Stem Cell Therapy For Hip Arthritis And Pain
Stem cell therapy is one of the solutions that provide long-lasting results for hip arthritis and hip pain. However, unlike the other alternatives — such as surgery — stem cell therapy has the added benefit of being quick to work and causing less downtime and recovery.
Solutions For Hip Pain
Some people may think that surgery is their only option for hip arthritis, but at the same time, the idea of hip replacement surgery is daunting, overwhelming, confusing and scary. Surgery is a big step with no guarantee of results.
Other solutions for hip pain include:
- Painkillers: Prescription drugs and over-the-counter medicine can provide temporary relief, but they will not solve the problem. And they can cause adverse reactions in other organs.
- Cortisone shots: These shots give a short-term benefit and may relieve inflammation in a specific area of your body, but they do not last. Many patients need multiple injections and this can eventually damage tissue.
- Arthroscopic surgery of the hip: This minimally invasive procedure allows a surgeon to see inside the joint to diagnose the problem; however, it is still a major surgery. Patients often need to use crutches for several weeks.
- Hyaluronic acid gel injections: Some providers offer intra-articular injections of the knee or hip, but this has not proven to be an effective solution for hip arthritis.
Not only are these solutions ineffective over the long-term, but they also do not work for many patients. At Native Stem Cell Clinics, we have studied the alternatives and have found that stem cell therapy is often the best course of action for many people suffering from hip pain due to wear and tear of the joint.
Our patients have come to us seeking pain relief after complaining of the following symptoms:
- Having a hard time getting up from a chair
- Difficulty walking
- Difficulty with stairs
- Trouble standing for an extended time
- Physical activity is painful
- Difficulty sleeping
At Native Stem Cell Clinics, we have developed a process known as ReVivaStem®, which uses a patient’s own adult stem cells, taken from your own bone marrow and injected into the source of the pain, to regrow hyaline cartilage, the type of cartilage that covers the ends of bones in your knees, hips, shoulders and other joints. This cartilage can carry the weight of the body and repeated daily use.
Why does stem cell therapy work for hip pain? Stem cell injection therapy allows the joint to grow new cartilage, cushioning the bone and allowing for a return to everyday activity without discomfort.
How does PRP therapy help with hip injuries and joint pain? PRP therapy uses rich parts of a patient’s own blood. The platelet rich plasma is a natural anti-inflammatory agent. It is often given as a complementary therapy to stem cell treatments.
