Dr. Alan Shih at Head to Toe Healthcare, PLC in Southern Arizona provides alternative approaches to treating plantar fasciitis and neuromas, two debilitating foot conditions causing persistent heel pain. He advocates for surgical decompression and Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) as alternative treatments to traditional surgery. Plantar fasciitis is often treated with surgery to cut the plantar fascia, but Dr. Shih believes this compromises foot stability. For neuromas, he recommends surgical decompression to preserve nerve function rather than cutting out a section of the nerve. RFA is a minimally invasive alternative to surgery, providing relief without the risk of complications associated with broader nerve destruction. Dr. Shih’s approach offers hope to individuals seeking relief from persistent foot pain.
