How Can You Benefit from a Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection?

For those that suffer from conditions that cause chronic pain, finding a solution that actually works can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Fortunately, the experts at Angelo Mattalino, MD in Phoenix, AZ offer revolutionary regenerative medicine solutions to treat chronic pain and other conditions, such as platelet-rich plasma injection treatments.

Studies have shown that regenerative medicine treatments can successfully treat conditions ranging from arthritis to sports injuries, and a platelet-rich plasma injection can drastically reduce pain and help repair damaged tissues. If you are suffering from chronic pain, see how platelet-rich plasma injections can help you heal.

How Do Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections Work?

The main goal of platelet-rich plasma injections is to relieve pain and stimulate your body’s ability to recover from damage. The treatments are made up of an all-natural solution that is made using your own blood. Injections are made using your blood sample that is then spun in a centrifuge. This process will separate components in your blood, allowing platelets to merge with blood plasma and creating the solution that will be used for the injection.

The solution will then be injected into the affected area, and from there, it will begin working to rebuild cartilage and soft tissue by enhancing the inflammatory response to stimulate healing. Injured areas are supplied with bioactive growth factors, cytokines and natural proteins that will help speed up recovery and healing.

What Conditions Can a Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Help Treat?

Platelet-rich plasma injections are currently being used to treat a host of chronic conditions and injuries. They are a revolutionary alternative that is particularly effective in sports medicine, and they have been proven to work more effectively than the traditional RICE protocol in many cases. For this reason, they are growing in popularity for treating sports injuries.

The treatments will also reduce inflammation in the body, which is key in treating arthritic conditions. For this reason, platelet-rich plasma injection treatments are being used to treat arthritis to help reduce inflammation in the joints and repair damaged tissue. Treatments are especially helpful with those with degenerative knee cartilage and can drastically improve pain.

Arthritis and sports injuries are some of the most common conditions being treated with platelet-rich plasma injections at this time, but they can also help many other conditions, such as:

  • Torn ligaments
  • Bulging, herniated discs
  • Sciatic nerve pain
  • Hand injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Chronic pain, especially in the neck, lower back, knees or shoulders
  • Loss of flexibility and range of motion

What are the Benefits?

There are many benefits that you can experience after platelet-rich plasma injections. The key benefits of the treatment include:

  • Pain reduction, especially pain that has not responded to other treatments
  • Reduces lower back pain
  • Can completely heal plantar fasciitis
  • Can decrease osteoarthritis symptoms
  • Can decrease symptoms of tendonitis
