RE: OT - Plantar Fasciitis

I can relate but I don't have any suggestions to offer. Just like you I
had the same thing happen to me for about a year, finally figured out
what it was but by the time I got around to deciding I ought to go in
for it, the problem gradually faded away. I still don't know what
happened to fix it, but it's never reoccurred. Hopefully the exercises
you found will help you. You might try a few yoga exercises to stretch
your calf and other leg muscles too, they're easy to do at home and you
don't have to buy any equipment.

Yeah, really off topic, but...
Have any of you experienced this problem?  If so, what did you find was
the
best treatment?  Did you purchase any type of hardware - insole -
healpad?
There's so much on the internet that is "guaranteed" that I have  my
doubts.
Can't afford to waste money.  I don't want to see a doctor about it if I

don't have to.

I've been dealing with this for over a year now and only recently
discovered
what it was.  Some mornings I can barely walk until I get going for
awhile.
Or if I watch TV for a bit then try to get up to go to the kitchen, ow,
ow,
ow. Once I'm moving along I'm pretty much ok though.

I found some exercises I'll try, but wondered if anything purchasable
would
speed the healing.

Thanks for anything you can offer.
