Clinical observation on the therapeutic effect of massage manipulations combined with an extracorporeal shock wave therapy for heel pain
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of massage manipulations combined with a extracorporeal shock wave therapy for heel pain.Methods Sixty patients with heel pain who were treated in our hospital from June 2022 to July 2023 were selected and randomly divided into two groups,each with 30 cases,using a random number table method.The control group received a conventional western medicine treatment such as extracorporeal shock wave,while the observation group received a combined massage therapy for 2 weeks on the basis of the control group.The improvement of visual analogue scale(VAS)score,SF-36 health survey questionnaire score,Maryland foot function score,and MCSS score were observed and compared between the two groups,and the total effective rate,recurrence,and treatment safety were compared between the two groups.Results The VAS scores of both groups were decreased after treatment(P<0.05),and the observation group was lower than the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the MCSS scores,SF-36 scores,and Maryland foot function scores were all increased in both groups(P<0.05),and the observation group was higher than the control group(P<0.05).The total effective rate of the observation group was 93.3%(28/30),higher than that of the control group(73.3%,22/30)(P<0.05).The recurrence rate of 3.6%(1/28)was lower in the observation group than that of 22.7%(5/22)in the control group(P<0.05).No treatment-related adverse reactions occurred during the treatment in both groups.Conclusion Tuina manipulations combined with extracorporeal shock waves can effectively alleviate pain symptoms in patients with heel pain,improve foot function,and improve their quality of life,with a lower recurrence rate and a more significant therapeutic effect.
