed about this kind of foot pain: I started a job where I sit most of the day and my fascitis got worse. I'm really bad at taking breaks, so that's my bad. I stopped stretching daily and that made it waaay worse, plus I started feeling my sciatica acting up. Massaging where he is scraping with a massage gun on the lowest setting (slow but hard) feels REALLY good and helps alleviate the pain in my piriformis. I guess it's connected or something... I went back to the gym and stretching my calves/hammies is already helping a ton. Driving triggers the pain in my butt all the way down to my foot. I wear barefoot shoes, but I think I need an insert for the arch because my feet tend to supinate when they hurt a lot (mornings).
The behavior you described sounds like your sciatic symptoms are extending down to your foot, mimicking plantar fasciitis. Not true plantar fasciitis. Get it properly assessed and treated. Goto the “find a provider” section of this website: www.mckenzieinstituteusa.org/
You have to wear good support shoes. No walking around bare foot. Fill a bottle with water freeze it place it on the floor under a towel rub your foot over the top. Brings down the inflammation.
The easy fix - lay on your bed tummy down and your ankles over the end of the bed then flex your ankles to push your big toe into the mattress - do about 50 times at night and another 50 in the morning and within days the pain is gone - repeat daily and the pain never returns
Look for one near you that promotes they do “rehab,” exercise-based, and do other treatment modalities than just adjustments. They typically market toward active mindset population. Take a look at our website and it should give you that type of feel. reachchiro.com
Hey I currently have it in my left foot and been using a lacrosse ball to ease tension. It started becoming more prevalent after my ankle/ligament injury back in July cause by a sports injury. Currently I feel it when my shoes are too tight and after my runs. I love running and this has affected my ability to run often. Do you have any advice? I also go to a regular chiropractor every week.
I would be suspect that it’s stemming from your ankle. Is that ankle stiffer than the other, i.e., less range of motion than before the injury? Does your chiro adjust your ankles or give you a home exercise for them? If not I would find a McKenzie Method clinician near you. Do a clinician search at www.mckenzieinstituteusa.org/
It depends. Scar tissue is not always painful. Sometimes it has to do with how your mechanics are affected as a result of the injury that caused scar tissue formation. Unfortunately, it’s specific to the person so I can give you a straight answer. Also, most podiatrists look at only the feet. See a movement specialist. We’re chiropractors and we treat foot issues where podiatry did not work.
It's weird the chain effect evertything has, i can feel my right talus is out of place (can feel its not the same on both sides at least) and surprise surprise that's the foot having plantar fasciitis and a forming bunion...
Calf stretch plz try for cure 🙏🙏 Put both hand on wall . One foot wih bent knee(ankle angle 90) The other foot put back (no knee bend) at ankle the foot and shin angle wil be like 45 degree . 30 sec 30 sec 30 sec Or 1 mim 1 min 1 min each leg 3 set . Morning afternoon and night
What’s the address cause I’m 50% for plantar fasciitis as a veteran!!! The pain is ridiculous!!! ALL DAY! Walking is a simple joy that I no longer enjoy! 😢
Everyone speaks of treatment and relief. How about the cure? If someone who has no history of foot issues or any injuries, developed this from due to stress caused by a bad pair of shoes, how can this be resolved permanently? I'm using a theragun, stretches, foot massage, marine collagen supplement, diclofenac sodium topical gel, and orthotics.
Musculoskeletal pain is not a disease so there is no “cure”. Its about figuring put how to reduce the tension causing the pain and maintaining balance. Was it a bad pair of shoes, or a weak and unstable foot? Or maybe too much stress on the tissues? It’s likely multifactorial. Ultimately, the tissues need to heal, and the foot and other structures that support the foot need to be stabilized. How to do that depends on the individual based on an expert’s assessment. That’s why clinicians exist.
True but slippery slope. Insoles are like crutches. The more you use them the more your feet become deconditioned (weak). As that perpetuates, you will likely get to the point where you can’t tolerate being barefoot. Thus you rely on cushy shoes to function. This behavior likely leads to other issues that are not worth it and quite preventable.
@jfros9794 Love barefoot shoes but the caveat is you have to slowly build up tolerance to using them. If wearing barefoot shoes is an 8th grade level and your feet are at a 2nd grade level, they won’t be able to handle the load, proverbially speaking.
