TURKISH MEDITERRANEAN PRP SOLUTION TO ORTHOPEDIC PROBLEMS

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy, which is often brought up by dermatological applications, is also used in the treatment of orthopedic diseases today.

In addition to muscle and tendon injuries, PRP treatment (platelet-rich plasma), which is preferred in the elimination of many problems, helps to heal in a short time, said Professor, an expert novelist in orthopedics and Traumatology Dr, answers questions about PRP treatment as follows;

.
TO WHOM CAN PRP TREATMENT BE APPLIED?

Patients receiving this treatment are grouped into two main groups: young and middle age. But 90 percent of PRP-related studies involve young active patients, that is, professional athletes. This indicates that the predominant group of patients is in their 20-30s.

.
WHAT DISEASES ARE USED IN ORTHOPEDICS?

PRP application can be applied in the treatment of acute chondral disorders as an auxiliary method with muscle and tendon injuries in Novices. In the middle age group, it can be used to treat tendinitis-epicondylitis (lateral-medial), chronic Tenosynovitis and early cartilage (arthrosis) diseases.

.
HOW IS THE TREATMENT PERFORMED?

This method is defined as a minimal interventional method that involves the delivery of platelet-rich plasma content obtained as a final product to the patient again, taking into account sterile conditions, after venous blood taken from the patient undergoes a standard procedure under sterile conditions. In this method, treatment is targeted with plasma content rich in growth and healing hormones.

.
HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT LAST?

Its duration varies depending on the patient’s diagnosis. In general, the treatment recommended once a month should last an average of 3 months. If necessary, the number of applications can be replicated if the doctor deems it appropriate. Acute muscle-tendon injuries, early small tears, one injection is sufficient; medium and large tears, 2-3 injections are applied at weekly intervals. A total of 3 injections at two-to three-week intervals for early gonarthrosis (knee calcification); a single injection is also performed for the treatment of chronic lateral/medial epicondylitis.

.
ARE THERE ANY COMPLICATIONS?

After PRP treatment, there may be burning and injection pain in the most common injection area. But these complaints soon disappear, quickly. The amount of time that professional athletes can return to the sport after novelization is of great importance. Applying early PRP to the region significantly reduces this time.

.
IN WHAT OTHER AREAS IS IT APPLIED?

Currently, in addition to orthopedics and dermatology, PRP in Turkey is frequently used in physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics, aesthetic and plastic surgery, neurology and Dentistry applications in Antalya medical holidays to Turkey.
