I haven’t tried muscle relaxers for it, but I rarely get a severe case anymore. My pain is felt in the arch of my foot, not heel. I’m not sure if my stability has been due to me wearing Vionic shoes (built in orthotics) to support my high arches or my daily walks.

If I get any twinges of early pain, I take it easy for the day. I try not to walk on it much. My last relapse several years ago that was very painful was cured in just a few minutes when my acupuncturist just did some touch therapy on my calf and foot. I was there for something else. The procedure was so painful that I almost fainted, but well worth it, as I walked out of the office with just a little soreness and no pain! I had hobbled in. Lol Love that guy.
