What is this structure?
Plantar aponeurosis:
top part: superficial transver metatarsal ligaments
bottom: transver fasicles
main support of longitudinal arch
stops skin from moving too much
What is plantar fasciitis?
inflammed or torn plantar aponeurosis (near heel) due to overwork of muscle near heel
