oooh I hope it works. I've dealt with that - really bad. We did PT for a while and ended up with cortisone injections. YYOOOOOWWWWIE they HURT - but you know what - they WORK. Feels like fire injected into the heel and I've NEVER felt pain like that before nor since, but about 3 hours later there is relief from the swelling/irritation of the tendon and it lasts for several weeks. I had a series of 3 injections - 3 weeks apart and the foot has been 100% pain free since the last one (4 years!) Hope it doesn't come to that for you - but if it does, grin and bear it - it's worth it in the end.
You are so cool. I have it too, I was pain free for a couple of years and now it is coming back. If people haven't had it they have no clue how painful it is and how hard to get over.
The ultrasound massages always feel soooo good, I had them for my arm. But then, the exercises bring back the pain!! Vicious circle!! Happy PT is helping you!
That is interesting. I never knew they did such a thing. I may have to have my dh look into this as he is having some problems. I am glad it feels good, and hope PT works for your future.
This was actually taken today, but since I didn't shoot anything y'day and I had this done y'day too, I am "cheating"! Anyway, I have been having PT for Plantar Fascitis. That is a $100 word for inflamation in the tendons and ligaments that run on the bottom of your foot. It has been very painful, but PT is helping. Here you see me getting ultrasound massage on the bottom and sides of my foot. It is suppose to stimulate blood flow. Believe it or not, it actually feels good and I am extremely ticklish! Oh, don't look at my fat ankle! :(
