Radial vs Focused Shockwave Therapy for Plantar Fasciitis

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether focused extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) provides better outcomes than radial ESWT for adults with plantar fasciitis. It will also learn about the safety and tolerability of both treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does focused ESWT lead to greater improvement in heel pain than radial ESWT? 2. Does focused ESWT improve foot function more than radial ESWT? 3. Do participants experience less discomfort during focused ESWT compared with radial ESWT? 4. What medical problems or side effects occur with either treatment? Researchers will compare focused ESWT to radial ESWT to see whether one treatment offers better clinical outcomes or is better tolerated. Participants will: 1. Receive three shockwave treatment sessions (radial or focused), one week apart 2. Attend clinic follow-up assessments at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months 3. Complete questionnaires about heel pain and foot function Keep a diary of symptoms, daily pain levels, activity limitations, and any use of pain medication
