With proper diagnosis and treatment, there is no doubt that plantar fasciitis can be successfully treated. However, many people find that the best treatment is prevention. Therefore, if you find that you are suffering from painful symptoms or if you are experiencing particularly severe symptoms, it is important to take steps to prevent further progression. This includes properly stretching your feet and properly resting your feet after every activity.<\/p>\n
The key to effective treatment for plantar fasciitis is effective stretching of the plantar fascia muscle, while simultaneously stretching your calf muscles. If possible, this stretching can be improved by using a leg extension\/stretching machine at the local gym. If this is not possible or if you are uncomfortable using such equipment, a quality stretching exercise routine can still be highly beneficial in effectively treating and preventing plantar fasciitis.<\/p>\n
To help get started with prevention, you will want to get a full examination and consultation from your Melbourne podiatrist<\/a>. The podiatrist will examine your feet and ankles for signs of inflammation, swelling, redness, or mechanical stress. In most cases, these signs are caused by plantar fasciitis. He will also take a series of tests, including x-rays, to determine if inflammation or mechanical pressure has caused damage to the plantar fascia. It is usually a good idea for patients to undergo a thorough physical exam and to meet with their podiatrist before they decide on a treatment plan.<\/p>\n
