On this forum, there has been a plethora of discussions on Plantar Fasciitis. Recently, a great deal of attention has been focused on stretching exercises to ameliorate the pain associated with PF. This would be a logical approach if PF was a primary pathology, which it is not.

PF is a constellation of symptoms in which there are many possible causes. ​

It is more logical to identify and treat the cause of PF directly. Once the primary aetiology has been eliminated, the constellation of symptoms associated with PF will automatically abate.

Attached is a paper I published in 2010 which discusses in detail what I have written above.
