Has anyone developed Plantar fasciitis after TKR?

I had some issues with Plantar fasciitis several years ago, but it was manageable. Since my TKR, this pain in my heel is unreal.
I do the stretches and exercises but not much relief. Any suggestions 🤔

I developed Plantar about 8 months post TKR for the first time. It is painful and I believe it may have started as a result of a poor TKR result which has significantly affected my walking.
My podiatrist recommended inserts which helped and no bare foot walking around the house. I did get a coritsone injection which helped but it took 7-8 months before it got better.
Good luck.
