PRP Injection for Knee Osteoarthritis: Benefits and Patient GuidancePlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment for knee osteoarthritis that utilizes concentrated growth factors from a patient's blood to promote tissue healing and reduce pain. Ideal for early to moderate osteoarthritis stages, PRP can improve joint function, potentially delaying the need for knee replacement. The procedure…Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment for knee osteoarthritis that utilizes concentrated growth factors from a patient's blood to promote tissue healing and reduce pain. Ideal for early to moderate osteoarthritis stages, PRP can improve joint function, potentially delaying the need for knee replacement. The procedure has minimal risks, with short-term side effects like mild pain or swelling. Recovery involves short-term rest and tailored physiotherapy to enhance outcomes. Adopting joint-friendly lifestyle habits further supports long-term knee health. PRP effectiveness varies by individual, with most patients experiencing symptom relief within 4 to 6 weeks. Careful patient evaluation is essential to optimize safety and results. This treatment represents a promising alternative to traditional therapies, focusing on regenerative healing rather than symptom masking.
