What is EPF Surgery?

Posted by MiMi on 3/07/99
I had this type of surgery done in October and feel 95% better. In fact I have been pain free all week and was even able to wear my dress shoes back and forth from work this week.

This type of surgery is done by a podiatrist. He makes an incision in the right side of your heel and comes out on the left side. the incision is suppposed to relieve the presure on the facia which is cut during the surgery. Recovery is at least 4-5 weeks with crutches for 2 week. I would do it again tomorrow if I had to. I tried everything else and nothing else worked for me. If you have it done make sure that your dr. is experienced in this procedure.
