WEEEKLY CHAT - WEEK 49!
WEEKLY CHAT #49
OK, let's try the weekly chat idea, V2. Been hearing some positive comments! Seems like we have a winner! Give it a chance! Here goes! <3
I started a new job a few months ago and it's killing me. But I'm a single dad and this job allows me to work 3 12s and be home with my daughter for the rest of the week
I'm having the worst plantar fasciitis, to the point that I'm barely struggling through the three day week. I've tried everything from OTC meds to different shoes, insoles, orthotics etc. I'm on my feet on concrete for 12 hours straight
I just got medical coverage a couple days ago. I'm hoping to get this figured out. Thanks for listening to my ranting, and please keep my little family in your prayers!
Been there. I found thing planar facetious sleeves work well. Thicker ones tend to make it feel like there's a ridge under the ball of your foot and hurt more than they help. I suggest pairing sleeves with Dr. Shoals off-the-shelf insoles for it.
Look up TechWare Pro Ankle Brace Compression Sleeve on amazon for the best brand that I've found.
If you go to CVS you should find a Dr. Scholes custom insole setup where you can measure your foot arch and pick a custom solution. Don't use it myself but it's a $60 alternative to the 'professional' orthopedic system solutions that can run $400 for a single arch support, not including insoles and over a thousand dollars in related things they try to throw at you.
Also try getting a rubber cricket ball to roll around under your sore foot. Front and back, side to side, etc, while pushing in harder in the stiff areas to massage your foot.
There's also a variety of foot stretches that you can look up to work on the injured areas of your foot.
I see you, Biden!
Lol. Was multitasking setting up a new computer and wasn't overly focused on grammar ... and had to make a new account while I was at it due to not being able to get the password from my last one.
But, just like our dear president will be doing, I went from 45 to 47!
You're a handshake again, we may sometimes have to manually approve your comments. We might not see them for a while.
