Purpose: To evaluate the efcaciousness of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in treating plantar fasciitis, focusing on pain relief, functional improvement, and patient satisfaction. A prospective study was Methods: conducted on 40 patients (15 men and 25 women) who received platelet-rich plasma injections for plantar fasciitis between August 2020 and March 2022. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) were used to analyse the results. Results: Of the 40 patients, 31 (77.5%) had excellent outcomes according to the mean VAS with age for plantar fasciitis, and 9 (22.5%) had good clinical outcomes. At the time of injection, the mean pain score was 8.45%; at 1, 2, and 3 months, it was 4.925%, 3.375%, and 1.925%, respectively. Conclusion: The signicant results demonstrate a proportional improvement attributed to platelet-rich plasma injections. This treatment modality resulted in reduced pain, favorable clinical outcomes, and a decreased need for surgical intervention in managing plantar fasciitis.
