PLANTAR FASCIITIS

This study looks at whether treating an additional nerve in the foot can improve pain relief for people with chronic plantar heel pain. About 48 adults aged 18 to 65 with ongoing heel pain will receive pulsed radiofrequency treatment to either one or two nerves. Researchers will …

This study compares two types of injections—bone marrow aspirate and platelet-rich fibrin—to treat chronic plantar fasciitis (long-term heel pain). 72 adults with heel pain lasting over 6 months will receive one of the treatments under ultrasound guidance. The goal is to see whic…

This study tests whether adding a needle-based treatment (percutaneous electrolysis) to calf muscle trigger points, along with standard treatment on the heel, reduces pain more than standard treatment alone. About 50 adults with chronic plantar fasciitis (heel pain lasting at lea…

This study compares two non-invasive treatments—high-intensity laser and high-power pain threshold ultrasound—for easing heel pain and improving movement in people with plantar fasciitis. Researchers will enroll 60 adults aged 30 to 60 who have had heel pain for at least a month.…

This early study tests if blocking a small artery in the foot can safely reduce long-term heel pain from plantar fasciitis. Ten adults aged 25 to 80 who have not found relief from other treatments will undergo a minimally invasive procedure. Researchers will track pain levels and…
