A member asked:

I have advanced plantar fasciitis. what are the risks of corticosteroid injections?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Risk of injection: including possible tear of the planter fascia and local steroid injection flare exist. This risk is minimal if you minimize the number of injections given over time as well as applying ice over the region and resting or minimizing activities for a short duration.
