About this trial

The goal of this research is to study the efficacy of treatment between PRP injection and corticosteroid injection in patients with pes anserinus bursitis. The research question is whether PRP can reduce pain more effectively than corticosteroids.

The study is divided into two groups: one group receiving PRP injections and the second group receiving corticosteroid injections. Treatment outcomes will be monitored at four time points: baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. The outcomes will be measured using the VAS and WOMAC scores.
