YANMPT. I have plantar fasciitis and I've been doing the prescribed stretches 3x/day, wearing shoes with support, etc., for almost a week. The recurring sharp pains in my arch and heel have transitioned into more regular dull pain, and I'm wondering if this is a positive sign. If you have recovered from PF, do you remember how your pain levels changed over time? How did the sensations change in your foot/feet? And how long did it take?
I'm doing calf stretches (gastroc and soleus), heel raises, grabbing a towel with my toes - 3x/day, and foam rolling my calves 1x/day. I'm trying to wear supportive shoes pretty much all day. I'm definitely feeling pain after I walk for a bit, but it's more of a consistent dull pain, when before I was doing physical therapy I would feel zero pain and then OUCH OUCH SHOOTING PAIN. I'm trying to tell if the change in pain is a sign of success. You are not my physical therapist! |
