A member asked:
I had a 5mm tear on my plantar fascia and also had chronic heel pain. i decided to go with tenex procedure and had it done. did i make a good choice?

Plantar fasciitis: We usually don't start with something like the Tenex procedure for plantar fasciitis. Typical standard of care treatments should first include shoe modification, stretching exercises, orthotics, pain medication, injections, taping. If all fail, then other forms of treatment modalities can then be utilized.
