What is a heel spur?

A heel spur is a bony calcium deposit between the heel bone and the arch of the foot. It often starts in the front of the heel and later affects other parts of the foot. It is often the result of long-term strain on muscles and ligaments. Repetitive stress from walking, running, or jumping on hard surfaces is a common cause of heel spurs. Symptoms of inflammation such as pain, swelling, and increased heat are seen in the front part of the heel.

Heel Spur Treatment Methods

What is plantar fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis is a painful foot condition resulting from the inflammation of the connective tissue called the plantar fascia on the sole of the foot and heel, due to overuse or overstretching. Repetitive stress on the plantar fascia can cause minor tissue tears, which may lead to discomfort, swelling, and make walking difficult. It is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often affecting middle-aged men and women, but can also affect individuals who spend a lot of time on their feet or are involved in sports. It is associated with swelling of the thick tissue that connects the sole of the foot to the toes. Plantar fasciitis often causes a sharp pain with the first steps in the morning. The pain usually decreases as the person moves, but can return after prolonged standing or getting up after sitting.

What Factors Trigger Plantar Fasciitis?

• Being overweight or obese
• Being in the 40-60 age range
• Having flat feet, high arches, or other walking problems
• Wearing poor-quality or unsupportive shoes
• Standing for long periods

Plantar Fasciitis Treatment Methods

Plantar fasciitis is a painful but highly treatable condition. If you have heel fasciitis, resting is the most important thing you can do. Additionally, it is important to invest in comfortable, high-quality shoes, as uncomfortable or worn-out shoes will increase stress on the feet. Orthopedic shoe inserts can help support the muscles, tendons, and bones in the feet to work optimally and relieve pain and stress. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be used to treat pain. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a method where shockwaves are sent to the heel to promote the healing of inflamed plantar fascia tissues.

What is Achillodynia?

Achillodynia is a term used to describe Achilles tendon problems of varying severity. Affected individuals feel some degree of pain in the tendons that run from the heel bone to the calf muscles and have limited ability to move the affected limb. In mild cases, achillodynia resolves naturally within a few days. If Achilles tendon pain persists for a long time, it is considered a sign of overstraining. Achillodynia is a common diagnosis among athletes and is considered a frequent injury among runners. Degenerative changes caused by inappropriate mechanical stress or prolonged overstraining provide convincing evidence for this diagnosis. As the structure of the tendon changes, its blood and oxygen supply can also be affected, which can impact the healing process.

Factors Triggering Achillodynia

• Age and gender
• Physical problems
• Exercise choices like running
• Medical conditions; psoriasis or high blood pressure
• Certain antibiotics

Achillodynia Treatment

The patient may have to avoid exercise for a few days or switch to a sport that does not stress the Achilles tendon, such as swimming. In extreme cases, a walking boot and supports are necessary. Pain can be relieved by applying an ice pack to the tendon. Wraps or tight elastic bandages can help reduce swelling and decrease muscle mobility. Swelling can be reduced by keeping the affected foot elevated above heart level. The initial focused shockwave was tested and found to be very effective in treating small, local lesions but ineffective in treating tendinopathies involving larger tendon volumes.

• Mild Skin Redness
• Temporary Pain
• Numbness

This is a condition that mostly occurs in people who do not exercise regularly for a long time, and suddenly put a strain on unaccustomed muscle groups by running or similar activities. Because it causes persistent pain in the front of the shin bone, this condition is also known as shin splints.

In tibial stress syndrome, there is a general pain in the calf area. In addition, it causes pain after exercise and when climbing stairs.

Radial ESWT Treatment for Tibial Stress Syndrome

Shockwave therapy is considered suitable for patients who have taken a break from sports activities, tried stretching, strengthening exercises and have not seen an effect.

With ESWT treatment, the painful area is targeted, and due to the increased blood flow to that area, the activity of stem cells increases, leading to healing and a significant reduction in pain in the painful area.

