The carpal remedy worked...

[Guest guest]

Thanks for all the posts and help on treating my carpal tunnel without

steroids or surgery.

Just after xmas I started using a Carpal Therapist device. Within two weeks

the thing actually killed the pain and numbness; totally. (basically, it

massages the wrist in a way that does the job.) It's a real good product if

you're in bad pain and don't want the docs to have their way with you. I don't

trust docs one bit.

OK now, if anybody has a recommendation for my plantar fasciitis, I'd be good

as new. Vit B complex helps, but just a little. Plantar splints are just barely

useful.

Best, Lee

Try putting a pillow at the foot of the bed (where your feet are) and keeping

your legs straight with the foot flat against the pillow. The idea is to not

let the toe end of your foot drop allowing the hamstring up the leg pull up.

 

I had plantar fasciitis, wore a half cast on my lower leg and foot with the same

idea as the pillow. The cast hurt worse than the fasciitis. I read about using

the pillow in a Prevention magazine. The first nite I used the pillow idea, the

next morning when I got up to walk, the pain was gone. I slept with the pillow

bracing my feet for a long time before I finally got over the fasciitis. But it

worked.

 

Hard to get used to sleeping this way, but it worked for me.

 

Hope that helps....Donetta
