... Compared to sham-ESWT or ultrasoundguided needling, ESWT emerges as a preferable treatment option. While the precise mechanisms underlying ESWT's effectiveness in addressing RC tendinopathy are not fully elucidated, it is believed to involve stimulating the body's natural healing processes, releasing growth factors, improving blood circulation, and mitigating inflammation within the affected tendon [139,140]. Furthermore, ESWT demonstrates an analgesic effect, aiding in pain reduction among individuals with RC tendinopathy. However, according to the results of this meta-analysis, the use of ESWT in patients with PT had no significant impact on pain reduction. ...
