Planter facitis (heel pain) as doctor says from last six month. taken streoid injectin but still not well.?

Question:

pls help.

Answers:
Plantar fasciitis is that pain in the bottom of your foot that especially hurts first thing in the morning when you try to get out of bed and stand on it, or after sitting for awhile.
It is caused by wounding the tough fascia connective tissue on the bottom of your foot. This band runs from your heel to the ball of your foot. It supports your arch and it transmits your weight across the bottom of the foot with each step you take.

If the plantar fascia gets bruised or over-stretched, the inflammation causes the heel and foot pain. It can also get partially detached from the heel and a calcium deposit can form - a heel spur.

Causes
1. Over-pronation: Excessive rolling of your foot and ankle with each step. This can be corrected by wearing motion control running shoes or orthotics.

Cure Plantar Pain Fast

Wearing old shoes: Shoes lose their support and cushioning after 500 miles. If your shoes are a year old and you wear them regularly, they are dead. Get rid of them or you risk injury.
3. Overstriding: taking too long of step in front of your body can also contribute to tight calves and plantar fasciitis.
Treatment
1. Rest: Once you have plantar fasciitis, you should back off of your walking distance and not walk or run through the pain.
2. Icing: Use an ice pack on the foot for 15 minutes after walking.
3. Self-Massage: Massage the foot before getting out of bed in the morning. Use long strokes from the ball down to the heel.
4. Night splint: This device holds your foot flexed at night so that the plantar fascia doesn't tighten up and cause that horrible pain as you stretch it first thing in the morning, which can in fact re-injure it.

Stretches
Once the pain and swelling have begun to subside, perform these static stretches three times a day. Continue to use this stretch to prevent recurrence of plantar fasciitis and heel spur.

I have it too. Here are a few hints to help you with the pain.
l..Use ice at night. While you are watching tv or sitting down reading etc.
put an ice pack on the sore area. Leave it on as long as you can take
the pain. It will hurt. The ice will help so it is worth it.

2. Massage the sore area, pressing firmly. It will hurt again, but be worth
it.

3. Buy a Dr. Scholl's insert for the heel area. Wear it always.

4. When you wake up put on shoes with support and the aforementioned
gel insert. Do not go barefoot, ever.

5. Discontinue walking for long stretches. Bike instead

6. Exercise foot by stretching toes out and curling under. This will
strengthen the muscle.

The body takes time to heal(heel get it). Have faith. One day at a time.
