Note
MRI results:
--My plantar fascia is 7 mm (instead of 4 mm) thick over a 1.2 cm section (which is fairly large apparently)
--still have slight tendinitis, probably in compensation for the PF
--stress fracture is completely healed, but there is still slight inflammation of the heel, again, due to the PF
I probably started running again too soon (although the doc and PT both thought I was ready)
Next steps:
cortisone shot
recreational walking or cycling only
follow up in 3 weeks
The shot didn't hurt going in, but the next few hours were brutal! Ibuprofen and ice helped slightly. But it got better over time, and now it is just a little tight.
Have cortisone shots worked for anyone? Hard to find reliable reports on the internet. I'm just so frustrated and want this to be completely better.
