USE OF PROLOTHERAPY AND PRP IN PAIN TREATMENTS

 

Pain is a sensory, unpleasant sensation related to a person's past experiences, arising from any part of the body, accompanied by real or potential tissue damage. Pain is always subjective to the individual.
Pain in the musculoskeletal system is always accompanied by connective tissue damage. It is not necessary for there to be a single, major trauma for pain to occur. Situations such as daily activities, repetitive simple movements, and living a life away from sports activities can also cause damage to the connective tissue. As the cartilage, tendons and ligaments that make up the connective tissue are damaged, their load-bearing capacity decreases and when the critical limit is exceeded, pain and loss of function occur. If the damage is not repaired by the body, the pain becomes chronic. Depending on the location of the damage in the connective tissue, diseases such as herniated disc, knee calcification, heel spur, etc. occur and all of the resulting conditions are results. Focusing on the consequences of the problem rather than its source does not solve the problem. Neither using painkillers nor having surgery will heal this connective tissue damage. Physiotherapy or manual therapy targets the muscle tissue, thus relieving the spasm and providing temporary relief.
Prolotherapy stimulates wound healing mechanisms with the injection of proliferating solution, thereby repairing and reshaping the tissues.
Prolotherapy is a treatment method that provides natural healing.
The aim of prolotherapy is to renew and reshape these damaged joints, tendons and ligaments by stimulating them with proliferating solutions.
Prolotherapy treatment is an injection method that is personalized and applied for periods of 15-30 days. The injected liquid is not a chemical substance, medicine or steroid (cortisone, etc.); A combination of concentrated dextrose and diluted local anesthetic is used. The tissue is naturally regenerated in its original form. One of the most striking aspects of the Prolotherapy method is that there is no physical restriction or rest during the treatment.
"Platelet rich plasma" is the abbreviated name of the application of platelet (thrombocyte) enriched plasma. "Platelet rich plasma" is obtained by separating a small amount of blood taken from a person into its components. It is the process of returning the diluted plasma to the same person by injection.
PRP system is a method that helps regenerate tissues in the area where it is injected into the body. With PRP injection, collagen production in the connective tissue structure is stimulated. PRP can be obtained by using a series of solutions in the laboratory environment. It can also be obtained by using ready-made kits specific to this purpose, such as: An average of 3-5 ml of PRP is obtained from every 10 ml of blood. Therefore, the injection volume is also limited.
