But I actually kept digging and found it probably is actually Plantar Fasciitis. The ball at the bottom of my foot is killing me.
I had this and it still rears its ugly head from time to time, but the stretch quells it quick, fast, and in a hurry.
It's a fluid build up in the ball of your foot and a tightening of the tendons in the heel area. The stretch relieves this for the most part.G'Day Mate

Mine is hurting at the medial plantar fascia in this pic.

A dr. friend of mine was telling me about a new procedure he was looking into that uses a syringe and an ultrasonic device to break up the fluid/fats in the problem area and then suck them out. That might be something to ask your dr. about.G'Day Mate

FWIW, my wife was stretching my foot/calf one night and I told her to hit my foot a little to see if that helped any and I finally got her hitting hard enough that something broke up and my foot felt 200% better.
Some light to moderate percussion might help yours out since you can't stretch it too much.G'Day Mate

Turf toe sux. I have it in both big toes. With every step you experience pain in your big toe - the joint that connects the toe to your foot. Mine started in one foot about 6 years ago... occasional discomfort when walking or pushing off. It eventually became with every step. I had a surgery on that toe three years ago - the procedure is called a Cheilectomy, which is where they break that joint and clean out bone spurs causing the problem. The surgery gave me more range of motion but the pain is still there with every step. Two years ago I developed the same pain in the other big toe. Haven't been to the doctor about that one yet. What helps a lot is to get steel inserts an place them in the bottom of your shoes. This prevents that joint flexing as much with each step. Google "turf toe inserts". Hope that helps, man. Sure hope you don't have this.
If any comfort, you get used to the pain and eventually don't think about it that much. Kind of like tinnitus (the getting used to it part).
