Treatment of "plantar fasciitis"/Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome with botulinum toxin - A novel injection paradigm pilot study.
Foot 2020 July 7
Randomized controlled trials over the last two decades, although promising with favorable results, have shown varied efficacy in treatment of "plantar fasciitis" with botulinum toxin injection1 . One reason may be due to conflating the variabilities of plantar heel conditions solely as plantar fasciitis. Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome can be of one or more etiologies and symptoms which refutes the mistaken tendency to categorize all plantar heel pain singularly as either plantar fasciitis or fasciosis. Recognizing that there is likely an interplay of inflammatory, degenerative, and neuropathic etiologic conditions of this often-difficult malady to treat, a novel injection paradigm of botulinum toxin is explored in the treatment of 4 distinct presentations of Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome with encouraging results. Botulinum toxin injection into two intrinsic foot muscles; Abductor Hallucis and Quadratus Plantae at their origins with electrical stimulation is presented as novel method to treat four distinct etiologies of Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome. This method of botulinum toxin injection resulted in significant prolonged improvement of patient function and pain reduction in four variations of Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome. A precise injection paradigm facilitated with direct intrinsic muscle stimulation of the Abductor Hallucis and Quadratus Plantae at their origins may prove to be effective in reducing the disabilities of Plantar Heel Pain Syndrome and its associated pain.
