Plantar fasciitis, shin splints and stitch- evidence based practice

Inside Health on Radio 4 this afternoon had some interesting evidence about the causes and best treatment for the above. It also taught me how to say fasciitis

Sorry I missed it Helen

[Hidden in reply to Agelesslass]

It's on I-player or 'BBC Sounds' or Apple Apps, so very available

[Tartancat Graduate10]

Well you can't leave us in suspense like that! How DO you pronounce it? 😁

[Hidden in reply to Tartancat]

Like Sean Connery perhaps

[Hidden in reply to Tartancat]

Obviously I don't mean it is pronounced "sean connery"

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

made myself laugh too much at my own joke

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I think it’s funny too! 🤣🤣

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

LOL!

[Tartancat Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I can't reply, I'm laughing too much!

[Tbae in reply to Hidden]

😂😂.

Did not know how to say it neither, including the other bit.

Thanks for the clue, at least I think I could have a go now.

🙈😂😂

👊💥🏃‍♀️🌟👏👏

This suspense cliff hanger is killing me! A clue, Helen, we need a clue!!!

[Hidden in reply to mrrun]

Put on your best Sean Connery accent and give it a go- liberating

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

who knew injury was so funny

[mrrun Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Fah-šeetis, ah?

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Isn’t it Fash-she-itis? That’s how I say it, but I’d be happy to be corrected!

[Hidden in reply to cheekychipmunks]

I think you got the prize

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Boom! 💥 Thank you! 👏👏

[Snuffy_T Graduate10]

Just listened to that thanks for the tip...! I've been dealing PF , think it's on the wain. Been doing the strength exercise. Interesting they didn't mention stretching ?

[Hidden in reply to Snuffy_T]

well the tippie toe thing is stretching maybe??

[Anren Graduate10]

I had it before running when I did just yoga, my lovely yoga teacher gave me the exercise he mentions but done on a step so your foot has more range going lower too and to go barefoot rather than flip-flops.

Mine went within a few weeks and has never come back. I run in minimalist shoes and I spend a lot of summer barefoot now.

Yes I have seen other people mention the step exercise on here. Glad to here that you have over come it. Never had it myself but sounds very painful and annoying!
