Plantar Fasciitis!

oh my gosh, i just got over it, massage ur foot, don't walk on it unless necessary, wear slippers, they help!! take pain killers!

Very painfull!! Ouch...

Oh dear you do have my sympathy caramello. This condition is thought to be linked to being overweight, walking on hard surfaces, wearing shoes with little or no arch support, and inactivity. It can result in a heel spur on the calcaneus, although it is not the spur itself which produces the pain. The Doctor recommended that I avoided open-back shoes, sandals, and thongs/flip-flops. Of course he also said I should lose weight but you know how these things go - not well. LOL In the end, I had a local injection of some sort of cortisone/steroid which gave me permanent relief but apparently does not work for everyone. It was very painful once the local anesthetic wore off, but despite that I am pleased that I did have it done and have now been pain free for 2 years. Now fingers are crossed.

I have not, I'm sorry. But perhaps the pharmist can suggest something for you to use to help. Otherwise, you will have to see a doctor and get treated. Since this is a month old since you posted it, how are you feeling now?

This is quite a painful thing to experience. I have had it in the past and didn't do anything about it. I was afraid that my doctor would say it was due to my weight. Later on while employed for a medical company I found that what helps is splinting the foot so it is in a neutral position. Also wearing rigid arch supports in your shoes is helpful. You can buy the splints online. They are called Night Splints. Some insurances will pay for them with a prescription from a physician. Check it out. good luck!
