Planter fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain in adults. Planter fasciitis is frequently seen among athletes playing various sports. However, it is more prevalent in professional runner. The Biomechanical stresses including the increase in the intensity, frequency or the time frame of weight bearing activities that subject athlete's feet to continuous impact loads, surfaces with inadequate cushioning or improper shoe replacement are some of extrinsic risk factors associated with planter fasciitis.3-D ankle mobility exercises are improvised for treatment of plantar fasciitis, these comprise D2 diagonal PNF leg patterns, comprising of flexion-abduction-internal rotation and extension-adduction-external rotation. Heel drop exercise training is another useful intervention used for treating PF; the protocol consists transferring their body weight onto the forefoot of their dominant legs while slightly flexing their ankles. To get back to baseline, the non-dominant leg is given more weight, and the dominant leg's knee was remained fully extended to maintain higher gastrocnemius activation. A Randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Pakistan Sports Board and Boston Physiotherapy Clinic Lahore through consecutive sampling technique on patients which will be allocated through opaque sealed enveloped into Group A and Group B. Group A will be treated with 3-D ankle mobility exercises and Group B will be treated with eccentric heel drop training. Outcome measures tools will be conducted through NPRS, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) and The VISA-A questionnaire: An index of the severity of Achilles tendinopathy after four weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 25. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro-wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.
The purpose of the study is to compare the effects of Hamstring stretching versus conventional treatment for plantar fasciitis. A randomized control trial was conducted at Cena Medical Center Rawalpindi and Midland Doctors Institute Muzaffarabaad. The sample size was 64 calculated through open-epi tool. The participants were divided into two groups, interventional and control group each having 32 participants. The study duration was 1 year. Sampling technique applied was Purposive sampling for recruitment and group randomization using flip coin method. Only 25to 45 years participants with plantar fasciitis along with hamstring tightness were included in the study. Tools used in this study are Goniometer, Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for pain, and Functional Foot Index (FFI) for pain and disability. Data was collected before treatment at baseline and after 1st and 2nd week of the application of interventions. Data analyzed through SPSS version 25.
Patients suffering from Plantar Fasciitis were randomized into three groups: the first group underwent infiltration of Collagen Hydrolyzed Peptides, the second one underwent the ESWT treatment, the third one underwent a combination of the two treatments.
The study is randomized and single -blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International university Lahore.Participants who will meet criteria will be requested to give verbal consent and to sign written consent form. After signing consent form participants will be allocated to the group A and Group B by using computerized generated randomization. Group A will receive ultrasound then Active release technique while group B will receive ultrasound and Positional release technique for 4 weeks. Treatment sessions will be 12 sessions, 3 sessions per week on alternative days for 4 weeks
Plantar fasciitis (PF), a leading cause of persistent heel pain, results in almost a million physician visits annually. Conservative treatment is often the first line of management with insoles being frequently prescribed. While multiple studies have compared insoles based on the degree of customization to foot contour, the literature is lacking in data comparing insoles based on their material. In this randomized clinical trial, we compared the early effects of polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU), and carbon fiber insoles in the treatment of PF, using a set of patient-reported outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of 8 weeks of foot rehabilitation exercises in conjunction with wearing minimalist shoes in individuals with plantar fasciopathy, compared to only performing foot rehabilitation exercises. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Will individuals with plantar fasciopathy be able to reduce their pain and improve their self-reported function by performing rehabilitation exercises and wearing minimalist shoes, compared to those only performing rehabilitation exercises? - Will individuals with plantar fasciopathy be able to increase their intrinsic foot muscle strength and size, their balance, and gait biomechanics by performing rehabilitation exercises and wearing minimalist shoes, compared to those only performing rehabilitation exercises? - What characteristics of individuals with plantar fasciopathy make them most suited to succeed in a protocol of performing rehabilitation exercises and wearing minimalist shoes? Participants will be asked to come into the lab at the start of the intervention and after 8 weeks, where the following will be assessed: - Patient-reported outcomes - Foot morphology - Intrinsic foot muscle strength - Balance - Gait biomechanics For the intervention, participants in both groups will perform the same rehabilitation exercises, including: - Massage to the bottom of the foot - Calf-raises - Calf and foot stretches
Necrotizing Fasciitis (NF) is a potentially life-threatening soft tissue infection. This study is comparing acellular fish skin graft (AFS) to standard of care allograft (AHC) in the treatment of NF. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes and time until autograft take in patients that were treated with AHC or AFS prior to permanent autografting to treat NF.
Type of this study: Prospective randomized controlled study. Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis receiving Exportacorporeal Shock Therapy (ESWT). To compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis who received KT application in addition to ESWT treatment. To compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis receiving placebo application. 90 volunteers will be included in the study as ESWT (n=30), placebo ESWT (n=30), ESWT and KT (n=30) application groups. How effective is ESWT, ESWT and Kinesiotape versus placebo ESWT acutely in the treatment of plantar fasciitis?
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a conservative treatment method that has been widely used in musculoskeletal diseases in recent years. Its mechanism is to provide hyperstimulation and vascularity increase with the help of acoustic waves focused on a specific area, thus accelerating healing and reducing pain. This method, which is frequently used in plantar fasciitis, is frequently applied to patients whose symptoms persist despite first-line treatment strategies. Ozone injections have been frequently used in musculoskeletal disorders in recent years and are mainly used in osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, tendon, fascia and ligament injuries, vertebra and disc pathologies and neuropathic pain. Analgesic effect on musculoskeletal system (release of endorphins, activation of antinociceptive system, reduction of edema) anti-inflammatory effect (regulation of cytokine release, reduction of superoxide radicals, modulation of prostaglandin), regulation of local oxygenation and circulation, tissue repair (neutralization of preteolytic enzymes, fibroblast proliferation) and has an antimicrobial effect. Although it is also used in the treatment of plantar fasciitis, there are limited articles on this subject in the literature. In our study, it was aimed to compare the effectiveness of ESWT and ozone injection therapy, which are two treatment strategies with regenerative action mechanisms, in patients with resistant plantar fasciitis.
