[QUOTE="Boatcephus, post: 1709232, member: 6263"] I'm sorry I got in this thread late, but I still want to share what helped mine. First, I would wake up in the mornings and basically do this 'duck walk' around the room until my feet came around. Painful stuff. Hurt like heck to play tennis and later, just to walk. Those Dr Scholls inserts at Wal Mart are a freaking JOKE. They are worthless. A guy at a shoe store introduced me to the Birkenstock insoles. I use the Birko Balance ones. Instead of squishy worthless gel filled garbage, these are a rigid material, like cork. I used to think I needed something extra soft, but what you need is something rigid to keep your foot in the correct 'shape'. Now I have no pain in the mornings and can run and play tennis without that twisting pain. They seem to last me about 6 months, you will know when they wear out. They are about $60 most places, but there is one Ebay store that has them shipped for $40. Anyway, they make other types but the Birko Balance model worked great for me. I tried their other types but the Balance model has the high sides that help shape your foot. [url]http://www.amazon.com/Birkenstock-BirkoBalance-Arch-Support-Insoles/dp/B002Y4DA16[/url] I am eager to try some of the other solutions here. But before you get any injections, TRY the Birko Balance insoles. [/QUOTE]
