How PRP Therapy Helps You Avoid Surgery and Heal Naturally
When joint or tendon pain becomes persistent, surgery might seem like the only answer — but PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy offers a natural, effective alternative. This advanced regenerative treatment harnesses your own blood to stimulate healing where it’s needed most.
Here’s the process: your doctor draws a small amount of blood (about 15–30 ml), spins it in a centrifuge to separate platelet-rich plasma, and injects it directly into the damaged tissue. These concentrated platelets release growth factors that accelerate repair and reduce inflammation.
PRP therapy is effective for knee osteoarthritis, golfer’s elbow, plantar fasciitis, and chronic back or neck pain. It’s non-surgical, safe, and carries minimal risk since the injection uses your own blood. Patients often resume normal activities within one or two days.
Post-treatment care is simple — avoid anti-inflammatory medications for a week, apply ice if needed, and continue light physiotherapy exercises. Mild soreness or swelling is temporary and usually subsides quickly.
At Minchu Health Care Orthopaedic Department, PRP therapy is performed under expert supervision to ensure maximum precision and comfort. For many, it’s the perfect middle path between conventional treatment and surgery — allowing the body to heal itself, naturally and effectively.
