BitlyBitly Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks for Women & Men - Best Ankle Compression Sleeve, Nano Brace for Everyday Use - Provides Arch Support & Heel Pain Relief (White, Small)

My plantar fasciitis was severe and took over a year to fully resolve. I tried braces, sleeves, creams and eventually I saw a podiatrist. These are the second best thing that I used to help me with my plantar fasciitis. The best thing was my podiatrist and the steroid shot I received. These sleeves however, reduced and eventually eliminated my pain while walking. I tried a couple other brands they turned out to be worthless, but these work great. I would not wear any sleeve while sleeping.The formula for resolution = stretching + ice packs + proper insoles/shoes + plantar fasciitis sleeve + steroid shot (if the previous listed do not work on their own)The night splint and the boot for sleeping were a waste of time and money. It is also impossible to sleep well with them on. It always hurts worse in the morning and having your foot held in a specific position over night will not make it heal faster. Stretch your foot before you walk on it that does reduce the pain.

I have been suffering with plantar fasciitis for about six weeks now and have developed a program for myself that includes Epson Salts soaking, Power Step orthotic insoles in high quality hiking boots and reduced walking/zero running. I have not felt any significant improvement in my condition since developing this annoying and limiting malady. I have not yet attempted to tape my own foot but I was just about to try that therapy too.Last week I ordered the Bitly Compression Foot Sleeves as an alternative to taping. The product arrived as promised and when I removed it from the package, I was disappointed by the light weight nature of the fabric as well as construction. I thought, "my socks apply more compression than this!"I immediately put the sleeve on my foot and the initial sensation was almost an audible laugh because I thought, "there's now way this thing can have any effect." Two hours later I was noticing some relief and 10 hours later it was remarkable. That first night I chose not to wear the sleeve to bed but realized the next morning that that idea may have been a mistake. Last night I wore the sleeve all night and the relief has continued through the night into this morning.I had contacted the supplier about my concerns the morning that I received my product and they promptly emailed me, within four hours, with an offer of another sized pair of sleeves. While I love to be the recipient of good customer service, I thought it prudent to wait at least 48 hours before reacting to something with which I had zero experience. I'm glad I waited and I'm pleased to say that, now, I'm a believer.If you are suffering from plantar fasciitis, I strongly recommend that you add these sleeves to your healing program. I am not a medical professional and I have not realized complete healing, but this morning I can take a step with almost no pain. The price is well worth the relief. I'm still walking carefully and will continue with the goal of complete healing but these sleeves are now the cornerstone upon which I build my hope for full recovery.Amazing!

I retired from distance running five years ago at 42 with eight marathons and many, many halfs all within a six year period. Towards the end I struggled with PF and keeping it under control. Several attempts to come out of running retirement were sidelined due to PF flare ups as soon as I tried to begin running any meaningful mileage. This time around PF returned after week three, desperate for a fix I went to Amazon and found these socks. I am the super skeptic, but I was desperate and the cost was negligible. I wear them to bed every night and wear custom insoles in my running shoes and DR Schools PF in my everyday shoes. My PF is completely under control now, I run without pain, I wake up and can walk without pain. I am truly amazed something so simple has solved my struggle with PF. I've been running now for four months, up to 25 miles a week. My life is back in balance now that running is back in my life. Last week I won my age group competing in my first organized running event in years. Thank you!

I've only had two episodes in my life of plantar fasciitis. Both came out of nowhere, no warning. I have a pretty high threshold for pain, and with plantar, it is off the scale. The dead giveaway, is that it's always worst in the morning, right after waking up. Agony. There are things you can do to minimize the duration and severity, but do it right away. Luckily for me, each time I had an episode, I dealt with it immediately, and each time it was gone in about 3 days. Specific exercises for the feet, control inflammation (I used turmeric spice and penetrex cream), foot soak in epsom salts, and use compression socks. The Bitly socks provide INSTANT relief from the agonizing pain, and allowed me to function during the day, which would have been impossible otherwise. Upon putting them on, 80% of the pain was immediately relieved.As I said, my two episodes of plantar were thankfully brief, so I don't know how these socks hold up in the long run with washing. But to tell the truth, even if they were throw away one use only (which they are not) it would be worth the money for the pain relief they provided. If you suffer from plantar, get these socks for pain relief. And when the plantar comes on, treat it immediately and aggressively for a quicker recovery time.

These are great, as expected but one has hole in heel. I'm so desperate for relief I'm keeping them but it is disappointing.UPDATE: THEY FOLLOWED UP WITH ME ABOUT MY PURCHASE IN GENERAL AND I SHARED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN ONE SOCK. A COUPLE DAYS LATER A NEW PAIR ARRIVED. EXCELLENT PRODUCT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! AWESOME!!!

Suffering for years with pain and numbness in feet have had all kinds of medical treatment. Nothing worked. Tried these as last resort, absolutely does the trick. No numbness and tingling and very much reduces the pain. Dont know how it works so well but it was just what I needed.

Saggy excuse of a compression sock. Wasn't going to review but had to since the company are not interested in answering my emails. I'm a size 9 so ordered the appropriate size as per instructions, I'm neither chunky or slinky in the foot department so I'd say I'm straight down the middle average. I contacted the seller who replied almost immediately, amazing and really impressive I thought. I provided all the information they requested including a photo and since then I haven't heard a thing despite sending two more emails asking whats going on. Come on, pull your socks up!!!

They leave a red indented mark where they are too tight on the upper part of your foot where it meets your leg

I only bought one pair to try , brilliant, I will buy more, I have "drop foot" and trying anything to help get better, I have worn them in bed too, glad I bought them.

Having bought various supports for my feet and ankles over the years and been disappointed, I am so glad I tried these. They are completely different - the material is much better quality ; more comfortable and flexible, they are easier to put on and can be worn with various footwear. Despite seeming thinner and appearing as if they would offer less support than others, they are actually very good and help with foot pain and mobility issues. These would appear to benefit people suffering from a number of issues with their feet ( obviously seeking medical advice first ). Expensive to get the larger sizes....but worth it in my opinion.
