Plantar Fasciitis: How did you get rid of it?

Are the Oofos sturdy in the front so you do not trip over them? Some of these shoes are soft in the front and bend back. I was just wondering. I have had PF for years. I know this is hard to believe, but, when I have my knees injected for my arthritis, my feet quit hurting because I'm systemic with the injection. It's not just localized to the knees with me. It works for about 12 weeks. When the knees start back hurting the PF, bone spurs & achilles tendonitis flares back up. It's amazing to me how this works. God Bless You All as I know how painful the PF can be.

@covidstinks2023 That is so interesting about the knee injections helping with so many other issues. You are lucky! To your question, I wish I could say the front of the shoe does not bend back. But I found when I was out walking at a good clip, they did bend back on me and I was lucky not to fall. So I only wear them in my house and I have never had it happen there. I’m positive that is because I walk at a more leisurely pace inside my home. I’ve worn them every minute of the day during the 3 weeks or so that I’ve owned them when I am in my home. I have nearly gotten rid of the PF entirely now. This is the first real relief I’ve had from this condition in the several years I’ve had it.
My daughter just bought a pair of sneaker style Oofos. I have no idea if they are as good as the slides in helping with PF, but they could be a better solution for some. Best wishes to you!
