...when I experienced plantar fasciitis back when I used to run and skip rope a lot, the only thing that helped was orthotics. This was 30 years ago, so I had to go to a podiatrist and get them custom cast. Now I use the heat moldable ones in all my shoes and along with some yoga and stretching, it's good without drugs.
I had just the beginnings of heel spurs visible on the x-rays, never had any surgery, and they eventually seem to have gone away...or at least don't bother me any more. Like someone said, it took six months or a year and I had to stop running for a while. Running is stupid anyway.
