Hi recently joined. I have multiple issues going on with both my feet, from plantar fasciitis, bunions, and bunionettes, heal spurs on bottom and back of heels plus accessory ossicle all of this is in both feet. One issue compounds the other and it’s a challenge to be pain free. I’ve tried several good expensive shoes with little to no relief.

Does anyone else have weakness/fatigue in their legs? I can only rock my baby for 30 seconds before my legs have extreme fatigue and I can’t use them to rock anymore. I don’t know if this is normal. I was told a year ago the bones in my feet are misaligned. I wore orthotics for 3 months and then I was pain free.

What has people's experience been with PRP? I've had two shockwave treatments (the high intensity kind), several rounds of PT, tried all the braces, stretching, scraping, massaging, etc. and cant get rid of PF in my left foot.

Has anyone gone to a chiropractor to treat their PF? I was talking to someone yesterday who said he saw a chiropractor for 4-5 sessions and he has been pain free since (which has been years). I plan to look into it but wonder if others have had success going with this route.
