Overuse Injury: The Result of Pathologically Altered Myofascial Force Transmission?
- 01Focusing only on the site of symptoms may be too simple
- 02Altered myofascial force transmission may contribute to injury
- 03Examples include plantar fasciitis and low back pain
- 04Suggests looking beyond the site of pain for causes
Pain from an overuse injury may stem from altered force transmission through connected myofascial tissues, not just the site of pain.
Overuse injuries are suggested to result from repetitive microdamage eliciting pain in the affected tissue. Therapy commonly focuses on the area of symptom localization; however, such approach may oversimplify the true etiopathology. This review hypothesizes that the development of some sports-related soft tissue disorders, such as plantar fasciitis or lumbago, is promoted by pathologically altered force transmission from anatomically connected structures.
