Arthrosis Treatment in Muscat Without Surgery

It is the gradual wearing of the cartilage covering the ends of the bones in a joint. As the cartilage thins, the joint loses its cushioning; the bones rub together, and pain, stiffness and crunching develop. The condition is degenerative rather than inflammatory.

Many patients can, if treatment is not delayed. The aim of SVF and PRP injections is to ease pain and support the cartilage without an operation, and joint replacement is the last option — for a joint already destroyed.

The first changes are often noticed 2–3 weeks after the procedure. Over about six months a stable result forms, lasting anywhere from several months to several years depending on the individual. Osteoarthritis is chronic and calls for an ongoing plan rather than one injection.

Early and moderate stages respond best. Generally, the milder the stage, the faster and longer-lasting the effect, which may cut the need for regular hyaluronic acid injections. When the joint space has almost disappeared at the most advanced stage, a lasting effect cannot be expected.

The knees, hips and ankles, which bear the most load, and the spine and small joints of the hand. We use regenerative treatment for all of these joints.

In most cases it progresses: the pain becomes constant, movement narrows, the joint may deform and walking can get difficult. A real difference comes from early diagnosis, weight control, exercise and working with a doctor.

Mainly with an X-ray, which reveals the stage. MRI shows the cartilage and soft tissues in detail, ultrasound shows fluid and inflammation in the joint, and blood tests help rule out inflammatory conditions. If you have results already, the doctor can review them at no charge.

In osteoarthritis the cartilage wears, causing aching pain on movement, crunching and stiffness after rest; in arthritis the joint is inflamed, with pain at rest and at night, swelling, redness and warmth. The treatment approach differs, so diagnosis is the first step.

Yes. Send us your X-rays, MRI or test results and a doctor will review them free of charge, assess the stage of osteoarthritis and propose a non-surgical plan where appropriate.

Yes, it is worth doing. The right exercise strengthens the muscles unloading the joint, improves nutrition of the cartilage and maintains mobility. Swimming, water aerobics, cycling, Nordic walking and yoga suit well; running on hard surfaces, jumping, heavy lifting and sudden movements should be avoided.
