As a middle-aged English walker , I suddenly got this . Googled to find out what it was , then had a brainwave and tried YouTube for advice . Your video made real sense . Used your exercises and I was back to normal in a month . Thanks a million , I was in a lot of pain and hobbling badly . Paul.

@pkearvell : Thanks for letting me know my video helped you. I'm really glad you're out of pain!

Yes, the stretches should be effective for you.

Becky Thank you so much for making the little film re plantar fasciitis.

See we English people can learn things from our American cousins!!!

After many years of running I suddenly got it. What I like about your film is it shows how to do the exercises and is not patronising or trying to sell product.

I also have a dog called Toto - if you know the one in the Wizard of Oz(before your time) and she comes and steals my iced water bottle.

@MyJabberwock : Glad you were able to learn something new! Nope--no selling of products here. Just trying to help. Oh, and by the way, The Wizard of Oz isn't before my time ;-) . Watched it many times as a kid. I'll take it as a compliment that you thought I was too young to know about it, LOL!

Hi Becky!

Thank you sooo sooo much for these tips.

I have been running many years, in all kinds of shoes...no problem...but last week I did too much running after a one year break and suddenly my foot hurts SO much! Not only in the morning, but I can hardly walk, the foot is swollen and hot the whole time! If I use ice, exercises and your other tips... can I cure it for good or will I be probably stuck with this my whole life? Thanks so much,

Cebela

@Cebela11 Hi Cebela, I'm so glad the video was helpful. The fact that your foot is swollen and hot concerns me. I think icing is a good idea, but this sounds like something that needs medical attention right now. If I were you, I'd make an appointment to see your physician before continuing with the suggestions I have in my video, as you want to make sure you know what you're dealing with first!

Thanks for yout email. Have found that arnica cream if rubbed in and massaged before bed seems to help.

My pain seems to be more in the heel area. Are the stretches you demonstrated effective there too. The pain I have doesn't bother me most of the time - only when I bend my foot forward a certain way and then it is a stabbing pain. Thank you for your video.
