Author(s): Maher Ahmed Elkeblawy, Mohamed Mohamed Mashaly* and Yasser Ramzy Lahseen
Purpose: to look into the impacts of shock wave therapy versus phonophoresis in chronic plantar fasciitis. Subjects: sixty-three patients having unilateral chronic plantar fasciitis. Design: pre and post Randomized Control Trial. Methods: The patients were randomly assigned to Group A who received Radial Shockwave Therapy (2000 SWs energy intensity between 0.25 and 0.35 mJ/mm) at (frequency= 10Hz) for 4 weeks 1 session per week additional to conventional treatment. Group B received ultrasound ketoprofen phonophoresis continuous mode, base frequency of 1MHz, power 2 w/cm2, applied for three minutes to each location, and conventional treatment for 4 weeks 3 sessions per week. Group C control group received traditional treatment only (night splint + foot orthosis + calf muscle /plantar fasci.. Read More»
