Reply To: How to ease bad foot pain?

Thanks for the replies guys. Been doing some searching and look like you guys are right and I have plantar fasciitis. Lots of horror stories online of people who have been suffering from endless cycles of plantar fasciitis for years. Cannot seem to find a clear an answer of what exactly causes this condition apart from “overuse”. Once you get plantar fascitiis once or the arch of your foot becomes weakened from the ageing process/foot injury does that mean you have a much greater chance of getting this condition again and again? Is there anyway of strengthening the ligaments in your foot to stop this?

Will definitely look online for some off the shelf insoles as they sound the best bet at the moment.
