Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

What Are PRP Injections?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that utilizes the patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue repair. PRP contains a high concentration of platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive substances that stimulate the body’s natural healing response.

Why Use PRP Injections?

PRP therapy is designed to accelerate the healing process, reduce inflammation, and enhance tissue regeneration. It is commonly used in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries, chronic pain conditions, and degenerative joint diseases. By harnessing the body’s own healing capabilities, PRP offers a non-surgical option for pain relief and recovery.

Conditions Treated with PRP Injections

Tendon Injuries (e.g., Achilles tendinopathy, patellar tendinopathy, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, rotator cuff injuries)
Ligament Sprains (e.g., partial ACL or MCL sprains, ankle sprains)
Joint Osteoarthritis (e.g., knee, hip, shoulder, wrist, and ankle osteoarthritis)
Muscle Tears (e.g., hamstring, quadriceps, calf muscle injuries)
Plantar Fasciitis (chronic heel pain due to inflammation of the plantar fascia)
PRP therapy is effective in managing a variety of conditions, including
Chronic Pain Syndromes (e.g., degenerative joint disease, post-surgical tissue healing)

Benefits of PRP Therapy

Accelerated Healing: Stimulates tissue repair and regeneration.
Minimally Invasive: Utilizes the patient’s own blood to enhance recovery.
Reduced Inflammation: Helps manage pain and swelling without reliance on medications.
Non-Surgical Alternative: Avoids the risks associated with surgery while providing effective relief.
Promotes Long-Term Recovery: Encourages tissue strengthening and functional improvement.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Blood (Draw) collection: A small sample of the patient’s blood is collected.
Processing: The blood is centrifuged to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components.
Ultrasound-Guided Injection: The PRP is carefully injected into the affected area under ultrasound guidance.
Post-Injection Care: Patients are advised to limit strenuous activities for a short period while the healing process begins.
Follow-Up Appointments: Progress is monitored to assess the effectiveness of the treatment and determine the need for additional sessions.
