Abstract:
Foot problems are common in elderly patients, and the relief of foot pain can increase the rehabilitative potential for patients with chronic diseases, impairments, or disabilities. The author presents a detailed description of techniques for the clinical management of hallux valgus, plantar fascitis, callosities, and myofascial pain syndrome. The focus is clinical and practical, i.e., based upon common foot conditions seen in clinical practice.
