Platelet rich plasma (PRP) uses a concentration of patient’s own blood to help in the healing process of injured and diseased tendons, ligaments and joints. A small amount of your own blood is taken and is spun in a centrifuge machine, which separates red blood cells and plasma. The Platelet rich plasma is then separated and injected by Mr Janipireddy to your specific point in the body. It has been shown to have 70-80% benefit in some conditions of muscle and tendon tear. The common conditions where it is used by Mr Janipireddy are:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendinitis
- Knee arthritis
- Patellar tendinopathy
