Are these symptoms affecting your quality of life?
There are different approaches to managing arthritis, depending on the type of arthritis, the joint affected and the severity of your symptoms. PRP Treatment is one option that can help benefit your arthritis for some people.
When Should You Seek Advice?
Consider seeking medical advice if joint pain or stiffness is persistent, getting worse, affecting your mobility, disturbing your sleep or preventing you from doing activities you would normally enjoy.
​
It is also important to speak to your GP or another appropriate healthcare professional if you are concerned about arthritis or have ongoing joint symptoms. They can help assess your symptoms, determine whether arthritis is the likely cause and, where appropriate, arrange further assessment or investigations.
​
Not every painful or stiff joint is caused by arthritis, and different types of arthritis and joint conditions can require different approaches to treatment. Establishing the underlying cause of your symptoms is therefore an important first step before considering any treatment.
Could PRP Treatment be an Option for Arthritic Joint Pain?
Exploring a regenerative approach using your own platelets
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses a concentrated preparation of platelets obtained from a patient's own blood. Platelets contain a range of naturally occurring growth factors and proteins involved in the body's normal healing and repair processes. PRP is used in some musculoskeletal settings as a treatment option for certain joint and tendon conditions.
​
For people experiencing joint pain associated with arthritis, PRP may be discussed as one potential treatment approach where it is considered clinically appropriate. However, suitability can vary depending on the underlying cause of the joint symptoms, the severity and location of the condition, and the individual's overall health and circumstances.
​
At JG Aesthetics, every patient is assessed on an individual basis before treatment is considered. This allows your symptoms, medical history and treatment goals to be discussed, helping to establish whether PRP may be a suitable option for you.
