What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Patients who underwent pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment of the posterior tibial nerve under ultrasound guidance, which is routinely performed in our clinic for severe heel pain following a calcaneal fracture, were evaluated through interviews. The assessment was conducted using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score.
