Plantar fasciitis is often a warning sign that something is wrong with one’s posture, gait, or footwear. By paying attention to these signals and making the necessary adjustments, you can prevent the condition from worsening and avoid future flare-ups.
Studies have shown that 80 percent of patients with plantar fasciitis improve with night splints. This treatment is particularly helpful for older patients who have had their symptoms for more than a year. Although night splints are uncomfortable, the results are generally positive, and many patients cite them as their best treatment.
