What is the best anti inflammatory for plantar fasciitis?
Asked 4 years ago
Hello, my poor husband suffers from plantar fasciitis pain, but we can't get property treatment just yet. I want to get him some anti-inflammatories to help bring relief. Do you have any suggestions?

Plantar fasciitis pain responds well to ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB) and naproxen sodium (Aleve). These can ease any pain, swelling, and inflammation. For true healing to occur, you must address the underlying cause. Also, anti-inflammatories must be used in moderation to avoid GI irritation and other side effects.
