[NPInfo] Plantar Fasciitis

[Dena]

Actually, I thought Birkenstocks (which is all I wear) made my feet much
worse due to the fact that the footbed was so hard without any cushioning. I
felt much better wearing my cozy, comfy, cushy house-slippers <G>.

We have discussed this before.  Someone had recommended Birkenstock shoes
and they really work.  I now recommend them to my patients.

Another inexpensive alternative we recommend is a can of frozen juice to  
roll the foot over. Benefits of icing as well.

If it  hasn't already been tried, the PTs at work recommend rolling the foot
over  a tennis ball to adequately stretch out the fascia. I wish my MD  and
podiatrists had told me THAT simple and inexpensive tip the 3 times  I
suffered from months of plantar fasciitis!
