I developed a serious case of plantar 8 years ago, mainly in my left foot - especially after playing softball in cold weather without proper stretching. It was almost debilitating especially after a night in bed and standing up OMG!. Tried everything, inserts, shoes, stretches, rolling cold cans under the foot etc. Finally went to a Podiatrist, and he prescribed a shot into the heel (OMG!). I think it was prednisone and pain killer. The first shot helped but not totally. The second, a month later - viola'. No pain since---did the trick for me. I grimace just thinking about that horrible plantar pain. BTW the shot was not all that bad - really.

Was very pleased with Dr Nick and highly recommend>
