Fascitis plantar - Síntomas

Síntomas:

El síntoma más común es el dolor en la parte inferior del talón que generalmente es agudo en la mañana y va disminuyendo a lo largo del día. Al finalizar el día, el dolor puede ser reemplazado por un dolor sordo que mejora con el descanso.

Signos y exámenes:

Los hallazgos del examen típico abarcan:

  • Hinchazón leve
  • Enrojecimiento
  • Sensibilidad en la parte inferior del talón

Se pueden tomar radiografías para descartar otros problemas, pero tener un espolón en el talón no es revelador.
