Abstract
Background: Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain, impairing functionality and quality of life. Radial pressure wave therapy (RPWT) is a well-known non-invasive option to treat PF, but evidence on factors influencing outcomes is limited.
Objectives: The objectives of the study are to explore associations between baseline patient characteristics and clinical outcomes and to evaluate the impact of RPWT on pain and functionality in PF patients.
Materials and Methods: This exploratory, pilot study included 19 PF patients treated with three RPWT sessions. Pain intensity (numerical pain rating scale [NPRS]) and functionality (World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 [WHODAS 2.0]) were assessed pre- and post-treatment. Retrospective data on age, body mass index (BMI), and PF chronicity were analyzed. Statistical tests included Wilcoxon signed rank for outcome comparisons and Spearman’s correlation for associations.
Results: NPRS scores decreased significantly from 6.89 ± 1.88 to 4.42 ± 2.36 (P = 0.001), while WHODAS 2.0 scores improved from 47.60 ± 21.85 to 21.34 ± 20.30 (P = 0.001). Baseline NPRS scores showed a moderate, positive correlation with post-treatment NPRS scores (ρ = 0.561, P = 0.01). No significant correlations were found between post-treatment outcomes and BMI, age, or PF chronicity.
Conclusion: RPWT significantly reduced pain and improved functionality in PF patients, with baseline pain levels emerging as a factor associated with outcomes. These preliminary findings support RPWT as a promising treatment and highlight the need for larger, controlled studies to validate and expand these results.

Abstract

Introduction: Current evidence supports the use of radial pressure wave and focused extracorporeal shock wave treatment (ESWT) for the treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis that does not improve with conservative treatment. Studies show that a quarter of plantar fasciitis may have an associated neuropathic component and the literature shows that neuropathic pain causes more intense pain and greater functional disability. However, there is a lack of literature on the results of ESWT in tendinopathies associated with the neuropathic pattern.
Case report: We report a case of plantar fasciitis with central sensitization and associated neuropathic component. At first, pregabalin 75mg twice a day was used, which improved the neuropathic pattern. After that, 3 sessions were performed with piezoelectric ESWT with energy of 0.12 mJ/mm2, 2000 impulses at a frequency of 8 Hz, once a week for three weeks. The patient was followed up for 3 months and had complete improvement of symptoms without functional limitation for activities of daily living.
Conclusion: This case report serves to draw attention to the importance of evaluating and treating the neuropathic pattern associated with tendinopathies in order to optimize the therapeutic result. However, randomized clinical trials are lacking to determine the real difference in results between using ESWT in nociceptive pain or in mixed pain with an associated neuropathic component.

Abstract

Plantar fasciopathy is the most common cause of heel pain. It is a primarily degenerative and mechanical overuse pathology. The plantar fascia fulfills important biomechanical functions in the foot, being its “windlass” mechanism, the most important function in this regard, allowing the foot to act as a single and efficient motor unit during gait. Its clinical and imaging diagnosis is fully defined, being Baxter’s nerve entrapment neuropathy, its most significant differential diagnosis. The elongation exercises constitute the basic treatment, being the extracorporeal shock wave therapy of significant utility, amplified in its effects by the association with the referred therapeutic exercises.

Keywords: Plantar fasciitis, shock waves, fasciopathy.
