Brief Summary: 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 ESWTKB 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 25 Barr energy and 2000 Shocksession 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
Detailed Description: One of the most common pathologies that causes foot pain negatively affects the individuals walking and reduces the quality of life is calcaneal spur heel spur Calcaneal spurs are fibro-cartilaginous protrusions varying in size that form around the calcaneal bone the strongest most important and rearmost bone in the foot

Treatment aims to reduce pain reduce inflation and shrink and eliminate the spur Conservative treatment includes exercises massage ultrasound phonophoresis laser short wave diathermy cryotherapy and extracorporeal shock wave therapy ESWT as physiotherapy applications

ESWT are pressure waves delivered to the body to stimulate soft tissue growth through local hyperemia neovascularization reduction of calcification inhibition of pain receptors and denervation to provide pain relief and healing of chronic processes ESWT is also used effectively in the treatment of calcaneal spur

The aim of this study is to observe the superiority if any of ESWT and KB in the treatment of each other or to show how effective the combined application of the two is in the treatment of calcaneal spur

This study will be a single-blind randomized controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of BP and ESWT in patients with calcaneal spurs All procedures used will be carried out in accordance with the ethical rules of the Declaration of Helsinki and were approved by the Amasya University Clinical Research Ethics Committee E-30640013-0500104-126508 The study will be carried out on patients who applied to the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Polyclinic of a hospital between 10102023 and 10122023 with the complaint of heel pain and diagnosed with calcaneal spur

Inclusion criteria for the study were diagnosis of calcaneal spur by a physician being in the age range of 30-70 years patient complaining of pain in the heel region appearance of calcaneal protrusion in the radiographic image no other treatment or medication NSAI steroids other drugs etc analgesics and the patient volunteered to participate in the study Exclusion criteria were those who received injection therapy to the foot area corticosteroids or corticosteroidsanesthetics those with a history of rheumatic disease coagulopathy thrombophlebitis neoplasia systemic inflammatory disease and outpatient surgery in the last 3 months No other treatment or medication NSAI steroids other analgesics will be used during the study period
