Do alot of yall only have pain in the heel?

All my pain was in the heel. Start wearing brooks and you will notice your pain not being as bad! I use to get heel injections religiously. Since wearing brooks, I haven’t had an injection in over a year.

Outside of my foot now.

Yes

Mine pain is in my heel only as well !X-ray showed heel bone spurs in both heels ! Custom Inserts ordered by doctor do not help!

Mines only in my arch

Yes

I do found out it was a heel spur.

Mine is mostly in my heel and metarsal area

Yes. Started front of heal and then went to back more on one side

These insoles will give you your life back !

My pain is in my heel

Yes. Thats the only place I had pain

Only in my heel.

Mine is only in the heal

Mine only in the heel never the arch

Heel, and the side of my foot, if I touch it . Been using a tennis ball, got it in my bag . So I can can remember, to use it

Mine started in both the heel and arch but as it has slowly improved, it moved to only the heel. I’ve read that’s the last place to heal.

Heel snd calf

Heel only

Mines in my arch

Mine started in the heel after wearing hard soles for a week to work. I could feel a ‘bump’ when I massaged it. It was a heel spur. Mine became inflamed. Do not get orthotics or shockwave. The consultant told me mine could take 2 years to go! I followed Dr A protocol and it took me 5 months of consistently doing the exercises. I still do them as I wear HOKA shoes they are not that flexible so I don’t want it coming back!

Yer always heel not arch

That's the only place I have pain. It's like a band around my heel almost. I stretch my calf, rub my heel on the floor when I'm just sitting in a chair and I wear a compression ankle/heel sock everyday. I never go without shoes or slippers either. These things are the only things that save me when the pain is strong.

mines in my arch only

Heel only

Mine is only in the left heel. Started to wear croc at home and brooks at outdoor. Pain was reduce slowly.

I think the heel is the most painful part for most people. If I rub my arch there's definitely tender areas but I think you tend not to feel that part hurting when you're actually walking

I was like that xx

Heel pain mostly thereafter the left side of my calves.

Is it a bone spur?

Mine was in heel. I had my gastrocnemius muscles released and I've got better flexibility but still lots of pain. I've just bought these from Amazon and second day they are helping. Maybe worth a try

That's exactly what I'm dealing with. I had surgery 12/16 and still having trouble out of that foot, but the pain is worse now. I do wear kuru shift shoes at work which makes it better to walk for long periods but after about 2 hours I HAVE to sit down. I can't wear anything except kuru shift shoes or else after 10 minutes I'm in excruciating pain.

I don’t have any pain in the heel. I just have it in the middle of the foot.

Heel but the past month I feel it in the arch sometimes. 18 months in

Kuru has some heel loving technology. These have been a game changer for me. I used to not have the confidence to walk to the back of the grocery store for fear I’d have to literally crawl back on my belly ~ grateful https://prz.io/mgyGlqLT8

Mine has moved from my arch into the back of the heel & just under in that area. Absolute agony, it burns. More painful than under arch. Really need to make another apt to see if it’s something different

Get a different PT:)

Mine is heel only. Inner edge. My MRI showed severe Plantar fasciitis.

Yep but a couple of days ago i felt a little pain in the calve area but only that one day

Oh, boy. Classic pf has a pain in the heel, why does your PT person think it's not. You can also have pain in other areas. I wish I found dr. Angela walks pf protocol before I ever went to 2 useless podiatrist and 1 orthopedic Dr, and received open plantar fasciotomy with PRP injections that I would have never got if I found her information first. Look her up, you might not be ready for a lot of her foot strengthening exercises yet this soon after your surgery. Probably starting with toe yoga and a lot of sitting foot and calf movements. It took me a long time to be able to walk after my surgery. PT helped me get back to walking, then I found a sports chiropractor who did ART- active release technique which helped with a lot of leftover pain i was having. Listen to Dr. Angela walks video on shoes. Inserts and shoes like brooks and hoka are just a crutches. We need to strengthen our feet, not put a "crutch" on them. When you do try a different shoe, for me it was Altra Paradigm, but you may need to start with 4mm drop shoe like the Altra fwd, especially if you're used to brooks or hoka high heel drop shoes. Other people seem to also like topos, I just haven't personally tried those. But, when you transition to a new shoe, you have to do it sooooo slowly. Dr. Angela talks about how to transition also. It comes down to a lot of consistent foot, calves, hip strengthening exercises, the right shoes, wearing toe spacers for shorts spurts of time barefoot at home, and scraping using a graston tool- scaping is a hard technique for me and my sports chiropractor used this and dr angela has videos on it as well. Any other pain I used voltaren cream during work, soaked my feet in warm epsom salt at night, and I used castor oil overnight, others use magnesium oil... Good luck!!

Always heel never arch. Both.

I can tell you what to do that won’t cost you anything but a few seconds/minutes. Massage your calves with the opposite knee. It will hurt. You can sit or lay to do this. Do as often as you want. It took me several months for the pain to totally go away. I still do them everyday. Good luck.

I’ve had PF for 19 months all the pain is only in my heels. It’s the #1 case of heel pain. I don’t know he would tell you that

Yes mine is in the heel too, you’re not alone 😮‍💨

I had pain in the classic PF area and then also a lot of pain in my heel and really throughout my hole foot I just had surgery by a neurologist on my ankle to release the nerves entrapped in my ankle (tarsal tunnel) and the orthopedic dr did the PF release part at the same surgery appointment. There is something else called Baxter Nueroma where a different area can have a trapped nerve. When I first met the PF doctor she said she suspected the other issue and if she went ahead with surgery I would not have a good result if the other issues were actually at play so she referred me to Nuero dr to either rule it in/out

My pain is mainly in the heel . Time for a new dr

Time for an ankle MRI w/o contrast and get to the cause of this. There is probably pain more in central heel area.

Mine is only in my heel.

Heel only , like standing on lego bricks

My pain started on my right heel about 2 months ago when I got out of bed in the morning and walked to the bathroom and maybe a few more steps. I didn’t have hardly any pain the rest of the day. Someone told me to wear a “United Ortho Plantar Fasciitis Adjustable Leg Support Brace (bought from Amazon) boot” to bed at night. The boot is supposed to keep the foot in a “L” shape so it should not fall or drop - hope you know what I mean. It took a few nights to get accustomed to it but I’m a side sleeper so after three nights I could sleep thru the night. The pain was gone after three nights. I still get a little heel pain and a little tingling in my foot during the day if I sit for a long time and then walk. I have been happy with Skechers “Go Walk Arch Fit - Grateful”. I have tried several different brands arch support shoes. Sometimes I use a different arch support insert. I have not found an insert that I like. I’m open for suggestions. Once in a while if I sit too long my feet will swell a little. Recently I started wearing short compression socks and that has seemed to be helpful for pain in my arch area (don’t know why). I’m hopeful I can stay ahead of the pain and be able to walk outside when the weather is warmer.

Pain in the heel, i've seen 2 PT's and I'm very dubious about their diagnosis of PF. Seen something called Fat Pad Atrophy which is wear & tear, age related, and not treatable. Not something I want to accept as I'm very active normally.
