Ultrasound-guided prolotherapy versus corticosteroid injections for the treatment of patients with plantar fasciitis: A randomized controlled trial

Both CSI and DP were effective in treating PF by reducing pain and improving foot function index in the middle term. While CSI ensures better short-term outcomes, its effectiveness tends to wane over time. On the contrary, DP does not provide significant short-term relief but is more effective in the middle term. Further trials are needed to support these findings.