For optimal benefit from the treatment, it should be supported with physiotherapy and the correct rehabilitation plan should be applied for the patient.

What are the Advantages of Radial ESWT Treatment?

• Shockwave therapy does not involve injections or surgical procedures.
• It causes minimal side effects.
• After the treatment, the patient can continue their daily life.
• Adding ESWT treatment to physiotherapy to address specific symptoms that have lasted for 12 weeks accelerates healing and makes the improvement more noticeable.

Are there any side effects of Radial ESWT Treatment? If so, what are they?

Shockwave therapy can cause discomfort and in some cases be painful depending on the area it is applied to. This is a natural part of the treatment and is a necessary technology for the transmitted shockwaves to stimulate the cells. In painless shockwave treatments, the intensity and effectiveness of the treatment can be questioned. Besides the mild pain, slight redness and bruising may be seen in the area.

For optimal results, shockwave therapy requires an application of 3-4 treatments, with each treatment given every 7-10 days. A shockwave treatment only takes between 3 and 5 minutes.

What is Patellar Syndrome?

For physically active individuals, patellar syndrome can be a condition that restricts participation in sports or activities. The pain and discomfort associated with the condition can be intermittent or continuous, and can significantly affect a person's quality of life. In addition to these factors, there are several other risk factors that can contribute to the development of patellar syndrome. These factors include poor flexibility or range of motion in the hip or ankle, a sudden increase in activity, poor biomechanics or movement patterns, and poor footwear or equipment.

Factors Triggering Patellar Syndrome

• Repetitive strain: Can occur with activities involving repetitive gripping, turning, or lifting, such as playing tennis or golf, using hand tools, or typing on a computer keyboard.
• Overuse: Occurs as a result of overuse of the elbow and forearm muscles.
• Poor technique: Poor technique or form during physical activities like tennis or golf can increase the risk of developing radial and ulnar humeral epicondylitis.
• Can be related to age and gender.

Patellar Syndrome Treatment

Treatment for patellar syndrome typically involves a combination of rest, physical therapy, and pain management. Resting and avoiding activities that aggravate the condition can help reduce pain and inflammation. Physical therapy exercises can help reduce stress on the patella by increasing muscle balance and joint alignment. Pain management may include over-the-counter pain relievers or prescription medications when needed. Radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment option that has been shown to be effective in treating patellar syndrome. During the procedure, high-energy shockwaves are delivered to the affected area, which can stimulate the body's natural healing process and reduce pain and inflammation.

What is Fixation of Loosened Segmentless Prostheses?

Fixation of a loose-part prosthesis refers to a surgical procedure that involves securing a loosened prosthetic joint. This condition can occur over time due to wear, infection, or trauma. When a prosthetic joint loosens, it can cause problems such as pain, instability, and a reduced range of motion, which can significantly affect a person's quality of life. Bone loss is the most important factor affecting the lifespan of loosened and segmentless prostheses. The rate of revision surgery due to loosening is four times higher than the rate for a prosthetic dislocation procedure.

Factors Causing Loosening of Segmentless Prostheses

• Aseptic loosening of prosthesis components
• Bone resorption (bone loss)
• Inflammatory cellular response
• Migration of the implant component
• High-impact activities and excessive body weight

Treatment of Loosened Segmentless Prostheses

Treatment for a loosened segmentless prosthesis usually requires surgical intervention. The specific surgical technique used will vary depending on the location and severity of the loosening and the type of prosthetic joint implanted. The goal of the surgery is to remove the damaged tissue or bone and secure the prosthesis to restore stability and mobility. Revision surgery may be necessary to correct the loosening. Revision surgeries are known to have a lower success rate compared to initial surgeries. The bone-cement interface, osteogenic reaction, and fracture healing can be improved with ESWT treatment. It has been shown to have the ability to loosen cement, especially in hip prosthesis revisions. Although shockwave therapy has been proven to help fracture healing, orthopedic studies have focused more on tendinopathies, fasciopathies, and soft tissue problems affecting the upper and lower extremities.

