Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a treatment that has evidence to relieve pain that is offered in the clinic setting. This therapy shows potential to speed healing after injury.  Blood is made up of plasma, white blood cells, red blood cells, ad platelets. Plasma is the liquid part of your blood, that is mostly made of water and protein. The plasma of your blood allows the platelets, red and white blood cells to move throughout the bloodstream. Platelets are the cells in the blood that makes your blood clot and is involved in the body’s healing process. The body’s initial reaction when an injury occurs is to send platelets to the injured area medical literature is showing PRP can stimulate repair through the release of growth factors and attraction of stem cells to the site.  The concentrated platelet-rich plasma drawn in our clinic is injected into and around your injury site, which again studies show triggers your system to begin repairing and rebuilding tissue. PRP therapy is used during surgery and to treat arthritis, tendonitis, fractures, and injuries such as tendon and ligament tears.

What is PRP treatment used for?

PRP injections are utilized for a variety of conditions, ranging from musculoskeletal pain and injuries to cosmetic procedures.

Tendon, Ligament, Muscle, and Joint Injuries PRP injections can treat a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. For instance, chronic tendon injuries like tennis elbow or jumper’s knee often take a long time to heal. Incorporating PRP shots into the treatment regimen can stimulate the healing process, reduce pain, and enable a quicker return to activities.

Post-surgical Healing Initially, clinicians used PRP to accelerate healing after jaw or plastic surgeries. Now, post-surgical PRP injections have expanded to aid in the healing of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, which typically have long recovery times.

Osteoarthritis Early studies suggest that PRP injections may help alleviate osteoarthritis pain and stiffness by modulating the joint environment and reducing inflammation. However, research in this area is ongoing.



What are the possible risks of platelet-rich plasma injections?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are minimally invasive and rarely cause side effects. Since PRP is derived entirely from the patient’s own body, there is no risk of rejection or disease transmission. The most common side effects are mild discomfort, pain, or stiffness at the injection site.
