Thank you for your insight here- I really appreciate it. I am going to the Podatrist tomorrow and am armed with questions!!! I’ve thought about the cortisone shots, but wondering if since it’s already torn and hopefully attached back if it makes sense. I’m thinking right now it’s just a lot of scar tissue I need to break up, increase blood flow and strengthen my foot.

Thank you! I’ll keep you posted on my pool stuff- need to write a post soon. Send your boy over here- he and Marshall can run around like crazy kids.

Oh gosh, I didn’t realize you had that long of a recovery. Thanks for this. BOOZE YES.

I ended up with three weeks of crutches and two months of the boot. I had physical therapy a few times a week including three cortisone shots. The injury happened in November, I stopped running by mid December and eventually I was back to running somewhat normal by March.

My advise is to take as long as recovery as you feel you need. I should have stopped running sooner, but I was also rushed back into running by my track coach. Unfortunately, I still have issues with my arch from time to time, but I’m much more cautious now.

Pants are the enemy. I wish I had something to say to help you out, but thankfully I’ve never had any major injuries. I do plan on getting back in the pool in the next few weeks so I’d love to hear your pool workouts!

The fact that something is actually torn though is completely terrifying and I feel like that would take forever to heal.

When I had post tib tendonitis that wouldn’t quit, I was cleared for running but it never felt good/right even though PT and doctors were saying it was okay to do it. So from end of Feb until June 7th (because I got discharged on my birthday), I just didn’t run. I had to start with 30 minutes tops of 1 minute run, 4 minutes walk when I finally did run. I could only up to 2 minutes/3 minutes if I had no pain during or after the entire 30 minute session. I think I was doing it 2-3 times per week and it took like 3-5 times before I could “level up” until I was finally doing 30 minutes non-stop. It took me until mid-September I think?

I’m guessing if post tib tendonitis can require like 4 months of no impact, a torn plantar fascia could easily require the same or more to fully heal. Suggestion: stock up on more booze.
