Traditional treatment for hip joint arthritis often consists of pain medication or surgery but at the institute of regenerative medicine we use stem cell therapy to rebuild and regenerate the cartilage and fluid within their hip joints therefore improving and even potentially curing the patient s hip.
Stem cell therapy for arthritic hips.
Stem cells are unique in that they can develop into any type of cell for example cells that help repair damaged tissue.
Because we harvest the stem cells and prp for the patient s blood instead of other sources the virtually no risk of rejection or harm to the.
Stem cells treatments are booming with procedures for knee arthritis especially popular.
When injected into an arthritic hip stem cells may encourage the damaged cartilage to regrow and heal.
I ve looked into stem cell therapy and found that mayo can do it but it s not cheap and health insurance doesn t pay for it.
Cell therapy for hips very well could be the future frontier of hip treatments.
While stem cell therapy is a promising technology there is much we are still learning about the causes and pathways that lead to symptomatic osteoarthritis.
Thank you coleen for the information.
I have two painful hips and do not want hip replacements.
Stem cell therapy for hip joints is a safe alternative to hip replacement or surgery since stem cells and platelet rich plasma prp are biological components that already exist in the human body.
Injections of stem cells also reduce inflammation.
Arthritis pain of the hip is often caused by a lack of cartilage around the hip joints.
All treatments for hip osteoarthritis aim to manage pain and improve mobility but the right option will depend on the individual.
I ve just found out that mayo offers stem cell therapy which gives me higher confidence in the quality of the procedure however i m wondering if someone had a first hand experience of stem cell injection into hip for advanced arthritis.
New studies government approved clinical trials from around the globe and patient testimonials continue to point to the potential benefits using regenerative medicine for hips could offer even as an alternative to surgery.
But sometimes those treatments come without scientific evidence to support how well they work.
