re: Dealing with Plantar fasciitis

I had Plantar Fasciitis when I was in Middle School and I was on the Cross Country team. It was awful, and it was every step I took I felt like I was being stabbed in the heel. I didn't think anything was wrong with it at first, but eventually, I told my mom about it.
We went to a Doctor about it and he recommended I get better running shoes(Asics) with a lot more support, and he also recommended I put gel inserts into them for even more support. I also had to get taped a certain way by the doctor and had to go back a few times to get re-taped. Funny thing about this was the Doctor told me that this only usually occurred with middle-aged men that were runners, and he had never really seen a kid have this problem.
I don't remember exactly how long it took to recover, but I think it healed on its own after a few weeks to a month.
