This study compared three ultrasound-guided injection approaches for patients with plantar heel pain associated with a calcaneal spur: injection around the Baxter nerve, injection at the origin of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle, and a combined injection at both sites. The study assessed pain and foot function before treatment and at 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment to compare the outcomes of the three approaches.
