Plantar fascia

[Mr. dB]

Is it possible to rupture the plantar's fascia?

If so, I think I did it tonight. I've been having issues with plantar's fasciitis, and was gonna call my doctor tomorrow anyway because the treatment he gave me (night splint) isn't helping at all.

Well tonight at work I tripped over a guitar case and something went "POP" in my foot, and the pain got dramatically worse. I can barely walk. Fun.

What are those seed pods from trees, the ones that look like a cockleburr except they're about an inch in diameter? When I was a kid I like putting one of those in my shoe. I guess I was a seven year old masochist.

I'm gonna try ice. I've got a bag of frozen purple hull peas I can try.

It's possible to rip, break, or stretch anything... fascia, tendons, ligaments, bone. If it's the human body, it's breakable.

take a shirt or towel and use it to pull ur toes back to stretch arch, that is what the dr has me do when i had this issue. it takes doing this for a week or so but it got better.

See a doc tomorrow if you're in a lot of pain. If you think you're alright, you still need to start thinking about having the problem dealt with: I suggest searching for a certified Active Release practitioner. Be sure to call around and ask them about their experiences treating plantar fasciitis. Start your search at Active Release Techniques®

Good luck.

I had very good luck indeed with Myofascial Release Therapy for a bout of back pain a couple of years ago.

Oh wow I can't walk at all now, barefoot. I was hobbled but mobile in shoes with a heel pad/arch support, but I'm gonna need crutches to move about my apartment. I had to sit down to take my socks off 'cause I couldn't stand on my left foot to raise the right one.

And two Tramodol did nothing.
