What exactly is sinus tarsi syndrome?
Just what is sinus tarsi syndrome? What is the pathological process inovled in it. An article in German in 2008 with English abstract reported that: We looked for mechanical and functional macroscopic structures in the canalis and sinus tarsi that can be associated with sinus tarsi syndrome in order to deduce therapeutic consequences.We found a complex fibrous layer in the sinus and canalis tarsi that forms slips around the synovial sheats of the extensor tendons under the inferior extensor retinaculum.

Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome
The April 2010 edition of  Podiatry Today magazine has a good update of the latest concepts in Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome by Kevin Kirby . Two interesting key concepts that came through in the review is that there is no agreement on exactly what is the pathological process in the condition – is it a soft tissue traction issue or a bone stress reaction due to tibial bending actions Continue reading

Weightbearing MRI for plantar fasciitis
In a recent edition of Radiological Medicine there is a new study that investigated the use of a weightbearing MRI to assess those with plantar fasciitis . They were able to report that the changes in the MRI signal that was associated with plantar fasciitis when compared by blinded examiners in those without plantar fasciitis. Unlike the usual ultrasound finding, the thickness of the plantar fascia was reduced due to stretching in the weightbearing position compared to the supine position. Continue reading

Should we classify plantar fasciitis treatments into two categories?
True plantar fasciitis is due to an overload in the plantar fascia, so the logical way to treat plantar fasciitis is to reduce that load. It could be assumed that any treatment is likely to fail long term if this load is not reduced. So should be consider plantar fasciitis treatments under the two categories of those that reduce the load and those that facilitate the healing? Continue reading
