Question
Can getting plantar fasciitis be cured?
Answer
Plantar fasciitis is prone to recurrence and usually presents with swelling, pain, and tenderness. The condition is primarily caused by long-term high-intensity exercise, where the bones repeatedly withstand external forces, and it can also be infectious. It is advisable to consult a local orthopedic department in a regular hospital. Treatment should focus on rest and recovery, pain relief, and may include regional injections of corticosteroids for therapy.