Possible Side Effects After Treatment with the Radial ESWT Device

• Mild Skin Redness

What is Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome? How does it occur?

Patellofemoral syndrome is a condition where the muscles attached to the kneecap do not pull it evenly to keep it in a neutral position when the joint is moved. There are 4 muscles on the front of the upper leg, and when two of these muscles do not pull evenly, a painful syndrome arises.

Factors Triggering Patellofemoral Syndrome

• Tight, fibrotic vastus lateralis muscle on the outer side of the thigh
• Short leg
• Extremely tight iliotibial (IT) fascial band on the outer side of the thigh
• Early-stage arthritis on the underside of the kneecap
• A weak vastus medialis muscle on the inner side of the thigh, just above the knee
• Alignment problems with the foot, hip, or pelvis

The most common cause of patellofemoral syndrome is an imbalance in the strength of two of the four quadriceps muscles in the thigh.

Radial ESWT Treatment for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Any inflammation can be resolved using shockwave therapy.

Any inflammation can be resolved using shockwave therapy. ESWT treatment is a preferred method to return all muscles in the area to their normal length, eliminate fibrosis, reduce swelling, and correct any mechanical disorders that may exist in the pelvis, hip, and/or feet.

Are there any side effects of Radial ESWT Treatment? If so, what are they?

At the beginning of the treatment, the clinician ensures that the discomfort is kept to a minimum, and the applied shockwave is increased as the sessions progress. After a while, a mild pain is felt as the intensity of the shockwave increases. However, most of the time, there is some pain felt over the application area. It is normal to feel mild pain in the treated area after the treatment, but the pain usually resolves quickly.

After subsequent treatments, there will be a definite improvement in symptoms leading to a reduction in the original pain felt.

What are the Advantages of Radial ESWT Treatment?

Surgical procedures for patellofemoral pain syndrome have a 75% success rate at 18 months, while ESWT treatment for the same condition has been shown to result in good to excellent outcomes for up to 80% of patients at 18 months. Shockwave therapy is better than surgery for certain muscle syndromes, and extensive research is being conducted on this topic.

How many sessions and at what frequency should Radial ESWT treatment be applied?

Shockwave application proceeds with 3-4 sessions of 15 minutes each. Each treatment should ideally be scheduled 7 days apart, with a maximum of no more than 10 days between sessions. The number of sessions and periods may vary depending on the diagnosis of the condition.

What is Trochanteric Bursitis?

Trochanteric bursitis is a condition that causes pain in the outer hip area. The hip joint is surrounded by several small fluid-filled sacs called bursae, which help reduce friction and cushion the joint. Trochanteric bursitis occurs when the bursa located on the outside of the hip near the greater trochanter becomes inflamed.

This inflammation can result from repetitive activities such as running, cycling, or climbing stairs, or from a direct trauma or injury to the area. Symptoms of trochanteric bursitis can include pain, tenderness, and swelling in the hip area, difficulty lying on the affected side, or difficulty walking and climbing stairs.

Treatment options for trochanteric bursitis may include rest, ice or heat therapy, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and in severe cases, a corticosteroid injection into the affected area.

Factors Triggering Trochanteric Bursitis

• Sudden increase in load on the hip
• Changes in activity levels such as an increase in walking distance or speed
• Increased pressure on the hip area by sitting or standing in a single position, or bearing weight on one leg
• Decreased strength and flexibility of the muscles in the hip and buttocks
• Having a sedentary lifestyle or being overweight
• Experiencing an injury such as a fall to the side of the hip
• Hormonal changes
• Can be associated with hip and knee osteoarthritis or back pain

Trochanteric Bursitis Treatment

Recommendations for treatment include methods such as rest, splints, and hot and cold therapy. There are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can be used. Also, corticosteroid injections administered by a healthcare professional can quickly reduce pain and inflammation. Shockwave therapy is used when other conservative treatment options such as rest, pain relievers, and physical therapy have failed, or in situations that have not improved after six months of use. Surgery serves as a treatment alternative. Radial ESWT works effectively in cases of trochanteric bursitis. It has been observed that most patients receiving shockwave therapy experience similar pain reduction and improved mobility of the affected area as with other conservative treatments. It has strong advantages such as being as effective as surgery and having no risk of infection.

