My daughter had 12 or 13 plantar warts at the bottom of her right foot. Took her to orthopedic doctor and at first they had no clue what it was as they were deep inside, this was approx 25 years ago. Then they appeared on the surface, podiatrist froze them all off in about 3 visits and she is without them now. I cannot imagine how much a hot knife hurt your son's foot. I would take him soon to doctor/podiatrist and make sure there is not an infection brewing there. He may need antibiotics. Wow, cannot believe a grown man would do that to a child. Glad you are contacting your attorney about this one.

Plantar fasciitis
I came up with plantar fasciitis on my right foot last year and had to switch to the left foot for the pedal. It really is not that hard to switch and you can always go back to your right foot when it clears up. Don't wait until the pain gets really bad because plantar fasciitis is a pain in the you know what to get rid of. Just my 2 cents:)

I did - they called it plantar fasciitis
Here's a link for an explanation--if that's what it is, sounds like it though, especially that it goes away when you stop using the pedal for a time. Time to switch feet! Commonly called a heel spur. It's possible that it can heal up and go away most of the time.

I got common plantar nerve neuroma

in my third toe. It bends towards the 2nd toe and if you try to spread the toes, it curves unnaturally and does not bend too well. I used foam spacers for it and it did straighten out somewhat and go partially back into the correct position.

I also get swelling in both ankles and legs plus tingling and numbness sometimes. I have to keep getting up and moving around a bit for that to go away.

So on AMA web site it says plantar flexion is two words? Let it be written?
Is the AMA the Holy Grail, the Constitution and Clark Gable's footprint(HUH)?

Is it worse in the morning? Mine was plantar fasciitis
Aha, so I'm not the only one!
Weird, because it is usually caused by overuse or strenuous activity but in my case my doctor thought maybe because my feet were being stuck in the same position all the time while transcribing. NSAIDS and a night brace designed for plantar fasciitis work well for me. I had to wear the brace for about 4-6 weeks when first diagnosed. Now
I have to use the brace for flare-ups, but it clears in just a few days.
