How To Get Rid Of Muscle Tightness In Legs And Feet While Having Plantar Fasciitis?
I have had plantar fascitis (spelt that wrong!) for two and a half years and im really over it! All the muscles in my legs and feet are really tight even though i do stretches daily and go for a massage weekly. Is this a contributing factor and how can i get rid of this horrible affliction? Oh , i also use heat packs on my calfs daily and soak my feet in hot water to try and loosen them up. I am on my feet all day for work. Help!!!
You your self has given reason why your calf are so tight. It is because of your prolonged standing. Tight calf muscles is a additive factor in planter fasciitis. So apart from exercises and hot water fomentation which you are using take carnisure tablet per day. It will increase your muscle strength. Wear soft footwear. Silicon gel foot soles are also available.
