Top 10 Plantar Fasciitis Treatments

Ice Packs

Ice packs can be helpful in alleviating and controlling pain triggered by plantar fasciitis since it works to minimize inflammation and other signs of this condition. This is especially true after an unexpected flare-up. There are many ways to apply ice packs to an affected area. For instance, you would put it on the bottom of the foot for 30 minutes and 3 to 4 times per day. Also, try to soak your foot in an ice bath with a mixture of water and ice for 10 to 15 minutes. Keep in mind to place a towel or cloth between the skin and the ice pack.  [3]
