Title: Manning has plantar fascia injury and is out again Sunday Post by: BanditVol on November 23, 2015, 09:20:56 EST http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/14205237/brock-osweiler-denver-broncos-start-qb-vs-new-england-patriots-peyton-manning-sit-again
The thing is, I have had sore plantar fascia myself, and the key is to stretch well. If your calves are too tight it ends up stressing/stretching the plantar fascia (located on the back half of the heel and a bit up the leg). I didn't believe the orthopedist when he told me that, but it's true. Now, if Manning actually has a partial tear, that's different. But if this is the run of the mill plantar fascia "stretched ligament", it's really not that big of a deal though it can be very painful. Hmmmm.......

But how do you diagnose a "partial tear"? I'm not sure an ultra-sound or MRI would even pick that up. I am in fact questioning the seriousness of the injury, but if he is consulting a specialist in NC, it's probably pretty serious.

It's like walking on glass and is worse for me early in the morning.

In my case, it's just a matter of stretching, which for an athlete would not seem that big of a deal. OTOH, the article does mention that it can get "little tears", and if so, rest might be the best remedy. |
