ABSTRACT

Nerve compression syndromes constitute a group of pathologies that we can diagnose more frequently, it is important to know their existence and the anamnesis. We present the case of a patient with chronic plantalgia who had to go through different doctors, studies and treatments without satisfactory results before being able to integrate a diagnosis of tarsal tunnel syndrome and thus achieve an effective treatment that incorporated her into her daily activities. It is necessary to know about compressive neuropathies and their clinical approach to be able to suspect their presence in plantalgia.
