About PRP Injections

What are PRP Injections?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are a medical treatment that involves injecting a concentration of a patient's own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints. By utilizing the patient's own healing system, PRP injections can enhance the body's natural healing process.

Why Consider PRP Injections?

PRP injections are considered for patients suffering from chronic pain or injuries that have not responded well to other treatments. Conditions such as tendonitis, ligament sprains, muscle injuries, arthritis, and chronic pain in the knee, hip, shoulder, and other joints can be effectively treated with PRP. It is a minimally invasive procedure that can reduce pain and improve function.

When are PRP Injections Necessary?

You might need to consider PRP injections if you:

Experience chronic pain that limits your daily activities and hasn't improved with other treatments.
Have tendon or ligament injuries that are slow to heal.
Suffer from osteoarthritis in the knee, hip, or shoulder.
Are looking for a minimally invasive treatment option to improve joint function and reduce pain.
Want to enhance recovery from surgery or sports injuries.

The Procedure

During a PRP injection procedure, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. The concentrated PRP is then injected directly into the injured or affected area. The entire process typically takes about one hour, and most patients can return to their daily activities immediately afterward.

Recovery Time

Recovery from PRP injections varies by individual but generally follows these milestones:

Initial Recovery: Most patients experience some soreness and mild discomfort at the injection site for a few days.
Improvement: Pain and function typically begin to improve within a few weeks of the injection.
Full Recovery: Maximum benefit is usually achieved within 3 to 6 months, as the injected PRP stimulates the healing process over time.
