Yes it sucked. Roller when I sat and went to an ortho and got some good heel inserts. Mine was from playing ball in my driveway with old tennis shoes I believe.
I went to foot guy today. Cortisone shot and a list of foot exercises to do. The list consisted of seven different exercises. I’m
supposed to rotate three of the seven tests daily. All the exercises are supposed to be 10 reps on each foot three times a day.
Seems like a lot...

Got the shot. Did some stretches. Pretty much live with it.

Moving my foot some before I get out of bed has become 2nd nature at this point.
Sitting still for long periods and driving is the worst.
Scared my old ball team once. Never told them I suffer with it. Drive 4 hours to a tournament one day. They see me get out of the car and I can't really walk lol

Jeez!! That sucks!! I thought this was just some kind of tendon pull that ran it’s course and then got better.Quote:

Here’s my plantar fasciitis story. Had it in my right foot for about 6 months. Got insoles then shoes that were supposed to help, etc. to no avail. One day I noticed after having been off work for a couple of days and just wearing crocs that it actually felt a little better. Well I can’t wear Crocs at work but I did start wearing shoes with very little arch support and after two weeks it was noticeably better and after a month was probably 95% gone.
I still have a pair of Brooks I wear on the treadmill but I got rid of everything else “running shoe” style. I’m convinced that at least in my case, my feet would prefer to be barefoot.
I think it was Joe Crawford who played most of his last season with plantar fasciitis. I can't imagine the pain of all the starting, stopping and quick cuts during practices and game play.
Probably not as bad as you would think. Once it loosens it up it is fine for a while (mine at least). The hardest thing was probably sitting on the bench and half time. Occasionally an impact will hurt, but normally the pain comes from tightening up from sitting still. I would imagine he kept it stretched out during time outs and sitting on the bench.Quote:

^Yes, now I remember them talking about that.
Rest and stretching is about all you can do outside of the exercises. I did buy some form fitting Saucony Shoes and they were a tremendous help. Be sure to use the lace locks.
