While I have heard they are effective, it would be nice if they weren't so expensive. Has anyone had them in TV and if so what did they charge you?

Anyone try anything else that worked?
I went to a foot doctor and had a steroid injection. I had to rest my foot for 4 weeks. Pain was mostly gone but still there. I recently bought this recommended item from Amazon and after only about a minute of use, the pain goes completely away for a while. At this rate, I think the pain will completely resolve. I know you can overdo this, so I’m cautious about using it for too long each time. BESKAR Foot Massager Roller for... Amazon.com
I also do the hanging heels stretch after walking as instructed by the foot doctor.
