[pct-l] Plantar fasciitis recovery

[dwilsonsprint4 at earthlink.net (Don Wilson)]

Like most subjects, this one has been discussed before, but I find a 
live discussion much more appealing than an archive search. Besides, 
there might be some new experiences out there. After a couple of years 
of trying to fit in a thru hike, things are looking good for 2005.  
But, this summer I developed a mild case of plantar fasciitis.  Kinda 
feels like a bruised heel.  It never really hurt much, so I added some 
Spenco inserts to my NB 805s and kept on hiking.  I did a bunch of 
hikes over the summer, and my problem gradually disappeared and was 
gone by September.  Then, a couple of weeks ago, it came back. Still 
only a mild case, but it really worries me prior to a thru hike.  I'll 
go see my doctor, but I'd like to hear some ideas or experiences 
regarding PF recovery.

Thanks,
Don Wilson
