A member asked:

What do you suggest if my heel hurts for days how do i care for it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Plantar Fasciitis: I would suggest stretching exercises with a belt, towel or resistance band around the ball of your foot pulling towards yourself. Also, rolling your foot over a frozen water bottle for 10 minutes helps (with socks on)
