Foot posture, foot function and low back pain: the Framingham Foot Study
OBJECTIVE Abnormal foot posture and function have been proposed as possible risk factors for low back pain, but this has not been examined in detail. The objective of this study was to explore the associations of foot posture and foot function with low back pain in 1930 members of the Framingham Study (2002-05). METHODS Low back pain, aching or stiffness on most days was documented on a body ...
متن کاملFoot Disorders, Foot Posture, and Foot Function: The Framingham Foot Study
INTRODUCTION Foot disorders are common among older adults and may lead to outcomes such as falls and functional limitation. However, the associations of foot posture and foot function to specific foot disorders at the population level remain poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to assess the relation between specific foot disorders, foot posture, and foot function. METHODS Partici...
متن کاملThe associations of leg lean mass with foot pain, posture and function in the Framingham foot study
BACKGROUND Foot disorders are common in older adults and associated with impaired lower extremity function. Reduced muscle mass may play a role in the etiology of foot disorders and consequent poor function. METHODS We examined the association of leg lean mass with foot pain, posture and function among 1,795 individuals (mean age 67 years) from the population-based Framingham Foot Study (2002...
متن کاملThe Biomechanics of the Foot
These words of the old master of ortho paedics, Georg Hohmann, from his book "Fuss und Bein" are still applicable today. Thirty years later, the biomechanics of the foot have still not been completely explained, and there are many questions yet unanswered. The many, more or less articulated connec tions of the foot allow a variety of changes which make it difficult to understand the move men...
متن کاملFoot biomechanics- emerging paradigms
Too many times theories of how the human foot functions and therefore how mechanically inducted foot problems are treated have been presented as if they were facts. The dogmatic adherence that sometimes ensues from such an approach has frequently stifled the evolution of foot mechanics. This has been particularly apparent in the field of podiatry which has been dominated by the Root paradigm. B...
