Corticosteroid Injection
for Plantar Fasciitis
A corticosteroid injection administered by a doctor into the inflamed plantar fascia for significant short-term pain relief in persistent cases.
How it works
Corticosteroids suppress local inflammatory mediators (prostaglandins, cytokines) at the injection site, rapidly reducing pain and swelling.
What to watch for
Short-term benefit only — effects often wear off within 3 months. Risk of plantar fascia rupture with repeated injections. Should not be the first treatment tried. Requires medical administration.
