Summary
This clinical study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of infiltrations in the treatment of plantar fasciopathy, a painful condition that affects the sole of the foot and is common in active people. Plantar fasciopathy is caused by inflammation or damage to the plantar fascia, the tissue that connects the heel to the toes. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive one of two treatments: corticosteroid infiltrations or conservative treatment without infiltrations. Infiltrations will be guided by ultrasound to ensure accuracy. The study will evaluate pain reduction and improvement in foot function over a six-month period. The objective of the study is to determine if infiltrations provide a significant improvement compared to other non-invasive treatments. The results will help doctors and patients make informed decisions about the best treatment options for plantar fasciopathy.
