Shoulder Conditions Treated Using Platelet Rich Plasma

Houston PRP Doctor, Darryl S. Camp, M.D. can help patients to alleviate their shoulder conditions using specialized treatment plans. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to improve a wide range of shoulder conditions, some of which may include:

The rotator cuff is comprised of four major muscles, which include the supraspinatus, infraspinatous, subscapularis, and the teres minor. Injuries to the rotator cuff muscles are very common and can lead to pain, inflammation, and reduced range of motion. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help muscles to repair and improve overall shoulder function.

Stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint are characteristic of frozen shoulder, and signs and symptoms often start out gradually, while worsening over time. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to resolve the symptoms of frozen shoulder, allowing patients to regain function, while reducing pain in their shoulder joints.

Bursa sacs are fluid filled sacs that help muscles to smoothly glide over the bones. Overuse of the shoulder can lead to inflammation within the bursa, causing pain at the acromion and throughout the shoulder joint. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to reduce this inflammation, allowing patients to naturally reduce their pain.

The tendons in the shoulder work as cords that connect the muscles to the bone, and over time, they can become worn down. As the tendons begin to lose their agility, men and women may experience tendonitis or tears within the tendons. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to reduce the pain that results from tendonitis, while also restoring torn or worn down tendons.

In patients that suffer from impingement, the acromion puts pressure on the bursa sacs and the rotator cuff tendons when the arm is lifted. Over time, many patients with this condition suffer from reduced range of motion, bursitis, and rotator cuff tears. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help patients to prevent the consequences of impingement, while improving the range of movement within the shoulder.

When the head of the arm bone is forced out of the socket or partially out of the socket, the tendons, ligaments, and muscles around the shoulder can become loser or torn, causing the shoulder joint to become unstable. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to repair the damage caused from dislocation, allowing the shoulder joint to regain overall function and movement.

Many men and women suffer from arthritis, which tends to worsen with aging. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can help to reduce the pain and inflammation in the tissues of the shoulder joint, allowing patients to naturally reduce pain and improve recurrences of arthritis.

What are some of the benefits of PRP for shoulder issues?

PRP Shoulder treatments provide patients with many unique benefits that other therapies do not. Some advantages of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy shoulder injections include:

Accelerated Healing

With its powerful growth factors, Platelet-Rich Plasma stimulates healing at the site of injection and helps to regenerate tendons, ligaments, and fascia.

No Down Time

There is no recovery time associated with PRP Therapy itself, so if your injury does not require surgery, you can get your injections and be on your way in about an hour.

Painless

Aside from a small amount of pressure at the injection site, most patients say that PRP Therapy is totally painless.

Pain-Relieving

As your Platelet-Rich Plasma works to restore soft tissues, it can relieve pain caused by overuse, scar tissue, injuries and even recent surgery. Many patients eliminate or reduce their reliance on painkillers following PRP Therapy treatments.

Low Risk

Because the platelets and growth factors in Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy are from your own body, there is no risk of allergic reactions, infections or rejection.

How does Platelet Rich Plasma improve shoulder conditions?

PRP or Platelet-rich plasma consists of just two elements: plasma, or the liquid portion of blood, and platelets, a type of blood cell that plays an important role in healing throughout the body. Platelets are well-known for their clotting abilities, but they also contain growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area. Platelet-rich plasma is simply blood that contains more platelets than normal.

Harvesting PRP involves drawing a patient’s blood and processing the blood so that only the enriched cells (platelet-rich plasma) remain. PRP cells are injected into the shoulder or treatment area.

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy uses platelets and growth factors from the patient’s own blood to stimulate the production of stem cells within the shoulder’s tissues. When platelets are present, stem cells immediate come to the site of the platelets.

Stem cells can grow into any type of tissue in the human body, and they work to grow new flesh, while repairing any type of injury or inflammation. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy helps to repair numerous types of shoulder problems, while helping patients to reduce pain and regain full function of their shoulders.

At OB Men we use ultra-sound guided needle placement and the latest in PRP, and other regenerative techniques. We also employ peptide therapy which has shown impressive results with regards to healing. Some injuries that take more time to recover are those related to muscles and ligaments. We use a peptide that allows faster healing process bringing an excellent advantage to injured athletes to achieve their recovery in less time.
