摘要

Plantar fasciitis is a term used to describe inflammation that originates at the medial calcaneal tubercle and most often affects the athletic and sedentary populations. Accounting for 15 % of all adult foot complaints, plantar fasciitis has been asserted as the most common foot injury treated by clinicians. Plantar fasciitis is more often a degenerative or noninflammatory condition and is more appropriately termed plantar fasciosis in most cases.
