1 Before you use it
What it is
Twenty-three items across three subscales — pain, disability and activity limitation. A revised version (FFI-R) exists.
When to reach for it
As the FHSQ alternative for forefoot and plantar presentations, especially where the activity-limitation subscale is what you want to track.
2 Giving it
Scoring
Three subscales, each as a percentage. Higher means worse. Note the direction is the opposite of FHSQ.
What it doesn’t measure
Foot posture, footwear, or ankle function.
3 Reading the score
Interpreting it
Interpret against baseline.
Is the change real?
Student trap. Recording it in the FHSQ direction. FFI goes up as they get worse.
