I'm still hanging in there, 'though I've stupidly managed to give myself a dose of PF. I'm trying to manage it with a rather fetching Tiny Tim stylee night splint, stretching and self massage (no sniggering at the back)  Any further tips from long term streakers gratefully received. |

Youch! Only had PF once & it went within days - maybe it wasn't PF... Stop running is the 1st instruction but.....if you're a Streaker, this is not what you want to do. Running steadily on level parkland or grass or forest trails is a start. If you're near a beach, firm, flat sand is good too. Here's a peer reviewed article on a site set up in 2002 originally in the NE of England, and now based in Leeds. There's a handy vid too. patient.co.uk |

Thanks, Swit Stopping running does not compute, but I'm willing to try anything else...

Get a golf ball and roll it with your foot, really working it in hard. Do it a couple of times a day for 5 minutes or as long as you can cope. Easily done whilst watching tv or if you work at a desk, a bit trickier if you drive for a living!

I went with PF for 3 weeks I think, took it easy during the pain and came out the other side. I recommend that you stop running, walking or anything else involving being vertical. I shall have to look back for more detail. Be careful as it can get a hold real bad. i |
