The purpose of this research is to translate Foot and Ankle Disability Index in Urdu and determine the validity and reliability in patients with plantar fasciitis and correlate IT with Quality of Life Short Form-36 and the Visual Analog Scale.
As per recommendation of the English Version of Foot and Ankle Disability Index will be translated and culturally adapted. Foot and Ankle Disability Index along with its correlation scales will be distributed in the seventy plantar fasciitis population that will be selected according to inclusion exclusion criteria and through convenience sampling technique. To check the inter and intra observer reliability of Foot and Ankle Disability Index, Short Form-36 to measure the quality of life and Visual Analog Scale to measure pain will be filled by participants.

Visual Analogue Scale
A Visual Analogue Scale is a measuring tool that attempts to quantify a trait or attitude that is thought to span throughout a range of values and cannot be easily quantified directly. It is frequently used in epidemiologic and clinical research to assess the severity or frequency of different symptoms. A patient's level of pain, for example, might range from none to high. From the patient's point of view, this spectrum seems continuous; their pain does not appear to have distinct leaps, as a classification of none, mild, moderate, and severe would imply. The Visual Analogue Scale was created to capture the concept of an underlying continuity.
