Abstract

Background: In India, the most typical form of heel pain is plantar, which results in inflammation of plantar fascia sometimes and can be seen in every age group. This condition mainly includes inflammation of plantar fascia and can be treated conservatively. It may cause many secondary symptoms along with it, and pain in back region is one of them. The purpose of this study is to discover how prevalent low back pain was in individuals who had plantar fasciitis. Objectives: Objectives are to evaluate the pain associated with plantar fasciitis, assess the low back pain and lastly check the prevalence of low back pain in plantar fasciitis patients by using different methods. Method: A convenience sampling method consisted of 65 participants were selected in relation with inclusion and exclusion criteria. The information collected, which comprises questionnaires and demographic data. Two standardised questionnaires were used, i.e., one to check the ability of an individual on the basis of plantar fasciitis and another to check the back pain especially in lower region. Both scales were given to 65 individuals one by one. First the foot’s capability calculated, and then pain in lower back region was checked. The prevalence was calculated on the basis of both scale responses with the help of statistical analysis. Results: The outcomes of the statistical study indicated that, the incidence of low back pain is prevalent of individual’s foot disability in plantar fasciitis patients. Conclusion: Findings show that the prevalence of low back pain is higher if plantar fasciitis has become chronic in the patient, and if the foot’s ability is maximal, low back pain is minimal, and vice versa.
