Joint Treatment for Patients from Erode

PRP means platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood; SVF means a cell fraction isolated from a small portion of your adipose tissue. Working in different ways, they are often combined for a stronger regenerative effect.

Both methods use your own tissue, so the risk of rejection or an allergic reaction is very low. As with any injection, temporary pain, swelling or bruising are possible, and infection is rare. The doctor explains the risks for your case at the consultation.

Each case differs. A PRP effect often lasts from several months to around a year, and an SVF effect can last longer. It depends on your body and the stage of the condition, so no one can promise you a fixed result.

It is not carried out if you have cancer, an acute infection or a blood clotting disorder, if you are pregnant, or during a flare-up of a serious chronic illness. The doctor checks this at the consultation.

When the condition is at an early stage, injections of PRP or SVF alongside exercise therapy and physiotherapy can ease pain and improve mobility. With a badly damaged joint, replacement may be the realistic option, and the doctor will be honest about this after seeing your scans.

SVF therapy may be an option at early stages (1–2) to support blood supply to the femoral head and postpone joint replacement. At later stages, surgery is usually needed.

With early or moderate changes, trying to keep your own joint first is often the sensible path — a replacement means major surgery, lengthy rehabilitation, risks such as infection and implants that might eventually be redone.

Yes. A doctor will review your X-rays, MRI, CT or medical reports free of charge once you send them, and explain whether the procedure could suit you and what else might be needed.

Typically within a day or two. You need no crutches and no long rehabilitation, and the doctor advises you on exercise and load for the first weeks.

The doctor first establishes what is causing the pain: PRP is used for shoulder joint and rotator cuff problems, and SVF may be considered for more advanced arthritis of the shoulder. Suitability depends on that cause.
