The Catabolic Nature of Corticosteroids on Collagen
Cortisone is a powerful catabolic hormone. While it violently suppresses local inflammation and eliminates pain for 4 to 8 weeks, it simultaneously inhibits fibroblast proliferation, halts healthy collagen synthesis, and degrades the extracellular matrix of the plantar fascia.
The Devastating Complication: Plantar Fat Pad Atrophy
Repeated cortisone injections cause the natural, shock-absorbing calcaneal fat pad to permanently shrink and die. Once this fat cushion is gone, the bare calcaneus strikes the floor directly with every step, creating permanent, untreatable heel pain.
Doctor's Warning: Do Not Sacrifice Your Fat Pad
Cortisone merely numbs the alarm without putting out the fire. Preserve your natural collagen and heal your heel through mechanical, drugless reflexology.
Complete Plantar Fascia Rupture
Medical studies indicate a significantly elevated rate of complete plantar fascial rupture following steroid shots. In contrast, clinical reflexology restores natural tissue elasticity without introducing catabolic drugs into your foot.
