At 6-month follow-up, clinical improvement was evaluated by using a 10-cm visual analog scale and the rearfoot score of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society. Results were analyzed using sample\n                    <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                    -tests within groups and repeated-measures analyses of variance between groups. Mean \u00b1 SD visual analog scale scores in the peppering technique, autologous blood injection, and corticosteroid injection groups improved from 6.4 \u00b1 1.1, 7.6 \u00b1 1.3, and 7.28 \u00b1 1.2 to 2.0 \u00b1 2.2 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .001), 2.4 \u00b1 1.8 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .001), and 2.57 \u00b1 2.9 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .001), respectively. Mean \u00b1 SD rearfoot scores in the same groups improved from 64.1 \u00b1 15.1, 71.6 \u00b1 1, and 65.7 \u00b1 12.7 to 78.2 \u00b1 12.4 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .018), 80.9 \u00b1 13.9 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .025), and 80.07 \u00b1 17.5 (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .030), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences among the groups. Good outcomes have been documented using the peppering technique and autologous blood injection for the treatment of lateral epicondylitis. Although the curative mechanisms of both injection modalities are based on a hypothesis, they seem to be good alternatives to corticosteroid injection for the treatment of plantar heel pain.
