Conclusion

In the early period of follow-up, physiological changes with the treatment at the tissue were reflected as improvement in pain to the clinic. In the late period of follow-up, in addition to the pain parameter the improvements in functional parameters are consistent with the change in the tissue. Ultrasonography can be used as an objective imaging tool compatible with the clinic in follow-up.
