No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Plantar fasciitis (PF), a leading cause of persistent heel pain, results in almost a million physician visits annually. Conservative treatment is often the first line of management with insoles being frequently prescribed. While multiple studies have compared insoles based on the degree of customization to foot contour, the literature is lacking in data comparing insoles based on their material. In this randomized clinical trial, we compared the early effects of polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU), and carbon fiber insoles in the treatment of PF, using a set of patient-reported outcomes.
