“…Our results are justified by the study conducted in Saudi Arabia by Goweda et al, documenting 1.72 times higher risk of plantar fasciitis with increasing age and it is most frequently found in middle age group of 40-60 years. 15 These findings are discordant with Alqahtani et al that reported higher percentages of plantar fasciitis among teachers of older age group with high load of teaching sessions. 9 Previous studies have reported increased risk of plantar fasciitis with increasing BMI and showed positive association between these.…”

Objective: To find the frequency of plantar fasciitis among females teachers in Sialkot and to explore the relationship of heel pain due to plantar fasciitis with age, body mass index (BMI), type of shoes wearing and standing hours.Methodology: This cross-sectional study was the project of Sialkot College of physiotherapy (SCPT). It was conducted in February to March 2018 after taking ethical approval from institutional review board of SCPT (IRB-SCPT DPT-115-2018). Sample size was 150 subjects. Female teachers of age ranged 25-60years ,who fulfill inclusion criteria were enrolled by convenience sampling technique from the Sialkot based colleges. Data was collected by administering Plantar Fasciitis Pain/Disability Scale (PFPS) questionnaire among the female teachers. Data was analyzed by SPSS22.Results: This study was comprised of 150 participants with mean age30.69±5.44years. Mean of height, weight and BMI were 1.63± 0.34, 60.17±11.71, 23.68±4.39 respectively. Mean±SD of visual analogue scale (VAS) and total PFPS scores were 5.78±2.461 and 36.5±13.5 respectively. Of total population 46.3% of subjects have plantar fasciitis. Middle sole of foot was the most affected area by plantar fasciitis (PF), followed by ball of foot, heel and toe with subsequent values52(34.7%),43(28.7%),37(24.7%) and 18(12%) respectively The significant difference in mean VAS score for pain intensity was found among the subjects with and without PF (p value 0.000*). Plantar fasciitis was frequently found in subjects with higher age group than younger ones (p value 0.000*). Current results showed that 31% of total subjects with PF were used to wear flat shoes, whereas only 16 percent wear heel shoes and 23% were using both type of shoes (heel& flat). However this association was not found to be significant on regression analysis. Current results of regression analysis also did not find any significant impact of BMI (p value 0.50) and standing hours (p value 0.804) and types of shoes (p value 0.620) on the development of plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis was positively associated with age (p value 0.002). Conclusion: Plantar fasciitis is found among teachers, commonly affecting middle sole area of the foot. PF is positively associated with age; however standing hours and BMI was not associated with it.

Introduction: Plantar fasciitis is a degenerative syndrome that causes inflammation of the plantar fascia due to repetitive trauma and excessive stretching, which can cause a tear in the plantar fascia. This study aimed to determine the possible risk factors that affect the incidence of plantar fasciitis. Methods: This study design was the literature review. This study searched journals through Google Scholar and PubMed databases related to plantar fasciitis or the factors that influence plantar fasciitis. Results: In general, the risk factors for plantar fasciitis are classified into intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Inherent factors can be age, gender, and body mass index (BMI), while outside factors are the use of shoes and duration or standing time. Conclusions: A high BMI is a more dominant intrinsic factor in causing plantar fasciitis. Meanwhile, the use of shoes and the duration of time of standing were the more dominant external factors for the incidence of plantar fasciitis.

“…Approximately 10% of the US population complains of the incidence of pain in plantar fasciitis cases and results in one million professional visits for plantar fasciitis treatment each year. In the United States, plantar fasciitis accounts for more than 600,000 outpatients each year (Goweda, 2015). Based on data obtained from monthly reports at the medical rehabilitation clinic of the Bhakti Wira Tamtama Army Hospital, Semarang, Central Java, in 2017 there were 67 patients who experienced cases of plantar fasciitis from January to December 2018.…”

“…But in someone who has an abnormal foot, namely flat foot, it can occur at the age of less than 40 years old (Setyawan, 2016). The results of research conducted by Suzan stated that this plantar fasciitis accounts for 41.5% of problems in musculoskeletal cases in every tertiary care center in California, United States and has more than 600,000 outpatients each year (Goweda, 2015).…”

Background: Plantar fasciitis is an inflammatory problem that occurs in the foot area that causes pain. Its prevalence rates range from 4% to 7% in the elderly population, 8% in athletes and up to 25% in runners. One of the treatments used to reduce the degree of pain is the use of foot orthosis. A number of related articles stated that the use of foot orthosis can reduce the degree of pain in plantar fasciitis patients. The purpose of this study was to estimate the magnitude of the effect of using foot orthosis on pain reduction in plantar fasciitis patients by conducting a meta-analysis on the same number of articles. Subjects and Method: The meta-analysis was carried out by systematically reviewing the same number of articles from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. By using the search keywords "foot orthosis" OR "FO" AND "custom foot orthosis" AND "foot pain" AND "plantar fasciitis" AND "plantar fasciopathy" AND "effect foot orthosis for plantar fasciitis" AND "treatment for plantar fasciitis" A "randomized controlled trial". The intervention given was the use of a foot orthosis with a comparison without using a foot orthosis with the study subject of plantar fasciitis patients. The study outcome was pain reduction. The article used is a full text article with a randomized controlled trial design that reports the value of the effect size (mean and standard deviations). Articles were collected using the PRISMA flow chart and analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 application with random effect models. Results: A meta-analysis of 7 randomized controlled trial studies from Brazil, Virginia, Turkey, Germany, China, and Australia suggested that the use of foot orthosis was -0.54 times better at reducing pain in plantar fasciitis patients compared to those without foot orthosis (ES= -0.54; 95% CI -1.11 to 0.03; p= 0.06). Heterogeneity I2= 82%. Conclusion: Foot orthosis reduces pain in plantar fasciitis patients compared to those without foot orthosis Keywords: Plantar fasciitis, pain, foot orthosis Correspondence: Atika Febri Anggriani, Masters Program in Public Health.
