Knee Pain | Regenerative Health

Knees

Here are various knee conditions treated with regenerative therapies:

Knee Osteoarthritis:

This is one of the most common knee conditions, especially in older adults. Regenerative therapies can help repair damaged cartilage, reduce inflammation, and potentially restore joint function, which alleviates pain and improves mobility.

Meniscus Tears:

The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage that cushions the knee joint. When it tears, it often requires surgery. However, regenerative therapies can promote healing, particularly for tears in the outer meniscus, which has a better blood supply and potential for regeneration.

Ligament Injuries (ACL, MCL, LCL):

Ligament injuries, particularly ACL tears, are common among athletes and active individuals. Regenerative therapies can aid in the repair of these ligaments, potentially reducing recovery time and improving joint stability.

Cartilage Defects:

Damage to knee cartilage, often due to injury or wear and tear, can lead to significant pain and disability. Regenerative therapies can stimulate the repair and regrowth of cartilage tissue, potentially slowing or reversing joint deterioration.

Tendinitis and Tendon Injuries:

Overuse injuries, such as tendinitis, can cause chronic pain and inflammation in the knee. Regenerative therapies can accelerate the healing process, reducing inflammation and promoting the repair of damaged tendon tissues.

Patellar Tendonitis (Jumper's Knee):

Common in athletes who perform repetitive jumping activities, this condition affects the patellar tendon just below the kneecap. Regenerative therapies can help reduce inflammation, promote tissue healing, and potentially restore function.

Chondromalacia Patella (Runner’s Knee):

This condition involves the softening or damage of cartilage on the underside of the kneecap.

Regenerative therapies may support cartilage repair, relieve pain, and improve mobility for those suffering from this condition. Each of these conditions can benefit from regenerative therapies, which focus on healing, reducing inflammation, and potentially reversing damage to improve overall knee function. These treatments are sometimes pursued as an alternative to surgery or as a complement to post-surgical rehabilitation.
