A member asked:

Pain when moving on feet in plantar fascia and tender in fasia with massage. is the darco body armor night splint a good splint? anyone better or not?

Ask your doctor: Night splints can be a useful adjunct in treating stubborn plantar fasciitis, and it has its place with other modalities such as antiinflammatories (oral and injected), stretching, foot orthoses, etc. Talk to your doctor what approach or combination of modalities will work best for you. The darco is as a good of quality device as most other medical "name brands".

Yes: Yes, it's a good one, but wearing a splint may take a while (the better ones just last longer due to stronger material). Good luck!

Good one: I believe it's a good one though some patients can't make it all night due to pain. A new one has come out that is adjustable. Consult your podiatrist.
