HEEL INFILTRATIONS
Infiltrations in the heels and other enthesities represent an effective and minimally invasive solution for the relief of pain caused by heel spurs and plantar fasciitis. The combined use of xylin / procaine and corticosteroids such as dexamethasone, diprophos or homeopathic, isopathic and anthroposophic substances provides rapid and lasting relief of symptoms, improving the quality of life of patients.

The role of infiltrations in the treatment of heel pain
Infiltrations in the heels or in other areas with enthesitis are an effective treatment method to relieve the pain caused by heel spurs and plantar fasciitis. Enthesitis are inflammations where the tendons and ligaments attach to the bone, and these inflammations can cause intense pain and discomfort. Calcane spurs are bone growths on the heel that can irritate the surrounding tissues, and plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that supports the arch of the foot.
The substances used
We perform infiltrations in all areas with Xylin / Procaine, Dexamethasone or Diprophos, Homeopathic, Isopathic and Anthroposophic substances, using injectable remedies from these categories.
Xilina / Procaine: It is a local anesthetic that provides rapid pain relief in the treated area, providing immediate comfort to the patient by blocking pain signals from the nerves.
Dexamethasone or diprophos: These are corticosteroids with a strong anti-inflammatory effect, helping to reduce inflammation and long-term pain, which contributes to the healing of affected tissues.
Homeopathic substances: Homeopathic remedies are prepared by successive dilutions and are used to stimulate the body's natural ability to heal itself.
Isopathic substances: Isopathic preparations involve the use of pathogenic agents, either in diluted or modified form, to treat diseases caused by the same agents.
Anthroposophic substances: Anthroposophic remedies combine conventional medicine with the spiritual and philosophical perspectives of anthroposophy to promote holistic health.
The benefits of infiltrations for heel spurs and plantar fasciitis
Rapid pain relief: Infiltrations offer a significant reduction in pain and discomfort in the affected areas, allowing patients to resume their daily activities with less discomfort.
Reduction of inflammation: Corticosteroids administered through infiltrations help to reduce local inflammation, thus contributing to the long-term improvement of symptoms and the healing of affected tissues.
Improving functionality: By reducing pain and inflammation, the infiltrations contribute to improving the mobility and functionality of the foot, allowing patients to move more freely and without discomfort.
Minimally invasive treatment: Infiltrations are a minimally invasive procedure, which can be performed quickly and with minimal discomfort for the patient, offering an efficient alternative to surgical interventions.
Indications for heel infiltrations and other enthesities
Persistent heel pain: Patients experiencing chronic heel pain due to heel spurs or plantar fasciitis can benefit significantly from the relief provided by infiltrations.
Localized inflammation: Infiltrations are effective in reducing the inflammation caused by enthesitis, contributing to pain relief and improving the foot's functionality.
Movement limitations: People who have reduced mobility or difficulties in performing daily activities due to heel pain can notice significant improvements following the treatment with infiltrations.
Post-traumatic recovery: Patients recovering from foot trauma can benefit from infiltrations to speed up healing and reduce pain and inflammation.
The infiltration procedure
The infiltrations are carried out by a specialist in sterile conditions, using precise techniques to locate the areas affected by heel spurs or plantar fasciitis. The procedure involves:
Patient evaluation: The specialist identifies painful areas and enthesitis by palpation and clinical evaluation.
Preparation of the treatment area: The treatment area is disinfected and prepared for infiltration.
Administration of xylin: The local anesthetic is injected to numb the area and reduce the discomfort of the procedure.
Injection of dexamethasone or diprophos: Anti-inflammatory substances are precisely administered to the affected areas to reduce pain and inflammation.
