The orthopedic physician administered the corticosteroid injection as a mixture of 1 ml of arthropane (5 mg of triamcinolone hexacetonide) and 4 ml of citanest. Before the application, the physician cleaned the area to be treated with 10% povidone iodine. He made a single dose injection by entering the painful point determined by palpation around the calcaneal spur and plantar fascia from the percutaneous foot-heel lateral. The patients were in the prone position with the ankle in a neutral position.

After the application, he covered the area with a sterile cloth and said to remove it after 3 hours. He stated that patients could apply ice to the injected area if necessary for pain control, and advised patients to avoid all jogging and other high-impact activities on the day of injection. No additional treatments, including NSAIDs, orthoses, and night splints, were allowed during the study period.

This scale allocates 45 points for function, 40 points for pain, and 15 points for alignment. Higher scores indicate that the patient's condition is favorable.

It is a 23-item questionnaire designed to assess how foot pathology affects pain, disability, and activity limitations. The FFI score was calculated based on 5 questions related to pain (with a maximum of 50 points). Each question was scored on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no pain and 10 indicates unbearable pain. In our study, we utilized the Turkish version of the FFI questionnaire.

The 6MWT is a simple, safe, and well-tolerated test that effectively reflects daily life activities. In our study, the 6MWT was conducted in a 30-meter long, flat, enclosed corridor. We measured the patient's heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure before the test, immediately after completion, and again 5 minutes later. Fatigue levels were evaluated using the Borg Scale, and the distance walked by the patient was recorded in meters.

The test evaluates walking ability, and patients were instructed to walk at their own comfortable pace for a distance of 50 meters. The stopwatch was started with the command to begin at the starting point. Upon reaching the 50-meter mark, we stopped the stopwatch and recorded the time.

Patients were asked to indicate their current pain level on a visual analog scale, which consisted of a 10 cm line. The distance was then measured using a ruler and recorded. A lower score indicates decreased pain.
