He is right injection will mask the problem. You need to stretch out the pf. You will find those who work on concrete floors get it the worst, medical personnel is very high on the list. I get it one foot then the other. If you have a step put the balls of your feet on the step and drop your heals down. I do this every day for 15 minutes. Since most of us do not have steps I use a work out step. Have never had a injection (Drs I work with prefer not to inject unless it's the last resort) if I feel a new on set back to the step to stretch out the fascia
