Historically, plantar fasciitis was associated with heel spurs, which were considered to be bony growth resulting from the pull of the plantar fascia.However, further studies have shown that a plantar heel spur does not indicate plantar fasciitis. The size of the calcaneal heel spur has no correl...

Plantar calcaneal spur is more common in women than in men(X:8.101, p30(X:7.698, p<0.021). Although the CIA angle was within normal limits in both groups, it was significantly lower in patients with PCS than in the control group(p <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference...
Background Plantar fasciitis due to calcaneal spur is a common cause of heel pain and functional disability, and its management presents a huge challenge for clinicians which results sometimes in unpleasant clinical outcomes. The efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) as an alternative ...
