Commonly, patients are engaging in home remedies that a practitioner or a friend may have informed them of, or that they have learned about on line. Some of these common remedies add stress to the heel and irritate the condition, even if they provide short-term relief, meaning the condition persists.
Your sports podiatrist will advise you which treatments are appropriate for your condition.
Podiatrists are able to determine the cause of your foot pain and foot type, make allowances for any medical conditions you have, and provide recommendations on the best shoes for you to wear.
