Has anyone had this?

How long did you have it for? How did you manage to get rid of it? Did you have to go to your doctor for help?

For people who don't want to Google it, it's giant swollen Penis syndrome.

Oh. I have it. Had it. Idk. The tendons in my foot crystallised years ago. If it still causes discomfort I'm too used to it to notice any more

How do you find it when you exercise?

You can get a steroid injection into your sole that helps.

There’s also a little electrical massage stimulating machine you can buy from Amazon that really helps - got my mum one and it really helped her.

I had it a few years ago and you can get a foot brace off amazon for a couple of quid. It really helped and went away after a few months

I had it a couple of years ago, I work long days/nights and it was so painful.

What helped me were gel inserts into the heels of my trainers, I got them from amazon, not expensive.

Also a couple of exercises, put a towel on the floor and practise grabbing it with your toes.

Also use a rolling pin under your foot, push it back and forth.

I had it real bad and then I bought a pair of doc martens for work but crocs for everything else and I haven’t had a single problem since- the docs are the ones with the cork insoles and they’ve been great, especially when I’m on my feet all 9 hours of my shift

Tennis ball under the foot, separately use an ice pack, buy heel that pain inserts from amazon, regular stretching exercises for your calf, consider buying some skechers specifically for this, there's also a small ramp thing you can buy to help stretch the calf muscles.

It's fucking agony and I had trouble walking for about a year.

Yeah I hate it….foresercising it’s fine, it’s when I sit down or wake up and my foot has been resting that it hurts more, almost like I’m breaking it in again.

I’m trying to lose a bit of weight and need to buy new shoes again to try and help it

Thanks for all the suggestions so far guys. Going to try it all out.

Also booked in to get a proper trainer assessment from a specialist running shoo, as I think its because I've started running outside again.

Don't run if you have it. Trust me, it'll inflame. If you think it's painful now, it can get much worse.

Had it about 10 years ago, can't remember much about it as a week into it I was diagnosed with Shingles, if you think Plantar is painful multiply the pain by 3 and thats is what you get with Shingles,Seem to remember eating pain killers for weeks.

Pleased to say I have had neither since.

I had steroid injections in the soles of my feet about five year ago and it made a huge difference

Hardly notice it now

The most help I had was from a physio type chiropodist.

But ultimately it was a combination of all of what I said earlier.

I had it a few years ago. I bought some specialised insoles for my shoes and made a point of taking Ibuprofen on a regular basis to ease the discomfort. It was very uncomfortable, as I'm sure you know but it just seemed to disappear by itself after a few months. Keep taking those painkillers though ( but not codeine!).

I just look down below my ankle and under the arch of my foot - and there it is!

Paper Town Central, Essex.

It'll go away on its own but will take time.

You can help it by

1 getting a good pair of orthopedic insoles. These will also help your posture. Everyone has one leg shorter than the other.

2 get a glass bottle and roll it along the bottom of your foot when you're sitting. Put it on the floor anmeve your foot backwards and forwards over it.

3 heat, then cold packs alternately.

4 mix a pea sized blob of deep heat and ibugel together and give the soul of your affected foot a good massage.

As a last resort, you may benefit from a hydrocortisone injection. But it bloody hurts.

I get it on and off for the last 10 years and doing the 3 above usually sorts it out in a couple of weeks.

Good trainers will only sort out impact damage to ankles and knees.

Spend the money in insoles. They're the number 1 thing that'll help you the most.

I had it.

Work shoes used to flair me up. I now wear gummy bottomed Clarks.

I noticed slides have an arch support so I wear a version of them around the house. I can't really wear vans or converse anymore with no arches built in. So I find trainers that have an arch. And boots I assume because of the thicker sole don't cause me an issue.

I also wear them socks with the ribbing around the arch.

All these things I did I don't know what exactly was the solution but it hasn't troubled me a couple of years now.
