Knee Arthritis Treatment in Ludhiana

With arthritis, the joints are affected by inflammation. Typical are pain even at rest and at night, stiffness on waking that lasts more than 30 minutes, swelling, redness and a warm joint. Possible causes: autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, infections, gout and psoriasis.

PRP may be used in rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis to help reduce local inflammation, pain and swelling. Growth factors released by platelets influence the immune response and tissue repair. It complements, but does not replace, the treatment prescribed by your rheumatologist.

A complete cure for psoriatic arthritis, a chronic disease, is not currently possible. What we aim for is long remission — control of inflammation and prevention of joint deformity — and regenerative injections can form one part of that plan.

Damaged tissue in the joint can be supported in its repair by the cells in SVF, which also modulate the local immune response. Research continues, so the doctor will set out realistic expectations for your type of arthritis.

It is not done if there is an active joint infection, a severe flare, pregnancy, cancer or a blood clotting disorder. The doctor then postpones the procedure or offers another option.

An autoimmune reaction, infection or gout can inflame the knee — that is knee arthritis, with redness, warmth, marked swelling and tenderness to touch. Osteoarthritis is cartilage wear, usually noticed as a dry crunch and aching pain when the knee moves.

Inflammation stimulates the pain receptors in the joint constantly — on movement, at rest and at night. Treatment that aims to reduce inflammation, PRP and SVF included, can ease this pain.

No. Pregnancy rules out joint injections, including PRP and SVF, and arthritis treatment in pregnancy is decided only jointly with a rheumatologist and an obstetrician.

Yes. Once you send your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood test results, a doctor reviews them at no cost and says whether regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis.

Without treatment, it may lead to lasting deformity of the joint, loss of function, osteoporosis and harm to internal organs such as the kidneys, lungs and heart. Treating it in time prevents these complications.
