Clinical Trial: Is Exercise Program Added to Corticosteroid Injection Effective on Pain and Performance in Plantar Fasciitis?

U.S., April 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06917937) titled 'Is Exercise Program Added to Corticosteroid Injection Effective on Pain and Performance in Plantar Fasciitis?' on March 28.
