Ankle Pain

Regenerative Medicine for Ankle Pain

At Southern Pain & Spine Specialists in Charlotte, we use regenerative medicine as part of our pain management strategy. Regenerative medicine is a cutting-edge medical technique that harnesses the body’s natural healing abilities by using its own cells.

These procedures, known as stem cell therapy and PRP therapy, involve interventions using body-derived stem cells and platelets. These treatments can relieve ankle pain without the need for surgery. In addition, recovery from these procedures is quicker than from conventional therapy, and they enable you to return to work and your favorite activities by restoring functionality to your injured ankles.

Regenerative Medicine – PRP Therapy for the Ankle

PRP therapy uses concentrated platelets from the patient’s blood, which is a safe and efficient regenerative medical procedure. By delivering growth factors to injured sites, the non-surgical treatment procedure accelerates the healing process by leveraging the body’s natural ability to heal. Injured areas can recover more quickly thanks to the procedure’s ability to reduce swelling, pain, and inflammation. Common ankle conditions like arthritis, ankle sprains, ankle stress fractures, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendinitis can all be successfully treated with PRP therapy.

Stem Cell Therapy for Ankle Pain

One of the most effective regenerative medical treatments for conditions and pain in the ankle is stem cell therapy. In this procedure, diseased and damaged tissues, including the tendons and ligaments of the ankle joints, are repaired using special cells found in the body. Stem cell therapy is effective for treating a variety of ankle conditions, including arthritis and various types of ankle injuries, regardless of the severity of your foot and ankle conditions.

Patients can anticipate the following benefits from the groundbreaking procedure:

An very minimally invasive treatment is stem cell therapy. As a result, you are shielded against the possibility of invasive surgery as well as additional risks like bleeding, structural damage, and the possibility of infections following surgery.

Instead than only treating the symptoms, stem cell treatment targets the cause of the discomfort. As a result, recuperation happens more quickly and without the need for painkillers.

Since stem cell therapy employs the patient’s own cells, there is little possibility of negative side effects.

Numerous ankle problems, including arthritis, Achilles tendon injuries, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, and ankle sprains, can be treated with stem cell therapy.
