- Abstract
Background: Calcaneus distress is a frequent moan in the trotter and talus, and plantar fasciosis, which accounts for 11-15% of adult patients' symptoms of the foot need medical attention. One in ten people are predicted to get PF at some point in their lives. It is further prevalent in mid-life fat women and adolescent athletes. The desire of this project is to evaluate the success of calf stretching by theraband among plantar fasciitis patients. Purpose: To determine the effects of calf stretching using theraband on managing pain among plantar fasciitis patients Materials and Methods: Fifty eight people were covered for addition and prohibition. They were splitted into two groups: passive calf stretching group (29) and self-calf stretching group (29). The pre and post-test values were measured by pain catastrophizing scale. Group-A received passive calf stretching using theraband and group-B received self-calf stretching. Both programs were given for 2 weeks, weekly 5 days. Result: Using pain catastrophizing scale, Group A's (Passive calf stretching group) post-test mean was 27.38 and whereas group B's (Self calf stretching) was 32.24. This demonstrates that group-A has decreased pain catastrophizing score less than group-B. And this suggests that group A showed considerably finer than group B. Conclusion: Passive calf stretching using theraband by group-A was found to be more effective than self-calf stretching of group-B..
