Clinical Trial Summary

The effect of high intensity laser therapy in the management of painful calcaneal spur: a double blind, placebo-controlled study

Clinical Trial Description

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) and exercise in patients with calcaneal spur. The patients were randomly assigned to receive either HILT + exercise (n=21) or placebo HILT + exercise (n=21). Pain severity (with visual analog scale (VAS) and with Roles and Maudsley score (RMS) ), functionality (with Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS)), plantar pressure measurement (with pedobarographic assesment), and quality of life (with short form-36 (SF-36)) of the patients were evaluated at baseline, at 4 weeks, and 12 weeks. ;
