You may have heard that recovering from plantar fasciitis takes several months with conservative treatment, such as icing the painful area, stretching, and modifying or avoiding activities that cause pain. Read on and find out how you get pain relief from plantar fasciitis much faster with non-surgical, minimally invasive and risk-free regenerative therapies.
Plantar fasciitis is a painful and debilitating condition. It primarily affects athletes, people whose jobs require them to stand for long periods of time. And those who put heavy stress on their feet. It involves inflammation of the plantar fascia, the strands of connective tissue that run along the sole of the foot, linking the heel of the foot to the ball and toes.
The plantar fascia protects and relieves pressure from the bottom of your foot because it acts like a shock-absorbing bowstring. However, it can tear due to repetitive tension and stress. When it is stretched and torn, it becomes inflamed, resulting in plantar fasciitis.
The inflammation can be caused by trauma from an injury, or from overuse of the tissue. It usually manifests as sharp pain in the heel or sole of the foot and an inability to point the toes upward. If left untreated, it can lead to other and more severe orthopaedic conditions in the foot, shin, and knee.
Regenerative therapy for plantar fasciitis only takes a few hours to complete. It is performed in an outpatient setting, no general anaesthesia is required and most patients don’t need post-operative pain medication. Patients will be able to go home almost immediately after the injection is done. Since this therapy is an orthobiological treatment that requires time for the cells to restore the damaged areas in the foot, patients will not feel the effect of the injection immediately. On average, most patients will start to see signs of improvement in the form of reduced pain or increased function within 30 days.
Regenerative Therapy for plantar fasciitis is a safe alternative to surgery and other traditional plantar fasciitis treatments. Since we only use Cells and Enhanced PRP that were harvested from the same patient, the risk of infections or rejection is virtually non-existent.
In general, Regenerative Therapy can be utilised by anyone, regardless of the age, race, or gender. However, in order to determine if you are a good candidate and will benefit the most from this plantar fasciitis treatment in UK, you will need to schedule an appointment with our Clinic to have assessment done by our Consultant, who will review your medical records and determine if you are a qualified candidate for our therapy. The choice of treatment is then at the discretion of the Consultant and is based on your unique case.
