What Causes Severe Foot Pain After Treating Plantar Fasciitis?

Hi, my foot pain occurs in both feet. It is at its worst when my feet first touch the floor after sitting or sleeping. It only last for 15 minutes or so but it is excruciating. I have already been examined and treated for plantar fasciitis however it seems to be much worse

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I think you should get tested for arthritis. Do a total blood count and formula, ERS, rheumatoid factor and an X-ray of the affected joints. Taking anti-inflammatory drugs such as Advil or naproxen for pain is helpful.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
