2) roll out the tendon using a lacrosse ball.

Are you referring to rolling out the tendon in the arch of the foot?

Correct. A lot of guys will use a frozen water bottle. Breaks up the adhesions and the ice reduces inflammation.

I’ve found that a golf ball has been the most effective for rolling out under my feet.

Which one do you use?

Run Pain Relief.

I go through about two to three pairs a year. I put them in everything I own. I also use the heel shim that comes with them. Some of my boots (Timberland - Irish Setter - Danner) I can just remove the factory insole and go at my usual size. My sport shoes that don't have a removable insole I have to size up. I have not had pain since.

I suffered for a whole year until the third Podiatrist I saw turned me on to them. He said use these and also cross train to give your feet a rest. Hike then Bike.....

I wound up having to put my left leg in a cast for a month in the summer of 19. Killed the bull in my avatar in October after that so that was good lol.

By far the biggest thing, and I still do it every day, is stretching my calves every chance I get. No curb or door jamb goes unused throughout my day.
