"In the average case of plantar fasciitis, it's 100% curable," Wickham says. It's only in cases that involve bone spurs and other structural issues that pain cannot be relieved through the right exercises.
The problem for runners suffering from plantar fasciitis is that the Boost is inherently unstable. Enter the Adidas Solarglide ST 4: a stable running shoe that features a Boost midsole. To increase stability, there’s firm, supportive plastic along the arch of the shoe and a stable frame that supports your foot through the gait.
Plantar fasciitis can be both a medical disability and a legally-protected disability that may qualify you for medical treatment, insurance coverage, or disability benefits, depending on a few different factors.
What are the ICD-10 codes for plantar fasciitis or heel spurs? Plantar fasciitis uses the diagnostic code M72. 2.
M72. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
For plantar fasciotomy, see 28008. For division of plantar fascia and muscle, see 28250.
It supports the arch of your foot, and when it becomes irritated or degenerated, then you have what is called plantar fasciitis (other names include: plantar fasciosis, which indicates degeneration, and plantar fasciopathy, which includes both degeneration and the inflammation indicated by plantar fasciitis).
ICD-10 code M79. 67 for Pain in foot and toes is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Soft tissue disorders .
ICD-10 | Pain in left foot (M79. 672)
M79. 673 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
20550 Injection(s); single tendon sheath, or ligament, aponeurosis (e.g., plantar “fascia”) 20551 single tendon origin/insertion.
CPT code 20550 defines an injection to the tendon sheath; CPT code 20551 defines an injection to the origin/insertion site of a tendon. CPT code 20550 is frequently used for a trigger finger injection, where the injection is administered to the tendon sheath.
Plantar fasciosis is sometimes referred to as plantar fasciitis. However, the term plantar fasciitis is not correct. The term fasciitis means inflammation of the fascia, but plantar fasciosis is a disorder where the fascia is repeatedly stressed rather than inflamed.
Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the plantar fascia, tissue in the foot used during walking and foot movement. Plantar fasciitis can be caused by a number of factors, including type of shoes, foot structure, overuse and types of walking surfaces.
The plantar fascia is the thick connective tissue (aponeurosis) which supports the arch on the bottom (plantar side) of the foot. It runs from the tuberosity of the calcaneus (heel bone) forward to the heads of the metatarsal bones (the bone between each toe and the bones of the mid-foot).
Plantar fasciitis, also known as plantar fasciosis or jogger's heel is a disorder that results in pain in the heel and bottom of the foot. The pain is usually most severe with the first steps of the day or following a period of rest.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 728.71 was previously used, M72.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