What is carpal tunnel syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition that causes numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand and forearm. This condition occurs when the median nerve, one of the main nerves in the hand, gets compressed as it passes through the wrist. Inside the canal are the tendons that enable finger movement and the median nerve. The median nerve provides sensation to the fingers and allows for certain movements. The compression of the nerve inside the canal gives rise to carpal tunnel syndrome.

Factors Leading to the Development of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

• Diabetes
• Thyroid gland diseases
• Excessive fluid retention in the body during pregnancy and menopause
• Hypertension
• Autoimmune diseases where the immune system causes damage to the body's own cells and tissues
• Traumas that have occurred in the wrist area

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment Methods

• Topical pain-relieving and anti-edema gels
• Corticosteroid injections around the nerve with wrist splints

Possible Side Effects After Treatment with the Modus Radial Shockwave Device:

What is Dupuytren's Contracture?

A contracture is a permanent stiffening of soft tissues due to contraction and shortening. Dupuytren's contracture is a hand deformity that occurs with the shortening and thickening of the fibrous layer under the skin of the palm and fingers, which changes its structure. Although it is painless, this thickening and shortening causes the fingers to close and permanently curl. This is a rare connective tissue disorder. A hardened nodule forms from the thickening and shortening of the fibrous tissue located under the palm skin. Subsequently, a very hardened tissue band is seen. As a result, the affected finger begins to be pulled toward the palm over several months or longer. It then remains in a fixed position and cannot be pulled back.

It usually begins with painless swelling in the palm, typically along the lines of the 4th and 5th fingers. The swelling gradually increases and begins to thicken into a band. As the swelling and hardening of the skin increase, the flexibility of the fingers is affected. The patient cannot place their palm flat on a surface and the hand takes on a dome shape. As the disease progresses, it can also affect the tendons, neighboring vessels, and nerves. It becomes progressively more difficult for the patient to straighten their finger. Therefore, washing their hand, wearing gloves, clapping, and grasping objects become impaired.

Factors Triggering Dupuytren's Contracture

• Cirrhosis
• Diabetes
• Thyroid disorders
• Epilepsy
• Genetic predisposition
• Usually affects male patients aged 40 and over

Dupuytren's Contracture Treatment

A local steroid injection can slow down the progression with its anti-inflammatory effect. Hand splints can prevent finger contractures. Hand exercises can help slow down the disease. For patients who do not respond to these treatments and whose condition has progressed, surgery is planned. In the surgical procedure, the thickened and shortened connective tissues are removed to increase the range of motion of the finger joint. Radial ESWT is also one of the treatment methods. It is more effective when used in the early stages of the disease.

What is Lateral Epicondylitis?

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis as it is also known, is a problem related to the tendons of the muscles that perform forearm movements. The tendons of the forearm muscles that enable gripping and rotating movements of the hand attach to the lateral epicondyle on the outside of the elbow. Overuse of these muscles due to repetitive movements can lead to wear, inflammation, and even tearing of the tendon. As a result of this condition, pain can be felt on the outside of the elbow, and weakness can occur in the affected arm.

Factors Leading to the Development of Lateral Epicondylitis

• Using a keyboard and mouse
• Chopping food, especially meat
• Using plumbing tools
• Using hand tools like saws or scissors
• Laying bricks
• Playing racket sports like tennis or badminton

Lateral Epicondylitis Treatment Methods

• Activity modification
• Medication
• Brace
• Physical therapy
• Injection
• Pain mesotherapy
• Surgery

What is Radial and Ulnar Humeral Epicondylitis?

Radial and ulnar humeral epicondylitis are two conditions involving pain and inflammation in the elbow. They are known as tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis), respectively.

