I don’t have and have never suffered PF. However I have been wearing prosthetics in my shoes and boots since 1993 for knee pain.

I originally had them hand crafted by an NHS podiatrist. Two years ago the knee pain started up again so I went back to a NHS podiatrist. Maybe because of cutbacks but this time all they did was stick a piece of plastic to the prosthetic. No discussion was made about their condition or if I needed new insoles made. I was most unimpressed.

However I did discover that the original podiatrist I saw in 1993 had now gone private so I went to him.

Long story shorter, new prosthetics hand made and no pain. Sadly this was not free.

It set me back £150 + consultation fees. Worth every penny though.

Just in case you could not get any help from NHS podiatrist.
