Can plantar faciliitis heal? How long does it take?

Question

What are best ways for treatment?

Answer 1

In addition to Christina's response, an orthotic device can be placed in your shoes. The cheapest GOOD one that my physician recommended is $75. He told me that I can also be 'fitted' (a cast is made) for one, but it's a minimum of $400. Those from WalMart, etc. just don't compare. Also, you can always use an ice pack and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen - for the pain and inflammation.

Answer 2

Plantar warts are benign (noncancerous) growths that occur on the sole (plantar surface), heel, or ball of the foot. Pressure from standing and walking often causes them to grow into deep layers of the skin. In some cases, podiatrists apply mild acid (e.g., salicylic acid, cantharidin, dichloroacetic acid) topically to treat plantar warts. This treatment, which often requires multiple applications over the course of several weeks, disintegrates viral cells and allows healthy skin cells to replace them. Laser treatments (e.g., CO2 laser cautery) can be used to treat plantar warts. Laser treatment is performed in a podiatrist's office or an outpatient surgery facility using local anesthesia. Lasers produce little scarring and are effective in most cases. Cryotherapy involves freezing warts with a very cold solution (e.g., sodium nitride) that destroys the virus and causes the wart to turn black and fall off within a few days.
