Currently taking celebrex for tarsal tunnel and plantar fasciitis. had tts for 9 months. bottom of feet muscle are weak and atrophied. can pt help?

Yes if you haven't : There are a variety of physical measures that you can use. Physical therapy is one of the best things you can do in this setting especially since you've lost muscle. It would be better to start it before you lose muscle
