Chronic wounds, often caused by diabetes, poor circulation, and pressure, can lead to severe complications like infection and tissue necrosis if untreated. PRP, derived from a patient's blood, accelerates healing by promoting collagen production and blood vessel formation, especially aiding slow-healing wounds such as tendons and ligaments. Short-term side effects include pain and swelling at the injection site, while long-term complications are linked to improper application. Monitoring post-injection is crucial, and physical therapy might aid recovery by improving mobility and muscle strength.
