Recovering from a foot, heel, or ankle injury takes a lot of time. These are some ways that can help you through the recovery process. Most of the time these are not permanent fixes, but ways to stay active while you work to get better.
Temporary Fixes For Foot, Heel, and/or Ankle Pain
Taping
Shoe Inserts

You may wonder, if these are only temporary, what are some long term fixes? For most foot, heel, and ankle issues, the best recipe is a combination of strengthening, mobility, and stretching. Most of the time your feet and ankles need to progress load to handle what you are putting them through. This is true for any sport (including walking), standing on your feet all day, and just performing your daily routines. An injury can feel debilitating, but you will get better. Your body is amazing, and usually can heal itself.
