Can using a night splint be important in healing plantar fasciitis?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Maybe: A night splint is an option that is used by many patients, yet i wouldn't say that it is always important. There are more important treatments including daily active stretching and soft supportive shoe inserts. Cortisone injections are also popular.
