If you had a cast boot previously and kept it, I recommend you put it on. If you had a fiberglass cast, ask around if any friends have one you can borrow until you see your doctor. If nothing is available, then consider using crutches for weight bearing. Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation are a good idea also until you see your doctor.

The HealWell Night splint is designed to comfortably position the foot in a controlled amount of dorsiflexion to provide a gentle stretch to the plantar fascia and Achilles Tendon. This gentle stretch helps reduce the muscle contracture, inflammation and associated pain. It has also been clinically proven to reduce symptoms of plantar fasciitis.
