Foot pronation is considered as a potential risk factor of lower leg overuse injury. This study aimed to identify plantar pressure characteristics of elite athletes with exercise-induced leg pain in throwing athletic disciplines, and to verify the acute effect of taping for restricting foot pronation by analyzing the plantar pressure characteristics.
This study was designed as a description and comparison of throwing athletic athletes. Participants were divided into exercise-induced leg pain (ELP group, n = 17) and control groups (CON group, n = 14). Plantar pressure variables (contact area, maximum force, and peak pressure) at eight-foot regions in athletes' supporting leg were recorded during standing on one leg and a natural walk before and after applying anti-pronation or sham taping techniques.
There are significant difference of contact area, maximal force, and peak pressure in some regions of their foot between the ELP and CON groups. But the anti-pronation taping decreased only the peak pressure in lateral midfoot of CON group during a natural walk (p = 0.002).
The anti-pronation taping technique may not be effective preventive strategy from the exercise-induced leg pain, such as shin splints.
足内翻被认为是小腿过度使用损伤的潜在危险因素。本研究旨在确定投掷运动项目中因运动引起腿部疼痛的优秀运动员的足底压力特征，并通过分析足底压力特征来验证通过贴扎限制足内翻的急性效果。
本研究设计为投掷运动员的描述性和对比研究。参与者分为运动引起的腿部疼痛（ELP 组，n = 17）和对照组（CON 组，n = 14）。在单腿站立和自然行走前后，使用反旋或假贴扎技术，记录运动员支撑腿的八个足部区域的足底压力变量（接触面积、最大力和峰值压力）。
ELP 组和 CON 组的足部某些区域的接触面积、最大力和峰值压力存在显著差异。但在自然行走时，反旋贴扎仅降低了 CON 组的外侧中足部的峰值压力（p = 0.002）。
反旋贴扎技术可能不是预防胫骨夹板等运动引起腿部疼痛的有效策略。