@steph7115 To be specific depends on the person, but in general, I recommend shoes with wide toe boxes (most are too narrow), and spending more time barefoot, especially around the house. If you cant handle wood floors, lightly supported slippers is a good start. Walking barefoot in grass is phenomenal as the surface has give and the texture of the ground wakes up all the small muscles in the foot. The foot is meant to move dynamically. Always wearing super cushy shoes cause loss of ability due to lack of need.
Wear good shoes , and get inserts. Freeze a water bottle , put a towel on the floor and keep rubbing your foot over the top it will bring down the inflammation. A tennis ball can help too in the same way.
Can u tell me please which department will be good for P.F ? I have serious pain in my toes while walking, I want to consult with a doctor. Pls tell me the doctor department??
Never Crocs 😅. It depends on your level of foot function. Walking barefoot at home is great but some people can only tolerate it for so long. Even with barefoot/minimalist shoes, I always recommend you start with a small amount you know you can handle. Then keep doing a little bit more every day, every week. Building up foot function and capacity is like running a marathon - gotta be take your time, be consistent, and can’t sprint it at any point. Good luck!
@@Reachrehabchiro Thank you I've been suffering from plantar fasciitis for a year and a half now, I've taken too many anti-inflammatory drugs and none of them helped, not even a bit.
@@ReachrehabchiroThat’s interesting. My foot doctor said I shouldn’t walk barefoot. Do crocs as my household shoe. I’ve done barefoot in my home since I was a kid. My pain comes and goes. Stretching before getting out of bed decreases my pain.
Hey. I started getting PF winter of 2022, it was painfully but I could walk and do usual activities but this winter it is severe right now at the moment I am typing this comment with tears in my eyes, it has almost been a week and now I literally cannot walk not even walk I cannot even stand!!!! Please suggest some home remedies exercises or anything. I am starting of giving up on myself. I cannot bear this pain anymore. Please help me out. I cannot even go for my daily needs, washroom or anything. It is difficult to even walk to a person’s support. Please notice my comment. It is a request.
Freeze a bottle of water roll your foot over the top it will bring down the inflammation. But wrap the bottle in a towel so you don’t get freezer burn. Hope this helps.
@karenimran3349 Appreciate you wanting to help, but the frozen water bottle strategy will only temporarily reduce symptoms - does not address why it’s happening. They mentioned since 2022 so this is a chronic problem, not a one-off situation.
Did you do any physical therapy or rehab exercises along with the injections? Injections can help with the pain but it doesn’t solve the underlying reason the problem is there. It’s just like taking advil or aleve, short term symptom reduction.
@@Reachrehabchiro honestly no :( and I stopped working out legs this week I’m trying to prevent from getting worse but now I did started doing stretching exercises and using a frozen water bottle to roll on to for 15 min thankfully it started going down :) but I’ll u think I should stop working out legs for a while??
@@mariorodriguez5723I do the frozen bottle trick too. Rest doesn't help it all. I can barely walk after 8 hours of sleep. Look up "2 stretches to heal plantar fasciitis" here on yt. I'm on day 4 and feel 75% better
I had pain in my heal , I use to lay down and dig my other big toe into the heal, and kept moving my bad foot in a circular motion. It hurt like anything to begin with. But eventually it went.
Get a empty bottle fill it with water freeze it, then roll you bad foot over the top. That will bring down the inflammation. Wear good support shoes. I also got orthotics to go in my boots made up from a podiatrist. PF is a very painful condition it hurts to just put your foot to the floor. I have a Morton’s neuroma also , and that too is painful.
Maybe I have that , idk. When ever I'm just about to fall asleep I get severe cramps in my soles. Happens at least 10 times a night. So o wake up everytime 💀 gotta stomp my feet around to make it stop
Roll a tennis ball or fill a bottle with water freeze it, roll it under your foot. I had plantar fasciitis the iced water bottle brought down the swelling.
That mid area hurts so bad on my left foot. Ive pulled my toes back to stretch it and using a tool to massage it and I’m dying 😢. That area is just so tender I even tried rolling it on a ball and my GOD help me. I’ve had this for a while but it comes and goes. So far it’s been consistent for almost a month and I’m worried it’s gotten worse
Im sorry to hear and would 100% recommend seeing a professional for this. In the meantime, get some basic shoe inserts and wear supportive shoes to take the edge off with daily activities. Hang in there!
❤New Balance 600 series tennis shoe works great totally healed my foot....they were 60.00 a few yrs ago but they work...a nurse told me about them...make sure in the 600 series❤hey everybody please ask Jesus into your heart today while you still have time ❤
