What Is a PRP Injection?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is derived from the patient’s own blood. After processing, the platelet-rich portion—loaded with growth factors—is injected into the injured area to stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.

Growth factors in PRP help:

Repair damaged cartilage, tendons, and ligaments
Improve blood supply to injured tissues
Reduce chronic inflammation

Conditions Treated with PRP Injection

PRP injections are commonly used for:

Knee osteoarthritis
Shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
Ligament injuries (ACL, MCL)
Tendinitis and bursitis
Sports injuries
Chronic muscle and tendon pain

Early-stage joint degeneration responds particularly well to PRP therapy.

Symptoms That May Indicate the Need for PRP Injection

You may benefit from PRP injection if you experience:

Persistent joint pain or stiffness
Pain during movement or sports
Swelling or inflammation around joints
Reduced range of motion
Injury-related pain not improving with rest or physiotherapy

Non-Surgical and Lifestyle Care Along with PRP

PRP injections work best when combined with:

Physiotherapy and strengthening exercises
Activity modification
Weight management for joint protection
Proper posture and ergonomics
Nutritional support for healing

Dr. Rupali Gupta customizes treatment plans to ensure optimal recovery.

PRP Injection Procedure

The procedure includes:

Drawing a small sample of the patient’s blood
Processing it in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets
Injecting PRP into the affected joint or tissue under sterile conditions

The procedure is minimally invasive, usually completed within 30 minutes, and does not require hospital admission.

PRP Injection vs Conventional Treatments

Unlike painkillers or steroid injections that provide temporary relief, PRP addresses the root cause by promoting tissue regeneration. It offers longer-lasting benefits with minimal side effects, especially in early to moderate joint conditions.

Benefits of PRP Injection

Uses the body’s natural healing mechanism
Non-surgical and minimally invasive

Improves joint mobility and function
Minimal downtime and quick recovery
Safe with very low risk of side effects
