May 1, 201313 yr I had PF and like mcpapa I got some inserts and I haven't had any issues since. When I began working at Corning I bought some cheap steel toe boots and next thing you know I had PF in both feet. I went to the doctor and got inserts on his advice and bought some new boots as well. Now I just buy inserts with my boots everytime I buy new boots. My PF hurt when I walked. Rolling foot pins, Ibuprofen and an electric foot massager were great pain relief. I've never felt anything like it.

Last night was the first time I used a rolling pin on it, and the pain was excruciating. I would have kicked my own foot if I could have. :lol2: Did you get any specific type of insert?
May 1, 201313 yr A couple weeks ago, I got finished playing basketball. After I cooled down and took my shoes off, I had a terrible pain in my right foot. Made it really tough to walk. Didn't really think anything of it, and went to bed. The next morning the pain was still pretty bad, and didn't completely subside all day... The last few times I've played, the same thing has happened. Even when it hasn't been basketball, just being on my feet for long periods of time, I get the same pain. It runs on the inner half of my foot, from about the middle of my heel, to a little past halfway down my arch... Sometimes it feels like a muscle type pain, sometimes it doesn't. Excruciating pain sometimes. A couple different friends have said they think it sounds like plantar faciitis (sp?). They told me to freeze a bottle of water and roll my foot over that. It's supposed to loosen the tendon and provide pain relief. Well, while waiting for the bottle to freeze, I used a small baseball bat. That pain was the worst I have felt throughout the ordeal by far. So bad I could barely stand it. So what do you guys/girls think it is? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Old Age

I can't say because it's not in the "Controversial Issues" forum.

I bought my last set off of the boot truck that comes to our plant monthly.
