Hello. Is the pain in your foot on the sole, mainly with a tender point under the inner aspect of the heel? It may be plantar fasciitis. What is your profession? Does it involve a lot of walking? Please give more information here. If this is plantar fasciitis then treatment is warm water soak (to relax fascia), plantar stretching exercises (google it), and anti inflammatories for 7 days. If however the pain is elsewhere on foot (under toes or midfoot), it could be something else. In that case please see a local orthopaedic surgeon.
Hi.... Rest your foot...This should be done as much as possible. Avoid running, excess walking or standing and undue stretching of your sole. Gentle walking and exercises are fine....
Do not walk barefoot on hard surfaces. Choose shoes with cushioned heels and a good arch support.....
Regular, gentle stretching of your Achilles tendon and plantar fascia may help to ease your symptoms. This is because most people with plantar fasciitis have a slight tightness of their Achilles tendon....
Consult orthopedician.....
