Aim:To compare the platelet-rich plasma therapy and corticosteroid injection in themanagement of planter fasciitis. Methods: The prospective clinical trial was carried out at the Department of Orthopaedics. The research involved 40 patients who were randomly assigned to one of two groups: PRP (n=20) or Steroid (n=20). 25-27 ml of blood was taken from the cubital vein and deposited in a glass tube with 3 ml of citrate dextrose solution to make plateletrich plasma (ratio 9:1). To avoid clotting, a citrate dextrose solution was utilised. For 10-13 minutes, the blood was centrifuged at 3300 rpm. The top buffy coat yielded 3ml of PRP preparation
