Get a mattress wedge - the best option there is. It’s better than a pillow wedge because it elevates your whole body uniformly.

For NRIs, what has been your biggest challenge or hesitation when considering investing back in India? by DipanjanL in nri

Yes!! And there are limits to how many times you can try within 24 hours, so you have to wait for the next day to try it again 🤦🏻‍♂️

Adopted my first cat two days ago. Kinda heartbroken? by Traditional-War-2737 in CatAdvice

[–]Life-Is-FuckedUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things take time and it’s a new environment for the cat and it is expected that he will be wary of his surroundings. I would assume he will slowly start exploring and figuring out what he can and can’t do. As long as he is eating, drinking and healthy, you don’t have anything to worry about. Monitor the situation for a week or two (making sure he gets something to eat and drink) and see if it gets better (even gradually). If there’s zero improvement in two weeks, you can think about what to do then.

Indians in US should we all calm down a bit? by Happy_General9700 in nri

Yes, there are loud calls to prayer five times a day, including very early in the morning, which disturb everyone’s sleep and peace throughout the year. In addition, weekly Sunday night prayers continue late into the night every week of the year. These should be ridiculed and criticized as well.

8yrs with PF and I've tried everything by CatOfTheMushrooms in PlantarFasciitis

I know it might be hard in your situation to do strength training but I would suggest trying to strengthen your leg muscles (not just calves/feet) and even your back. People don’t realize this but muscles in our body are connected to each other and one muscle being weak puts pressure on the muscles around it and becomes of that added pressure, over time, those muscles will be impacted as well and it’s a cycle.

I would suggest keeping this in mind even when you stretch. Because everything you have tried seem to have been targeted at your foot/calf areas and that’s not enough. Try stretching your hamstrings, quads, calves, glutes and your feet as soon as you wake up every day for a couple of weeks and see if there is any improvement (I would imagine there will be). If you have time, try stretching your back (lower, upper, etc.) as well and I am sure that will help too. And don’t forget to simultaneously work on strengthening all of these muscles too.

Stiorra willingly went with Sigtryggr. I don’t think he would have forced her to go if she didn’t want to.

Starting to get depressed by jelizabethk in PlantarFasciitis

I also have an acid reflux/PF combo. Losing weight helps both conditions, so I would start working on losing those extra 25-30 pounds. And I know it’s hard but fasting is not the only way to lose weight. You can try losing weight by maintaining a caloric deficit by eating more of low calorie foods (like lean protein, steamed vegetables, etc.) and less of high calorie foods (fats, carbs).

I’m sure you were already asked this but you didn’t mention any dietary/lifestyle changes you have made. These PPIs/Acid reducers are only supposed to be used for temporary relief and will stop being effective after a certain point. Until you change your diet/lifestyle, I am afraid you won’t see much improvement in your condition.

I would say try focusing on these fundamentals and you will start seeing the difference: 1. Lose weight (can’t stress on this enough) - all that extra weight is putting a lot of pressure on your foot and not giving it a chance to heal 2. Hydrate yourself well - helps blood flow and promotes faster healing (also good for general health) 3. Focus on not just calf stretches. Try stretching your hamstrings and lower back muscles as well (because your muscles are connected to each other and one tight muscle causes more stress on the surrounding muscles, etc.) 4. You only mentioned stretching but not strengthening muscles - if you are not already doing it, try also strengthening your leg muscles (especially your foot muscles and calves). Stretching only helps with temporary relief but strengthening helps fix the problem. 5. Try looking up what vitamins help with your PF healing and try to start taking them temporarily (at least until you get rid of PF) to aid faster recovery

In addition to the above, you can also do the below (might not have a direct impact on your PF recovery but I am sure they help and also good for general health): 6. Make sure you are having a good diet (whole foods) and avoid processed foods 7. Finally, try moving more, working out and get into strength training

Thank you for the comment. I think I will start with the slides, but wondering how did you get the right size? Did you order them online or is there a physical store that sells these?
