Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy Versus High Power LASER Therapy for the Treatment of Females With Calcaneal Spur

Overview

PURPOSE: To compare the effect of Extracorporeal shock wave therapy and high-power LASER therapy for the treatment of patients with calcaneal spur Background: Calcaneal spur is a common musculoskeletal disorder of the foot that affect the quality-of-life Conservative treatment modalities include, cold application, platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP), shoe modification, therapeutic ultrasound, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), laser therapy (LLLT) are commonly used in the treatment of calcaneal spur. HYPOTHESES: There will be difference between Extracorporeal shock wave therapy and High- power LASER therapy on pain intensity in patients with calcaneal spur There will be difference between Extracorporeal shock wave therapy and High- power LASER therapy on function in patients with calcaneal spur. There will be difference between Extracorporeal shock wave therapy and High- power LASER therapy on the size of calcaneal spur in patients with calcaneal spur. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there any difference between the effect of Extracorporeal shock wave therapy and High-power LASER on calcaneal spur?
