Cortisone Injection
If the plantar fasciitis pain doesn’t resolve with home remedies, then consider a cortisone injection to reduce the inflammation. In most cases, this method might provide better results if performed early. However, keep in mind that many doctors don’t prefer this option since they tend to have serious side effects. Only consider it in severe cases in your heel area when other methods don’t work. Multiple shots aren’t recommended because it might weaken the plantar fascia and diminish your pad, which covers the heel bone. Before an injection, you need to undergo a food radiograph. [8]
