First need to diagnose properly whether it is planter fasciitis or any other thing.
If it is really planter fasciitis and conservative treatment is not working adequately then regenerative therapy injection 1-2 sittings can help you with good success rate.
Please visit pain management experts who is performing PRP therapy or regenerative therapy in your nearby area.
Thank you
