Abstract (2. Language): 
Plantar fasciitis is reported to be one of the most common causes of inferior heel pain in both athletic and non athletic population. It is estimated that 11% to 15% of all foot complaints requiring medical attention can be attributed to this condition. The disorder classically presents with pain that is particularly severe with the first few steps taken in the morning. This article present on overview of the current knowledge on plantar fasciitis and focuses on Etiology, Diagnosis and treatment strategies, conservative treatment are discussed and recent surgical techniques are outlined. This information should assist health care practitioners who treat patients with this disorder.
