I suspect they relieve pain but don't actually do much to ease the inflammation. <br />Consultant also mentioned they are using Botox for treatment! The science is pretty good and besides even if it doesn't work your left with a really good looking foot!

Maybe it's pulling way from the heel!!! anyway she had a cortisone injection into the achills (the 2nd time) and that brought the swelling right down.<br /><br />Good luckcoach dionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464619260070895703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621172731232796768.post-8553069672407398702012-02-15T15:24:19.380+10:002012-02-15T15:24:19.380+10:00The 1st priority is to reduce the inflammation, co...The 1st priority is to reduce the inflammation, cortisone and voltaren 50mg work for me. The biggest mistake I made was complete rest, immobilising just made it worse. Get someone with good skills, not brutal, to release your calves esp FHL and peronneals and mobilise the joints in your foot, my 1st TMT and Talo Crural joints were completely stuck.Easy Tigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07004123010585186510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621172731232796768.post-31077231218698679102012-02-15T13:41:42.164+10:002012-02-15T13:41:42.164+10:00My doctor prescribed angina patches for my crook c...My doctor prescribed angina patches for my crook calf muscles.<br />Bloody waste of time and money.<br />Hope you get over the PF,it is a buggar to cure,expect it to recur rest of your career,sorry to say from my experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621172731232796768.post-66894655185814403472012-02-15T10:18:45.461+10:002012-02-15T10:18:45.461+10:00Good news Dave.

Blood platelet injection I think had some benefit but was bloody painful and you'll take 2 weeks to recover from it.<br /><br />Have you considered orthotics?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758183909765087339noreply@blogger.com
