Plantar Fasciitis is extremely painful. I had it about for 8 months. I had to stretch my foot every morning before getting out of bed. For about 5 minutes. Used my hand to pull the ball of foot back towards my knee. Keep doing it. It takes awhile to heal. If it isPlantar Fasciitis.

tuna isn't farm raised. And they follow warm water currents coming out of the south. I can my own tuna. If you buy veggies out of grocery stores do you know what the farmer uses to control bugs and weeds from this country and other countries.
