What can i do for plantar fasciitis? would a night splint help? it is very painful, pain medication and anti-inflammatories do not help in any way.

Plantar fasciitis : You have a difficult diagnosis to treat. That being said the doctor has to consider a plan that both of you can agree with. Everything from custom orthotics to splinting and physical therapy to surgery are all possible treatments. You need to go to see a podiatrist or an MD or DO whom work with this diagnosis.
