I'm in such horrendous pain both day and night with a throbbing foot. I've had 2 injections in my right foot over the last year and has worked well but it's come back alot sooner this time and I'm not allowed another injection yet. I'm on pain killers and strapping my foot daily with no positive change. I'm at my wits end doing exercises daily and pointless going to the docs. Any helpers???

    Have you noticed any numbness or tingling around the outside back of your heels and your heels? That's my issues. I've had it for 2 weeks. Upon waking up I have tight cramping heels and when I stretch my feet back I can feel it pull my heels and the muscles have been tense. If I'm on my feet too much or after 2 hours I'm in so much pain and discomfort.

    I have had pf for years and I keep one pair of shoes that is almot a half size larger so my feet are not crammed into the shoe. I wear them only if I have to. I keep thick socks on my feet and I keep an ice pack on them and I go to bed with an ice pack. I take tylenol every four hours if I need it. I also do exercises. I bend foot down and back up several times a day. This is how I get through mine. It takes a while for them to get better.
