Plantar Fascitiis: Comparison of ESWT and Collagen Hydrolyzed Peptides

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Patients suffering from Plantar Fasciitis were randomized into three groups: the first group underwent infiltration of Collagen Hydrolyzed Peptides, the second one underwent the ESWT treatment, the third one underwent a combination of the two treatments. Aim of the study was to consider any difference in the outcome of the three groups of patients. The NRS and the AFAS score were considered for the outcome measurement.
