Plantar heel pain is an exceedingly common condition that 1 in 10 Canadians will experience at some point in their lifetime. While 80% of these cases will resolve within 6-months, those patients that don't improve languish in debilitating pain that interferes with their work and activities of daily living.
This seminar will cover a review of our contemporary understanding of the pathophysiology of 'plantar fasciitis', discuss options to exhaust conservative care, and lastly touch on more advanced physiatry-based treatment options for the recalcitrant patient.
