Summary
Although there are many conservative method for plantar fasciitis, patients might spend 2
years to achieve resolution. Recent study have shown that pulsed radiofrequency (PRF)
lesioning of peripheral nerve can alleviate kinds of pain condition. However there are no
studies of PRF lesioning of the tibial nerve in patients with plantar fascilitis by using
ultrasound-guided (UG) techniques.
