PRP therapy? Anyone had it?

[Pre64]

Torn a tendon in my elbow,Dr recommended PRP therapy, plasma replacement therapy. Got it done, not going to lie, I felt it for a couple days after. He said not to expect any improvement for a couple weeks, just curious if anyone has had this done and the results . Thanks

Yep. Been there. In my case it took 3 treatments to get results. Worked for me and haven’t had any troubles since.

It’s a hit uncomfortable for a week or so after each treatment. PRP is way better than surgery and weeks of rehab

A lot of people swear by BP 157 and TB 500 as well if that doesn't work. I never did try it for my shoulder but wished I would have after finding out how bad surgery sucked.

Is this like stem cells?

Bcp157 and tb500 have made a world of difference for my shoulders. Slap tear and ripped my bicep off. After surgery and months of therapy still pain and couldn’t lift my arm more than a nazi salute. Started the peptides and noticeable difference in a couple weeks.

The draw your blood out, spin it and seperate the plasma, then inject that back into the damaged tissue

Does this BCP157/TB500 work for tendonosis (aka perpetual tendonitis)??

Veterinarians do this to horses on a regular basis, simple procedure really. It does help for making quick healing of injured/damaged tissue.

I gotta look into this, both shoulders are shot and i have been putting off surgery as there is a long rehab for that.

No, and if anybody needs a conversation about not doing cadaveric mesenchymal stem cells, you can PM me. I do think placental blood stem cells may have validity and treating many diseases, there is a group in Columbia that has some decent results with traumatic brain injury,MS etc. And yes there is other research going on that is derived from aborted fetal material, but that's an ethical dilemma that many aren't ready to cross. Except the crazy left -another reason to kill the babies.
