Here I am gathering a collection of Plantar Fasciitis Surgery Stories.
If you are facing foot surgery, this is a great resource to educate yourself about the results you can expect from first hand accounts of people that have gone under the knife before you.
If you have already had surgery on your Plantar Fascia, this is an opportunity to share your story. Feel free to ask people that post their stories any questions you might have, using the 'comment' function below their story.
Please share the experience of your foot surgery.
How bad was your pain before surgery? How are your feet now, and how long has it been since surgery?
Plantar Fasciitis Surgery can be scary to face.
Share your story so other people will have a better idea what to expect.
Please include the following information:
1. How long had you been having foot problems?
2. How severe was the pain and problem?
3. What was the experience of the actual surgery?
4. What was the recovery like?
5. How long has it been since the surgery, and how are you now?
