Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Get examined: Your history suggests either a tear of your plantar fascia or Achilles' tendon .An examination by an orthopedic surgeon would easily differentiate the two. Other injuries ( 5 th metatarsal fractures, for instance)should be ruled out as well. Best of Luck!
