Foot Update

Yesterday I finally went to the foot doctor to get my foot checked out. I was right, it is a bad case of PF! The doctor fit me for a different type of orthotics than the ones I had been wearing to see if they help. In the meantime he gave me an air brace to wear during the day to help take pressure off my heel and relieve the pain. Day 2 of wearing it and its working great!

My foot was feeling so great I decided to go for an easy run last night of two miles…and had pretty much zero foot pain during my run. The weather was so nice, too. I couldn’t resist the sun!

The doctor also gave me a prescription for physical therapy which I’m starting on Monday.  I’ve never done physical therapy for anything before but I’m interested to try it and hope it works!
