What this Trial Is About
Plantar fasciitis is a prevalent ailment that affects the plantar fascia, a dense tissue strip that spans the underside of the foot, from the heel bone to the toes. Football players are especially susceptible to this ailment because of the sport's high-impact nature, which includes repetitive sprinting, jumping, and quick changes in direction. Taping has been used for many years for various ailments. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of two taping techniques i.e. windlass taping and calcaneal taping on pain, flexibility and lower extremity function in football players.
