“…In agreement with other studies, we found that regional rheumatic pain disorders are common in patients with DM [14–16]. Higher prevalence of flexor tenosynovitis and anserine bursitis has been reported before for DM patients [15, 16].…”

The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence and factors associated with bursitis/tendonitis disorders in Puerto Ricans with diabetes mellitus (DM). A cross-sectional study was performed in 202 adult Puerto Ricans (100 DM patients and 102 non-diabetic subjects). For each participant, a complete medical history and a musculoskeletal exam were systematically performed. Socio-demographic parameters, health-related behaviors, comorbidities, and pharmacotherapy were determined for all subjects. For DM patients, disease duration, glycemic control, and DM long-term complications were also examined. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the factors associated with bursitis/tendonitis disorders. The mean (SD) age for DM patients and non-diabetic controls were 53.3 (12.9) and 50.0 (13.1) years; 64.0 and 64.7 % of DM patients and controls were females, respectively. Overall, the prevalence of bursitis/tendonitis was higher in DM patients than among non-diabetics (59.0 % vs. 29.4 %, p<0.01). In multivariate analyses, DM patients had 2.47 (95 % CI 1.05, 5.84) the odds of having bursitis/tendonitis as compared to non-diabetics. Specifically, DM patients had a higher frequency of flexor tenosynovitis, De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, lateral epicondylitis, medial epicondylitis, trochanteric bursitis, and anserine bursitis than non-diabetic subjects (p<0.05). Among DM patients, multivariate analyses showed that those with bursitis/tendonitis were more likely to be female [OR (95 % CI) 4.55 (1.42, 14.55)] and have peripheral vascular disease [OR (95 % CI) 8.48 (1.71, 41.93)]. In conclusion, bursitis/tendonitis disorders were common in this population of Hispanics with DM. Among DM patients, bursitis/tendonitis disorders were more frequent in women and those with long-term complications such as peripheral vascular disease.

“…Disability pension due to diseases of the circulatory system among people with diabetes is possibly directly associated with diabetes-related complications, such as coronary heart disease or stroke (17,25). Diabetes-related complications also include disorders of the musculoskeletal system, such as Dupuytren's contracture, carpal tunnel syndrome, neuropathic osteoartropathy, and osteoarthritis (18,26), which may even lead to permanent work disability, ie, disability pension. Finally, pre-existing conditions including diabetes explained why older age was associated with longer sickness absence following musculoskeletal injury (27).…”

“…These comprise cardiovascular complications, stroke, retinopathy, nephropathy, adhesive capsulitis, Dupuytren's contracture, crystalinduced arthritis, and PF. 2,3 The occurrence of these disorders is associated with the duration and control of DM. 4 Neuropathic complications or previous foot ulcers are associated with an increased prevalence of PF in diabetic patients.…”

Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common degenerative disorder and a frequent cause of heel pain, mostly affecting patients in their fourth and fifth decades. Diabetic patients are particularly at risk due to the presence of common risks and co-morbidities such as obesity or a sedentary lifestyle. The diagnosis of PF is mainly clinical. Imaging is not recommended for the initial approach. The initial management is conservative and should include physiotherapy, off-loading, stretching exercises, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Glucocorticoid injections or surgery is an option at a later stage in recalcitrant cases. The overall management of PF does not differ between patients with diabetic foot problems and non-diabetic patients, although the details can differ. This narrative review summarizes the state of the art in terms of the risk factors, pathophysiology, diagnosis, assessment, and management of PF in diabetic patients.
