Arthritis Treatment in Zarqa

Joint inflammation defines arthritis. It typically brings pain at rest and at night, morning stiffness that lasts more than 30 minutes, swelling, redness and warmth over the joint. Autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, infections, gout and psoriasis can all lead to it.

PRP can play a part in rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis by helping reduce local inflammation, swelling and pain. Platelets release growth factors that influence tissue repair and the immune response. It works alongside your rheumatologist's prescribed treatment, not instead of it.

Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic disease that currently cannot be cured completely. The goal is a long remission — keeping inflammation under control and preventing joint deformity — and regenerative injections can be one part of that plan.

In SVF there are cells that can influence the local immune response and help damaged tissue in the joint to repair. The doctor will discuss realistic expectations for your type of arthritis, since research in this area is ongoing.

It is not carried out during pregnancy, a severe flare or an active joint infection, nor with cancer or blood clotting disorders. In these situations the doctor postpones it or suggests something else.

Osteoarthritis is wear of the cartilage, usually showing as aching pain and a dry crunch with movement. Knee arthritis is inflammation from an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout, with redness, warmth, marked swelling and tenderness to touch.

In an inflamed joint the pain receptors are stimulated all the time — during movement, at rest and at night. This pain can be eased by treatment aimed at reducing the inflammation, such as PRP and SVF.

No. Pregnancy is a contraindication to joint injections, including PRP and SVF. Arthritis treatment during pregnancy is decided only together with a rheumatologist and an obstetrician.

Yes. Your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood test results are reviewed by a doctor free of charge, and you will hear whether regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis.

Without treatment it can lead to permanent joint deformity, loss of function, osteoporosis and damage to internal organs such as the heart, lungs and kidneys. Timely treatment is needed to prevent these complications.
