Pain in the lower front part of the foot
For the last 3 months I have been suffering from muscle pain near the arch of the foot(plantar fasciitis). I went to see 2 doctors but both of them said that this issue will be resolved only by exercising. Hence I have been doing foot exercises, soaked feet in warm water, rolling foot on the frozen water bottle. But none of it seems to alleviate the issue. Any help is appreciated
