Key Supplements
- Curcumin 1000-2000mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory)
- Omega-3 4-6g/day (reduces inflammation)
- Boswellia 500mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory, reduces pain)
- Bromelain 500mg 3x/day between meals (anti-inflammatory enzyme)
- MSM 2-4g/day (reduces pain, supports connective tissue)
- Vitamin C 2000mg/day (collagen synthesis, tissue repair)
Key Lab Markers
- X-ray foot (rules out stress fracture, shows heel spur in 50%—but spur doesn't cause pain, many people with spurs have no symptoms, many with plantar fasciitis have no spur)
- Ultrasound (shows plantar fascia thickening >4mm diagnostic, can measure thickness to track healing)
- MRI (if diagnosis uncertain—shows fascia inflammation, partial tear, rules out other causes—tarsal tunnel, nerve entrapment, stress fracture)
- Vitamin D
