Summary

Obesity is a risk factor for calcaneal spur (CS) formation which is supposed to originate from chronic plantar fasciitis. Diabetes mellitus may contribute to the risk of CS by decreased ability of tissue repair and increased reactive ossification. Thus, the investigators aimed to determine CS incidence in asymptomatic obese subjects with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
