The association between obesity and foot pain: metabolic, biomechanical or both?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Process Initially, two systematic reviews were undertaken to assess: (i) the relationship between body mass index with musculoskeletal foot disorders, and (ii) the relationship between body composition and foot structure and function. Following this, we undertook a longitudinal and cross-sectional study of fat mass and foot pain to determine any association. Finally, a cross-sectional study of foot posture, range of motion and plantar pressure characteristics in obese and non-obese individuals was undertaken.
