MUELLER Sports Medicine PFTape, Plantar Fasciitis Pain Relief Athletic Tape, Therapeutic Support for the Foot, Disposable, Latex Free, One-Time Use Bandages

I have tried everything in the last 12 years to banish my heel pain, which at times limits my walking to a block and flares out of control, and severely has limited my life.I have see 3 different physical therapists over the years, and a few podiatrists and foot orthopedists. THe norm is to start with specific stretching and strengthening exercises, follow their guidance of coure But I already do those just to maintain my functioning. Recently with some wait gain despite all that my heels were getting worse and worse.I've used other types of stretchy sports tape (beginning with letter K). This isn't stretchy. I didn't think this would work but it's likely the only thing I"ve not tried...I"m talking I've done MONTHS of research.This healed my acute exacerbation of my chronic problemWHy is the price worth it for only 7 applications? Because if you have heel pain as disabling as mine is, the price is trivial (though I'm blessed to be able to afford it).NoteI needed to use this for a month to blow away my acute problem. IT says on the material it comes with that you should have tape 12 hrs on and 12 off, but elsewehre it says leave it on 24 hrs. I wear night splints so at night I gave my skin an occasional rest from this tape. It's VERY sticky so you have to watch your skin to make sure you don't cause an abrasion.Try this ...but long term, fellow sufferers, follow the conventional guidelines tooOne thing I didI have always stretched the heck out of my calf muscles like you are supposed to for plantar fascitis/heel pain. I think I was stretching too much and that caused an acute spike. THis rested it an healed itIT says on it it's mean to rest and heal it.I am telly you this is a UNIQUE product as far as I knowthe tape doesn't stretchread directions well before you use it and good luck
