Comparison of Structural Diagnosis and Management Approach Versus Myofascial Release for Plantar Heel Pain in People With Diabetes Mellitus: A Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial Protocol

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Plantar heel pain (PHP) is prevalent among individuals with diabetes mellitus and contributes to chronic pain, reduced mobility, muscle weakness, and activity limitation. Conventional treatments such as medications and physical modalities are used but often lack long‐term effectiveness and cost‐efficiency.

Sagittal movement of the medial longitudinal arch is unchanged in plantar fasciitis

, 2004
Background: Although a lowered medial longitudinal arch has been cited as a causal factor in plantar fasciitis, there is little experimental evidence linking arch motion to the pathogenesis of the condition.
