Abstract
Hindfoot pain is a common clinical problem that can be due to multiple alterations, it can appear due to bone or soft tissue causes, it is established in a small anatomical area. There are different methods of treatment for these conditions, ranging from simple guidelines in lifestyle to surgery. In this work, patients are divided into four groups with different treatment methods, each group was assigned a different therapeutic option, which will increase its degree of invasion as the number of the group increases. Infiltration with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a new technique of cell regenerative therapy and was applied in one of the groups, taking advantage of the regenerative, healing and anti-inflammatory properties of the mentioned therapy.

Summary
The skeleton of the foot consists of three parts: the tarsus, the metatarsal, and the phalanges. The calcaneus is the longest of the tarsal bones It is located at the bottom and back of the foot, helping to transmit the weight of the body to the ground, and forming a firm lever for the leg muscles. It is an irregular bone with a cuboid shape, directing its axis along the foot and presenting six surfaces for examination. The talus is the second largest bone in the foot It occupies the middle and upper part of the tarsus, supporting the tibia, resting on the calcaneus, articulating on each side with the malleoli, and on the front with the navicular [1]