Tennis elbow is a condition caused by the overuse of the forearm muscles and tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus bone in the elbow. Similarly, golfer's elbow is a condition that affects the inside of the elbow. This condition is caused by the overuse of the forearm muscles and tendons that attach to the medial epicondyle of the humerus bone.

Factors Triggering Radial and Ulnar Humeral Epicondylitis

• Repetitive strain
• Overuse
• Muscle imbalances
• Incorrect technique during sports
• Age and gender

Radial and Ulnar Humeral Epicondylitis Treatment

Treatment for radial and ulnar humeral epicondylitis involves a combination of rest, pain relief, and rehabilitation exercises. It is important to rest the affected area and avoid activities that worsen the condition. For pain relief, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroid injections can be used. Rehabilitation exercises can help strengthen the affected muscles and increase flexibility. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be required to repair or remove damaged tissue. Radial ESWT treatment has been observed to be effective in reducing pain and increasing function in patients with radial humeral epicondylitis. It is typically administered in a series of sessions over several weeks, with each session lasting about 10-15 minutes. During the treatment, the patient may feel mild to moderate discomfort, but it is generally well-tolerated. After the treatment, patients may experience some pain or bruising in the treated area, but these side effects usually resolve within a few days.

What is Shoulder Arthritis?

Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder worldwide. One of the most important reasons why shoulder pain is experienced by every person at least once in their life is that the shoulder joint is the most mobile and complex joint in the human body. The strong structure of the joint is mainly provided by the soft tissues around the joint. This leads to frequent soft tissue lesions in the shoulder.

In most inflammatory rheumatic diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthropathy, polymyalgia rheumatica), the shoulder is affected. Furthermore, tumoral conditions and infections originating from bone and soft tissues in the shoulder area can also cause shoulder pain.

Advantages of ESWT Treatment in Shoulder Arthritis

Radial ESWT is increasingly used for musculoskeletal complaints, including subacromial shoulder pain with and without calcification.

ESWT appears to be beneficial in patients with frozen shoulder by relieving pain and improving function. ESWT can be used as an additional treatment to routine treatments.

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy has been proven to be effective and safe in treating shoulder pathologies, improving pain and range of motion.

Are there any side effects of ESWT Treatment in Shoulder Arthritis? If so, what are they?

No cases have been reported where shockwave therapy has caused any serious adverse effects. Common side effects seen in patients after treatment are:

• Mild redness in the treated area
• Swelling and numbness of the tissue in the treated area

ESWT Treatment for Shoulder Arthritis

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing process. It can relieve pain and promote the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues. It does this by releasing growth factors in the injured tissue.

Vibration therapy associated with shockwave therapy can provide soothing relief from arthritis and other conditions.

What is the Duration and Period of ESWT Treatment?

Typically, 3-6 treatments are performed per week, and each one lasts approximately 10-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the amount of inflammation present. It can be performed in a standard treatment room and no special medications are needed before the treatment. Anesthesia is not required, and most people tolerate the treatment well. Topical anesthesia can be applied to the treatment area with cream at the patient's request.

What is Calcific Tendinitis?

Calcific tendinitis is defined as one of the most common causes of shoulder pain. In calcific tendinitis, calcium deposits form in a tendon, and this condition causes pain in the affected area. Tendinitis is the inflammation and irritation of fibrous tissues called tendons, which attach muscles to bones. It can occur in any tendon in the body but is most often seen in the shoulder, knee, wrist, elbow, and ankle. Calcific tendinitis manifests itself with severe pain in the shoulder area. These pains occur especially in the evening and at night and can also limit mobility. Long-term pain and immobility can lead to muscle weakness and loss of strength.

The treatment of tendinitis primarily requires immobilizing the affected tendons, restricting their movement, and resting them. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the area around the affected tendon is effective in reducing inflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs play an important role in the treatment. In patients who do not respond to these treatments, a steroid drug or PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injection can be tried around the inflamed tendon.
