This came out of the blue, I woke yesterday and my roght foot was screaming. I had trouble walking at first and could ski but I did have trouble pressuring my right ski (some might say that is nothing new). At the end of the day I could not put pressure on my foot when I walked and got progressively worse. I had trouble sleeping but was up between 1:00 and 5:00 because of the pain (some might say that is also nothing new).
I barely could get out of bed but made it downstairs, fortunately I had two willing nurses on staff @Tricia and @Wendy and one in the wings, an actual real nurse waiting in the wings, @SkiNurse. Unfortunately, as much as a pleased, I could not get a sponge bath. I put my foot up and Tricia put (on me) some Fits socks specifically for Plantar Fasciitis and they immediately helped. I thought I would give it the ole Skitalk try and go skiing but when we got up to A-Basin, I tried to get my boots on and it wasn't happening. I could just not get my foot around the bend. Back to the condo for me.
I did some research after people smarter than me suggested these two -itis's could be the culprits and while the symptoms are similar, there are some differences in that I have symptoms of both. I have the similar discomfort but leaning to the PT but it is not feling as good when resting. Addressing the issue is very different where the PF wants stretching, the PT suggests immobilize.
I know we have some Doc's here and people who have gone though either of these. If I still have the issues when I return to Reno, I will go see my PT then.
