I just developed a heel spur (plantar fasciitis), should i still go camping?

Hi everyone,
It seems like last night the sole or ball of my right foot was killing me. I felt like i bruised it or something. I woke up this morning and my right foot is now killing me when I walk. When I walk i feel a bad bruise like feeling throughout the ball of my foot. Anyways I have a 5 day 60 mile camping trip in four days. Should I skip the trip or will I be able to just deal with the pain? Right now I am so psyched about the trip, but I am scared of losing my balance or something due to the pain of the hike. Is there any way to get rid of this pain by then? Is this plantar fasciitis or did I just pull something? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi
    It sounds to me as if you just pulled something – although I am not an expert.
    I had plantar fasciitis and it felt different!
    Why won’t you get a professional diagnosis? – go to your doc.
    There is a good website that explains about plantar fasciitis, the symptoms and more in:

    Plantar fasciitis remission time is very long so it is better for you if it is not that.
    Take care & Good luck
