Okay, so let's give him an extension.

i tore mine and that was probably better than dealing with chronic, nagging pain

Not sure if this is allowed on the forum, but anyone with plantar fascia issues, I cannot recommend Dr. Marty Lang of NOPA enough. Had no idea what was bothering my foot and he diagnosed pf immediately (he used a sonogram I believe to determine it). Got the inserts and its much better. He also does PF surgery. He was able to figure it out when 2 other podiatrists didnt.

Challenging injury that varies from patient to patient. The patient is typically limited by pain, but it is quite intense and definitely interferes with your ability to be a high level athlete. But this is something that typically doesn't take more than a month with professional Sports Med (though I guess it can be debated if the Saints actually have that).

I'm having surgery for mine next month. Can't take the pain anymore. No way he can play with that.

It depends. I've had that from running a lot. I didn't stop running and kept doing therapy and it eventually went away in a few weeks. So, it all depends on how bad it is. I'm guessing that it's not bad enough that he couldn't come in and play QB if he had to, but the running component would be taken out of his game. But, the best case is still a few weeks to heal, and that's if he's not slamming into the D-line on short yardage.

Why? Brees played with it, and quite well too.

Oh I thought it was as lingering concussion concerns. Glad his ole noggin is fine.

Remember, he came back and played v Atl since the concussion?

Is it planta fascia, or planta fasciitis? I thought it was fasciitis. Two very different degrees of injury and typee of pain and limited mobility/discomfort. I have had fasciitis. It is very painful and causes a lot of discomfort and limited mobility.

Time to take the SHOT TH7! Steroid shot that is. I have had PF several times in my life. I get the steroid combo, (Cortisol and Kenalog). I get the shot one day, and I can walk without any issues 2 days later. Most importantly, I won't die!

There are levels to it. If it's really bad you don't even want to take a step and surely you can't play football.

See my other response if you haven't tried the things I mentioned...oh and drink a lot of water and stop drinking energy drinks. They dehydrate the hell out of you and can lead to these types if issues.

I will try it!

Mine hurts to a point that I hate just walking. I don't have NFL level trainers and medical treatment though.

Depends on the severity. I've fought varying degrees of pain and sometimes none at all. But I definitely can empathize with having to hobble around like a troll at times. Lol

My mom, who's 77, said I walk like I'm older than her!
