Thanks for adding such a remarks. Accept my apologies if my reply seems so harsh. But oh my goodness! You are too harsh and aggressive replying me. I was just proposing an idea the most senior physios should try to review the current techniques used today. There is no idea to hitting some one.
Any way where will we place the electrotherapy portion of physiotherapy as physiotherapists spend a lot of time during their clinical training in the field of electrotherapy. And it will be very much frustrating for them to find that these modalities of electrotherapy are contradictory.
Let’s have a look over the possible causes ofplantar fasciitis.
Repetitive micotrauma due to excessive stretch of plantar fascia leading to chronic inflammation of plantar fascia and degeneration of plantar fibres..
Seronegative spondylarthropathies
Over use injuries
Obesity
Biomechanical fault that causes abnormal pronation. For example, a patient with a flexible rear foot varus may at first appear to have a normal foot structure but, on weight-bearing, may display significant pronation. The talus will plantar flex and adduct as the patient stands, while the calcaneus everts.
Tibia vara, ankle equinus, rearfoot varus, forefoot varus, compensated forefoot valgus and limb length inequality, can cause an abnormal pronatory force.
Extrinsic factors of plantar fasciitis include training errors, improper footwear, and unyielding surfaces.
Intrinsic factors include pes cavus or pes planus, decreased plantar flexion strength, reduced flexibility of the plantar flexor muscles, excess pronation, and torsional malalignments.
So should we not try to manage these possible causes of plantar fasciitis?
