12 Apr Can Stem Cell Therapy replace Hip Replacement?
Chronic hip pain can be truly debilitating. And in many cases, the only available treatment is hip surgery. Hip surgery is a major surgery and carries many risks, such as bleeding, infection, blood clots, issues due to anesthesia, long and painful recovery and more.
However, now there is an alternative to invasive hip surgery!
Stem cell treatment for Hip Pain
When mobility becomes difficult due to worn away cartilage in the hip joint, stem cell treatment can stimulate the body’s natural healing processes to aid cartilage regeneration.
Stem cell treatment involves an injection procedure in which stem cells and Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is directly injected into the damaged area. Once the stem cells reach the damaged tissues, they start repairing and replacing the degenerated cartilage.
Stem cell treatments are non-surgical,outpatient treatments and relatively painless. The recovery and restoration of your joint is not only painless but also faster since you do not have to wait for any incisions to heal, as in a major hip replacement surgery.
The hip conditions that are being treated with stem cell therapy are –
- osteoarthritis
- hip bursitis
- hip arthritis, and more
on the other hand, hip replacement surgeries are risky and traumatic, followed by months of discomfort, pain medications and physical therapy.
Regenerative Stem Cell Therapy offers a better alternative to hip replacement surgery, with–
- fewer risks and complications
- faster recovery
- less pain
- no hospital stays
- improving your body’s natural ability to heal itself
Regenerative medicine therapy with stem cells rather than hip replacement is a better alternative with a more comfortable recovery and fewer risks.
