The calcaneal spurs are a specific condition of middle and old age. It manifests through plantar osteophytosis on plantar fascia insertion, and is largely associated with plantar fasciitis. Calcaneal spurs are asymptomatic until they are mechanically irritated and inflamed, they respond through a local intense pain. The proposed treatment is conservative, and uses physiotherapy applied locally such as TENS current, ultrasound and passiv/active stretches. The study was performed on a group of 10 patients, treated daily with the physiotherapy complex program. Patients are evaluated according to the VAS pain assessment scale at the beginning of the treatment and at the end. The evaluated parameters were: pain at rest, pain in standing position, and pain in walking. The results showed a favorable evolution in pain reduction, in all patients treated within 10 days. All the data obtained from the evaluations were processed statistically based on specialized software [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
