Document Summary
Pain location will be localized to 1st mtp joint: deeper injury = more vague pain. Functional limitations: walking/running, jumping: (cid:498)pushing off(cid:499) mechanisms will aggravate turf toe, propulsive phase of walking. Not designed to hold a joint together: contributes to arch of foot (medial longitudinal arch, pronation stretches fascia, supination alleviates pulls of fascia. Chronic process of degeneration: slow breakdown/degradation of plantar fascia. Over pronation (collapsed arch) stretches fascia causing failure/damage from collagen breaking: excess supination (over/high arch) have tendency to have may not be able to tolerate new load or change (structural weakness) Will notice during impact and push off: pushing off pulls apart plantar fascia. Improve reactivity of muscles that control ankle and foot: tibialis anterior is an arch supporter, balancing exercises. Increase flexibility/extensibility of plantar fascia, and plantar flexors: over archers need to stretch out fascia to help response to lengthening, ex.
