A doctor has provided 1 answer

See doctor first: For plantar fascia pain or other related symptoms in the arch of the foot, if a patient feels he is not getting better after seeing his doctor, he may consider getting an opinion from a podiatrist, sports medicine doctor, or orthopedic ankle-foot doctor. Treatment may include anti-inflammatories, changing shoes and orthotic inserts, special taping, physical therapy, modifying sports activities.
