Joint and Tendon Treatment with Plasma Injections

Treating joints and tendons with plasma injections, or PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), is a medical procedure used to stimulate the healing process and strengthen damaged tissues in joints and tendons.

Mechanism:

PRP is obtained by drawing a small sample of the patient's blood, and then the plasma is separated from other blood components using a centrifuge. The resulting plasma, which contains a high concentration of platelets and growth factors, is then injected into the targeted joints or tendons.

Benefits:

• Promoting Healing: PRP enhances the natural renewal and healing process.
• Reducing Inflammation: PRP contains anti-inflammatory factors that help reduce swelling.
• Improving Function: It can assist in improving the functions of affected joints and tendons.
• Pain Reduction: Contributes to reducing pain associated with injuries and inflammation.
