Sponsor's own description

Calcaneal spur (heel spur) is one of the most common disorders associated with foot pain. Patients may complain of pain at every step during the day, so it is important to find the most effective treatment method for patients. The aim of this study is to compare the therapeutic efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and kinesiology taping (KB) in patients with calcaneal spurs. Thirty patients with calcaneal spurs will be included in the study. The gender, age, body weight, height, body mass index, and affected side of the patients will be recorded. Patients will be randomly divided into three treatment groups: ESWT to the first group, KB therapy to the second group, and combined ESWT+KB to the third group. Each group will be treated for five sessions, once a week for five weeks. ESWT 15Hz frequency will be applied as 2.5 Barr energy and 2000 Shock/session. It will be applied with the KB I and fan method and the tape will not be removed for three days after the application. In the pre- and post-treatment evaluations of the patients, heel sensitivity and sensory perception will be evaluated with the Foot structure Foot Posture Index (API). Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Quality of Life Short Form-36 (SF-36), Foot Function Index (AFI) and Windlass Test will be used.
