Outlook (Prognosis) Nonsurgical treatments almost always improve the pain. Treatment can last from several months to 2 years before symptoms get better. Most people feel better within 6 to 18 months. Some people need surgery to relieve the pain. [ufhealth.org]

Several factors including the small number of identified cases, the lack of large clinical studies, and the possibility of other unknown influencing factors prevent physicians from developing an accurate picture of associated symptoms and prognosis. [rarediseases.org]

So I know from both personal and professional experience that the prognosis isn’t always good. When the going gets tough, patients need to know their options inside and out. [painscience.com]

Prognosis About 80% of plantar fasciitis cases resolve spontaneously by 12 months; 5% of patients end up undergoing surgery for plantar fascia release because all conservative measures have failed. [emedicine.medscape.com]

While the precise etiology is not completely understood, it is thought to be due in part to microtrauma and inflammation from prolonged standing, walking, or running in conjunction with contributing risk factors noted above. [nursingcenter.com]

For this reason, doctors usually do not give preventive antibiotics to close contacts of someone with necrotizing fasciitis. Good Wound Care Helps Prevent Skin Infections Use soap and water to clean all minor cuts and injuries. [cdc.gov]
