Another thing that really helped me are these spiky domes. I had them beside the bed and used them first thing when I got out of bed and a couple more times throughout the day.

Regarding Yoga Toes, try putting your fingertips between your toes to get an idea of how they will spread your toes.

I had it for around 6 months. I think what finally fixed mine was staying off my toes, which meant giving up my beloved dance classes, and wearing Oofos flip flops which have great arch support.
I can't speak to the rebounder. I wouldn't have used it. It seems to me like it would aggravate it, but I don't know. Mine will start to come back if I try to spend too much time barefoot.

I can tell in the spring that I haven't been barefoot for months bc my feet feel weaker. That's one thing I'm struggling with at the moment: the pedorthist I saw this week wants me wearing sandals in the house. I am a barefoot kind of girl! I exercise my feet periodically through the day. I guess sandals are easy enough to slip off.

Vannie - I wear Birks or Spencos most of the time in the house, but I almost always work out in bare feet to strengthen & stretch my feet. That works for me, but you’ll need to find a balance that works for you. My podiatrist wanted me strapped into shoes with orthotics as soon as I got out of bed in the morning. That helped a lot during the acute phase, but didn’t work for me in the long term.

Thanks, Pam! This whole thing has been so weird to me. The PF has been gone a long time so I'm not dealing with that and the current issues cause me very little pain. It's harder to change when pain is isn't a motivator!

Thank you all for your thoughtful replies. I will pass on your experiences and I will incorporate some of the suggestions myself. My feet have started feeling “funny” at times and being paranoid, I’m worried I might be developing PF.
Thanks again! _____ YADeb |
