PRP for Heel Pain

I suffered from heel pain for several months. My prior doctor had given me a couple of cortisone injections which did not give me relief .  After a PRP treatment my pain started improving in less than 2 weeks. Doctor Sobo gave me a second PRP treatment 4 weeks later and within 2 months from the start  my pain was gone. I can now walk as much as I like and I have not had any  more problems with my foot.

What is PRP

PRP is produced from a person’s own blood. It is a concentration of the type of cell know as platelets. Platelets and the liquid plasma portion of the blood contain many factors that are essential for the cellular functions that are required for healing. After a blood sample is obtained from a patient, the blood is put into a centrifuge, which separates the blood into its many components. Platelet rich plasma can then be collected and delivered to the area of the body that needs treatment.

Platelet Rich Plasma

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments are becoming a popular option for giving a naturally based, biological boost to the healing process. The platelet cells natural function is to help the healing process in the body through its release of biologically active substances that improve and speed healing. This procedure concentrates the platelet count in a patient’s centrifuged blood so that when returned to the body, it contains many times the natural concentration of platelets, and with that the regenerative healing factors they produce. Because PRP is created directly from a patient’s own blood, neither allergic reactions nor rejection of the platelet cells can occur. This is a safe treatment that can be performed and completed in an office setting in approximately one hour from start to finish.
