Will Plantar Fibroma shrink if we link its initial growth to vitamin c intake?

Asked 5 years ago

So here is an interesting thought. What are the odds that the growth of Plantar Fibroma is linked to the amount of Vitamin C that the body has? Do you think the plantar fibroma would shrink if there was less Vitamin C in the body?

There is an indirect relationship between vitamin C levels in the body and fibroma formation. Vitamin C promotes collagen production. When the body produces excess collagen, fibroma formation follows suit. So cutting down vitamin c levels may reduce collagen formation and subsequently reduce plantar fibroma formation.
