PRP Injections for Nerve Damage: Regenerative Medicine

Stop the pain, frustration and dysfunction without surgery and start living better today.

SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION

Nerve injuries can affect your everyday movement, especially if you enjoy an active lifestyle. If you’re experiencing numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain from a nerve injury, there is an alternative to surgery that can help you feel and move better – faster.

Regenerative medicine and PRP injections can help restore feeling and movement by boosting your body’s natural healing process.

Commonly Treated Nerve Injuries

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (median nerve)
  • Cubital Tunnel Syndrome (ulnar nerve)
  • Radial Tunnel Syndrome (radial nerve)
  • Posterior Interosseous Nerve
  • Sciatic Nerve
  • Peroneal Neuropathy (peroneal nerve)
  • Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome (tibial nerves)
  • Morton’s Neuroma (foot)

Alternatives To Nerve Injury Surgery

Traditionally, the treatment options for nerve injuries have been physical therapy, bracing, steroid injections – which damage tissue – or surgery. Thankfully, these are no longer the only treatment solutions for nerve injuries.

At the Albano Clinic, we use hydrodissection with PRP or regenerative cells to treat these neuropathies. Hydrodissection involves precisely guiding the needle with ultrasound to within 1mm of the nerve and injecting fluid around the nerve. These treatments flood the affected area with your body’s natural healing cells and help your nerve return to more normal function, improve your movement and restore feeling.

A Better Solution For Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome, also known as median neuropathy, is a common and possibly debilitating condition. While surgery has become less and less invasive, it still involves incising the skin and cutting the ligament overlying the carpal tunnel. Unfortunately, this invasive procedure carries the risk of incision pain, infection, persistent numbness and tingling, and nerve injury.

During a triple blind case study we conducted with a 12-month follow-up, we found that hydrodissection of the median nerve (placing fluid around the nerve) can work at least as well as surgery in moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome. Using this method, we can help you move better, feel better and live better – without the stress and pain of surgery.

Start Living Better Today

I came to Dr. Albano because I had been suffering with bilateral carpal tunnel for over six years and I did not want to do surgery. I’m not only moving better but I got my life back!~ Case Baker

Dr. Albano’s PRP Case Study Reveals Powerful Results

At the time of injection, Case was a 37-year-old self-employed cable worker with a six-year history of recalcitrant bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. His job requires heavy manual labor and his condition was exacerbated six months prior to his first visit with Dr. Albano. Case had tried everything but surgery. He wore night splints for six months but they became less effective. He also tried chiropractic treatment without success. At the Albano Clinic, we did an unblinded case study on him to compare how PRP would work in this area. To see his results, click the link below.

FAQs

Will my condition need one round of injections or more? Expand

The answer depends on many different variables, as no two injuries or conditions are alike. The severity of the injury, your activity level and your ultimate health goals all play a part in determining the number of treatments necessary.

Do you want to run ultramarathons? Or sit on the floor to play with your grandchildren? On average, our patients receive one to three rounds of injections. Often, one round of injections is enough to help our patients return to their regular activities.

In a normal course of treatment, we do one round of injections and wait until you reach a plateau in your improvement (normally about four months post-treatment). At that point, we determine together if you’ve reached your recovery goal. If there is still room for improvement, we may recommend another round of injections.

How soon will I start feeling better? When can I return to normal activity? Expand

This depends on the severity of your condition and the level of activity that is “normal” for you. Typically, there is an increase in pain for two weeks after the procedure, as your body’s natural inflammatory response goes to work healing your damaged tissue. Everyone heals at different rates, however, and the process could take longer or shorter than two weeks.

The healing process isn’t strictly linear, either. It is more like a roller coaster – there are good days and bad days. You should see measurable improvement after four months and an overall improvement in your quality of life by the end of the healing process.

What is the difference between regenerative cell and PRP (platelet rich plasma) treatments? Expand

Regenerative cells are usually harvested from a patient’s healthy bone marrow. To harvest PRP, we draw your blood and then concentrate the platelets. We then precisely inject the cells and concentrated platelets into the damaged area, and both biologics go to work to help repair the damaged tissues.

We typically use both regenerative cells and PRP when treating patients, however, there are times when we use just PRP. Every treatment plan varies according to the individual needs of our patients.

Where exactly are these regenerative cells obtained? Expand

We work with two different types of cells. The first type of cell comes from your own healthy bone marrow. There are many living stem cells in these tissues

The second type of cell does not come from your body. These tissues contain healthy growth factors that boost your body’s natural healing mechanisms. Typically discarded, these tissues are gathered safely and ethically and no babies are harmed in the process.
