It would be interesting to see the results , if anyone has used cannabis oil , i know it works for pain relief but also it has many medicinal properties to trigger a healing response ? when applied to the effected area , obviously not consumed as a drug , of course !

It was just some 2” Velcro from eBay or Amazon, cut the loop part long enough to wrap abound your foot with an overlap and then cut the hook part say 3 inches long and use it like a buckle on the top of your foot. Easier to do than explain, as mentioned you do (or at least I did) need to pull it tight for it to work.

Been suffering with this myself for the last few weeks or so. Not as bad as what a lot of you guys are currently dealing with. The wife and I usually go jogging a few times a week. Not sure if it’s coincidence,
I have not been at all this week, yet the discomfort as eased.
Will see how it goes next week once we go jogging Again. Thought exercise was supposed to be good for you.🤔

Like I said it worked for me and it was cheap too, the video basically shows the Velcro method, the tighter you can stand it the lesser the pain 👍

This might help or give you a few ideas
Tape example here
I had mine done at a chiropodists. Bought some carbon insoles, £170!!! been a lot better since. I have posted in this thread below. I had x rays the lot, nothing, I believe I may have had a very bad case of turf toe but the tape menthol is similar

At this moment in time I'll try anything, the pain I have in my left foot is excruciating. Even the Naproxen and Co-codamol don't seem to be having any effect. Don't think it helps stood up for 10hrs a day and wearing safety boots, the doctor did ask can I sit down at my work  no chance being a wholesale butcher . Have been given stretching exercises to do from NHS physio but the pain seems to have gone worse  . Have had the injections in my right foot and can agree with what others have said not a nice experience, but the pain just went eventually.

I had this for nearly 6 years, I put it down to carry extra weigh, cheap toetectors at work and being stood for 10 hours a day on cold concrete floors. I suffered in silence for long enough but was finding at the weekends I was struggling to walk any great distance say over 10/12 miles (I’ve been in to backpacking/wild camping for years) I had injections, orthotics specially made , ibuprofen etc. I found shifting a bit weight helped but the breakthrough came reading on the net, about a US construction worker who wrapped gaffer tape tightly around the arch of his foot and it disappeared overnight!! I found using 2” wide Velcro fastened so the soft side was facing out from the foot and pulled really tightly worked wonders, it occasionally nipped the top of my foot and became uncomfortable but eventually it went and touch wood it’s still not back. I sometimes get a twinge if I’ve stood on a ladder for too long but other than than I’m well pleased. Give it a go, only cost a couple of quid too...

I have just spoke with the specialist (telephone consultation) and I will be having another injection in about a months time.

I have used them and they "seemed" to provide some comfort but maybe it was just the pressure as they are quite tight. I ended up with one over the other to increase the arch padding to see if it helped but it really didnt.
I also used the shaped support ankle bandage type thing and this also didn't work.
When i saw the specialist for assessment before my injections i asked him if any of these pads or tension bandages actually heleped at all and he said they're all a load of rubbish

Seems nasty. Keep persevering, keep going to the doctors etc etc and hopefully you’ll get that scan and have it sorted out with a proper diagnosis. Sounds worse than the plantar itself.
