A member asked:
I have bilateral plantar fasciitis and chronic pain of right ankle due to some injuries. can i take dance lessons (salsa, tango, swing..) &go dancing?

Not wise: The plantar fasciitis is unlikely to heal with an activity such as dancing. I would suggest you consult with a physician to discuss treatment options for you, so that you can see improvement and then eventually get back to dancing. Although you probably could push through the discomfort, your condition can not heal without a period of rest from stress on the fascia.
