PRP Joint Injections

Non-Stem Cell Injections:

  1. Hyaluronic Acid
  2. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
  3. Cortisone Injections
A doctor wearing gloves administers an injection into a patient's knee, possibly for pain relief, joint therapy, or medical treatment.

Cortisone Injections

Cortisone injections deliver a potent anti-inflammatory steroid medication directly to the affected area. Cortisone is a corticosteroid that works by suppressing the immune response and reducing inflammation, thereby providing relief from pain and swelling. It is typically used for conditions involving chronic inflammation and pain.

Benefits:

  • Pain Relief: Provides rapid pain relief by reducing inflammation in affected joints or soft tissues.
  • Reduces Swelling: Helps to control swelling and inflammation, improving joint function and mobility.
  • Minimally Invasive: Offers a non-surgical option with a quick recovery time.
  • Effective for Chronic Conditions: Especially beneficial for conditions that involve long-term inflammation, such as arthritis or bursitis.
  • Cost-Effective: A more affordable treatment option compared to surgery or prolonged physical therapy.

Who Can Benefit from Cortisone Injections?

  • Osteoarthritis: Relieves joint pain and swelling, improving mobility in individuals with arthritis.
  • Bursitis: Reduces inflammation and provides pain relief in inflamed bursa sacs, such as in the shoulder or hip.
  • Tendonitis: Helps alleviate pain and inflammation in tendons, such as tennis elbow or Achilles tendonitis.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: Provides relief from flare-ups in individuals with autoimmune conditions.
  • Joint Inflammation: Effective for inflammatory conditions like gout or psoriatic arthritis.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is a key component of both articular cartilage and synovial fluid, playing an essential role in joint health.

Functions:

Lubricates the joint to enhance mobility.

Provides resilience to cartilage, contributing to joint function.

Other Key Roles:

  • Major component of skin: Crucial for tissue repair and hydration.
  • Extracellular Matrix: Plays a vital role in tissue regeneration.
  • Regulation of inflammation: Acts as a mediator in the body’s inflammatory response.
  • Angiogenesis: Supports the formation of new blood vessels to promote healing.

Who Can Benefit from Hyaluronic Acid Injections?

  • Osteoarthritis: Reduces inflammation and alleviates bone-to-bone pain.
  • Tendinopathies: Offers a non-invasive alternative to NSAIDs.
  • Plantar Fasciitis: Helps manage pain and inflammation.
  • ACL & PCL Injuries: Aids in healing and joint function.
  • Meniscal Injuries: Supports the repair and regeneration of cartilage.

Benefits:

  • Minimal Risk: Offers a safer alternative to high-risk surgeries.
  • Promotes Healing: Accelerates the recovery of soft tissue.
  • Pain Relief: Reduces pain, stiffness, and disability, enhancing quality of life.
  • Safer to use in Diabetics patients compared to steroids injections

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

PRP injections involve the use of a concentrated solution of the patient’s own platelets, derived from a sample of their blood. These platelets are rich in growth factors that promote healing, tissue regeneration, and reduce inflammation. The blood is processed to concentrate the platelets, which are then injected into the site of injury or inflammation to stimulate the body’s natural healing process.

Benefits:

  • Tissue Regeneration: Stimulates the repair of damaged tissues, particularly in tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
  • Reduced Inflammation: Helps decrease inflammation by promoting the natural healing process.
  • Pain Reduction: Alleviates pain through the regeneration of damaged tissues and by reducing inflammation.
  • Faster Healing: Accelerates recovery time by enhancing the body’s repair mechanisms.
  • Minimally Invasive: A non-surgical alternative with minimal downtime compared to traditional surgery.

Who Can Benefit from PRP Injections?

  • Osteoarthritis: Helps reduce symptoms and slow down the progression of joint degeneration.
  • Tendinopathies: Effective for chronic tendon injuries, including tendinitis and tendinosis (e.g., rotator cuff, patellar tendinopathy).
  • Ligament Injuries: Promotes healing of ligament sprains or tears.
  • Muscle Strains: Aids recovery from muscle injuries, including tears or strains.
  • Chronic Inflammation Conditions: Helps manage inflammation in conditions such as plantar fasciitis or tennis elbow.

Other Key Roles:

  • Major component of skin: Crucial for tissue repair and hydration.
  • Extracellular Matrix: Plays a vital role in tissue regeneration.
  • Regulation of inflammation: Acts as a mediator in the body’s inflammatory response.
  • Angiogenesis: Supports the formation of new blood vessels to promote healing.
