I m 40 and have been an a/c mechanic 22 yrs knees grind and pop any help/advise would be appreciated, Thanks
The treatment of plantar fasciitis, when not responding to medicines is local injections, either steroids or PRP. Shoe modification with silicone heels also helps in long-term.
I would also advise an X-ray of both the heels in lateral view assessing the calcaneal spur, the presence of which, increases swelling in the area. Rarely surgery is required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel,
