Plantar Fasciitis in Sport
2016
Plantar fasciitis is a common musculoskeletal condition among sport-active people. Careful history taking and appropriate clinical examination is essential to exclude other causes of plantar heel pain. Following a step-wise approach is recommended in plantar fasciitis treatment, as it is usually self-limiting condition. Inadequate response to non-operative treatment and persistence of symptoms more than 6 months may warrant surgical intervention. Provision of health instructions to athletes would help in prevention of plantar fasciitis. Athletes should watch for their training mistakes and should maintain good muscular strength and balance.
