This McKesson Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint aids in the controlled application of a prolonged stretch on the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon to help reduce the morning pain and discomfort associated with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, foot drop, and heel pain by holding your foot in the dorsiflexion position; meaning the fascia is stretched out to help it from tensing up while you sleep to help you sleep more comfortably. This traditional-, boot-style night splint rests on the back of your leg, calf, and foot and features circumferential heel and posterior strapping to help prevent migration during sleep and increase overall effectiveness, and it is larger compared to the dorsal style which may cause difficulty walking if you frequently get up at night. This splint features a plastic outer shell with a soft, cool terry liner; pads on its calf and ankle straps for additional comfort; adjustable bilateral dorsiflexion straps to provide a custom amount of stretch to accommodate your needs; and a toe wedge for optional use when you require additional stretch on the plantar fascia. Plus, the hand-washable liner easily separates from the shell to maintain hygiene with nightly use while the rest of the splint may be wiped clean with warm water and hung to dry.
