Are you ready to learn how a podiatrist treated his own heel pain and emerged victorious? Plantar fasciitis, a common foot condition, occurs when the band of tissue connecting your heel to your toes becomes irritated or swollen, akin to overstretching a rubber band. Factors like overuse, foot structure, wearing unsupportive shoes, and being overweight can contribute to this condition.
Symptoms of plantar fasciitis include stabbing pain in the heel, stiffness, achiness, and swelling. To address his own heel pain, the podiatrist opted for anti-inflammatory medication to control inflammation and wore custom orthotics to support his feet and improve his walking mechanics.
Custom orthotics are specially designed shoe inserts that provide personalized support, reduce stress on the feet, and improve foot alignment. They're beneficial for various foot issues, including flat feet, high arches, and overpronation, making walking, running, and standing more comfortable.
In addition to orthotics, the podiatrist utilized shockwave therapy, a non-invasive treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing processes using sound waves. Shockwave therapy can reduce pain, promote healing, and improve blood flow to the affected area.
Furthermore, the podiatrist found relief from his heel pain by using a topical transdermal cream containing both CBD and CBG. This innovative cream, applied directly to the heel, provided rapid pain relief and helped alleviate inflammation.
CBD and CBG are non-psychoactive cannabinoids derived from the hemp plant, known for their pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. The cream, formulated with medical-grade hemp-derived isolates, penetrates deeply into the skin, delivering targeted relief without causing a high.
The podiatrist's success with treating his own heel pain underscores the effectiveness of these treatments in managing plantar fasciitis. By combining anti-inflammatory medication, custom orthotics, shockwave therapy, and topical CBD/CBG cream, he was able to alleviate his symptoms and regain comfort in his daily activities.
