Knee Pain and PRP Injections

An injury to your knee can be hard to heal. You use your knees for almost every activity you perform that involves walking or standing. It's hard to rest your knees when you use them so much. At Sarasota Chiropractic, Physical Therapy, & Massage in Sarasota, FL, we offer PRP injections as one of our state-of-the-art treatment options for knee pain.

What Are PRP Injections?

Platelet-rich plasma injections are an effective knee pain treatment used to help the body repair itself at the cellular level. Platelet-rich plasma is injected into the injured area of your knee where it provides your body with the additional resources it needs to make repairs to damaged cells or stimulate the growth of new, healthier cells. This lessens your healing time and makes the joint stronger.

How Do PRP Injections Work?

Your doctor will draw your blood and separate the plasma from the red platelets. We will collect all the platelets and then combine them with growth factors and place them back into a much smaller amount of plasma. This new matrix will then be reinjected into your body near where the damage is located in your knee. The condensed number of platelets will begin to support the growth and healing of new cells.
