    Yep suffered chronically with it, tried exercises, heel gels, socks etc the exercises helped but never fully stopped it the socks and heels made it worse.
    Tried to book see a specialist privately and they said get shoes checked out first before spending my money with them.
    Went to shop where I buy my running shoes from and changed my long run shoes and started wearing cushioned shoes for work and the change was almost instant.

    You should go and see a podiatrist and get them specially made. It will be worth it, trust me. Orthotics when measured up are much more effective.

    Last time I had someone saying "trust me" to me I got banned from the site.

    This time however you are no doubt absolutely correct. Being a tight git though it's not a bad idea to dip a painful toe in the water to see what the ripples might disturb.

    I had it, didn’t do anything other than be in pain, and it just went away by itself. Apparently the advice is rest and ice though.

    Insoles provide comfort as well as stretching exercises on the stairs to loosen the tension in your heel.

    I should probably look into that, I’ve never seen anyone’s feet with arches like mine, I swear I’d be three shoe sizes bigger if my feet flattened, just used to it now though.

    Wow!! Everyone seems to be saying that insoles is the remedy.

    Well that is certainly not what you get as the chief remediator on Youtube.

    I've watched 20 different videos and a cure is all over the shop, with conflicting do's and dont's.

    Thank you!

    But if I'm still crippled in 6 months time, I know which stadium to find you in........

    It isn't necessarily the remedy alone but a podiatrist is your best bet.

    Yeah no offence, but I honestly thought this was going to be a thread about a foreign player. :D

    Yes - it’s been a problem for me for years - stopped me playing running football, and put paid to any jogging. I did get some insoles, and they helped but they’ve disintegrated now so need to get some made.

    Sports direct do have a pretty good system of showing you what footwear is most beneficial. You step on a heat map type thing and it works out how flat footed you are.

    As others have said, avoid flat shoes, wear trainers with arches, or put the orthotic in flat shoes.

    My biggest issue is finding astro trainers with decent enough arches or enough room for the orthotic. I always end up with some pain after walking football.

    You can do a similar test at home by standing on a paper towel with wet bare feet. It’s not as scientific but it gives you a good idea.
