This study aimed to compare 2 intralesional injection therapies for plantar fasciitis: corticosteroid and botulinum toxin A, compared with a third control group using a local anesthetic. The clinical evolution, as well as changes in the thickness of the plantar fascia and ankle dorsiflexion, was evaluated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A randomized, controlled, double-blind trial design was used. Patients were divided into 3 groups: group 1, anesthetic only; group 2, corticosteroid; and group 3, botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A). We used an ultrasonographic evaluation to measure the plantar fascia thickness. The results were evaluated using the Maryland Foot Score and a 10-cm visual analog scale. Clinical scores were recorded at the beginning of the study, at 2 weeks, and at 1, 3, and 6 months. We evaluated 78 patients for study eligibility. The 3 intervention groups were homogeneous.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>All patients showed better clinical outcomes compared with their initial evaluations, without differences between groups at the end of follow-up. The thickness of plantar fascia diminished at the final evaluation, and ankle dorsiflexion was better compared with the initial values without difference between treatment groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Considering all the evaluated outcomes, no significant differences between treatment groups were observed.
