I kidd I kidd…

Have not tried it personally, but have you considered a little TOPAZ? TOPAZ surgery

Frozen golf ball on the floor. Roll around on bottom of foot.

Did you get the cortisone shot in the heel? That helped knock out the pain for me while the Superfeet Green insoles and foot stretcher did their work. Both were recommended by my Podiatrist.

Its been a couple of years and I've gone away from the insoles and every time I feel the pain coming, I use the foot stretcher in the morning after I put my shoes on and before I go to bed...knocks the pain out for several days.

I will say that getting a shot in your heel (I've had it done twice) is one of the most painful experiences I have ever had.

No lie...felt like lightning was shooting around in my foot.

No but I’ve been doing weekly dry needling in the heel. Shot is my next option.

Go to a yoga class it’ll change your life.

If you won’t go to a class (which I understand) do the stretches from a YouTube video. If you do it consistently, your entire body will thank you

Doing that when you're about to get into bed helps.
Also, grabbing a blanket or sheets with your toes. You can also wear a PF foot brace when you sleep.

Yes, I remember the first time the doctor downplayed how painful it would be. As I was going through it, he said it was almost over. After it was done, I commented about how painful it was, and he said, "yes, it hurts like hell."

I guess he knew if he told me the truth I might back out. He would have been right.
