As a sports podiatrist as well as a medical professional, I must to take into consideration medical information. It is imperative that the procedures we utilize in our clinic are not only safe, but also efficient and tested. Plantar fasciitis socks cannot be included in this class.

What is the story with the plantar faciitis people who say that socks helped their condition? It’s a huge claim and is complex. The reason is straightforward: in the field of medical science, or any field of science in general, for a claim to efficacy to be valid, there must have been at the very least one, and typically, there are many reproducible studies. If a trial is conducted, there must be rules to be followed. These rules refer to the scientific principles that must be adhered to in order for studies to remain unbiased and valid. These variables, in very simple terms, need to be managed so that statistical analysis can produce relevant conclusions that can be repeated.

If a study were to be done on the efficacy of plantar faciitis socks for treating patients suffering from plantar fasciitis. Researchers would have to be aware of and manage variables like the type of footwear worn by patients, how many steps they are taking and notes on the activities that patients take part in, their intensity and extent of the injury to patients’ plantar faciitis and body weight, gender as well as other medical conditions. Researchers should consider how to be sure that they do not report bias and avoid the ‘placebo effect’ in patients. They also need to think about how to measure the tangible healing effects of plantar fasciitis socks.

However, it is possible to achieve this by using the correct technique for strapping without expensive plantar fasciitis-specific socks are required. It is extremely likely that just compression will be enough to allow the plantar fascia to heal. As mentioned previously, any other treatments or remedies that the patient is concurrently using may also impact the healing process and pain relief. Whilst using their socks, they might have been taking a break from their feet more often, or perhaps they’ve taken part in prescribed exercises, perhaps they are using cold therapies or other treatments…without knowing this it is impossible to draw any conclusions.
