Osteoarthritis treatment encompasses a range of therapeutic approaches aimed at managing the symptoms and progression of osteoarthritis. This degenerative joint disease primarily affects the cartilage, the smooth tissue that cushions the ends of bones in joints. Over time, the cartilage wears down, leading to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility.
At Everest Regenerative Medicine, osteoarthritis treatment involves cutting-edge regenerative therapies such as stem cell therapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments. These treatments are designed to harness the body’s natural healing processes to repair and regenerate damaged tissues, offering a promising alternative to traditional surgical methods and medications.
One of the primary benefits of osteoarthritis treatment is pain relief. Regenerative therapies like stem cell therapy and PRP treatments can reduce inflammation and promote tissue regeneration, leading to significant pain reduction.
Osteoarthritis often leads to stiffness and reduced joint mobility. By promoting the repair of damaged cartilage and tissues, regenerative treatments can enhance joint flexibility and overall mobility.
Unlike traditional surgical methods, regenerative treatments are minimally invasive. This means shorter recovery times, fewer risks, and less discomfort for patients.
At Everest Regenerative Medicine, treatments are tailored to each patient’s unique needs. This personalized approach ensures that patients receive the most effective and appropriate care for their specific condition.
Many individuals with osteoarthritis rely on pain medications to manage their symptoms. Regenerative treatments can reduce the need for these medications, minimizing the risk of side effects and dependency.
Osteoarthritis treatment is suitable for a wide range of individuals, including:
While regenerative treatments at Everest Regenerative Medicine are highly effective for osteoarthritis, they can also address a variety of other conditions, including:
Before seeking professional treatment, there are several home remedies and lifestyle changes you can try to manage osteoarthritis symptoms:
Regular physical activity can help maintain joint flexibility and strengthen the muscles around the joints. Low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and cycling are particularly beneficial.
Maintaining a healthy weight can reduce the stress on your joints, particularly the knees and hips. A balanced diet and regular exercise can help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
Applying heat or cold to affected joints can provide temporary pain relief. Heat can help relax muscles and improve blood flow, while cold can reduce inflammation and numb the area.
Non-prescription pain relievers such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and naproxen can help manage pain and inflammation. Always follow the recommended dosage and consult with a healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
Using assistive devices such as braces, splints, or canes can help support affected joints and reduce pain during daily activities.
At Everest Regenerative Medicine, we follow a thorough and personalized process to determine if you are a candidate for osteoarthritis treatment:
During your initial consultation, our experienced medical team will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and conduct a physical examination. This helps us understand the extent of your condition and identify the most appropriate treatment options.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of your joint health, we may recommend diagnostic imaging such as X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound. These imaging techniques provide detailed insights into the condition of your cartilage, bones, and surrounding tissues.
Based on the findings from your consultation and diagnostic imaging, we will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan may include regenerative therapies such as stem cell therapy or PRP treatments, along with complementary approaches like physical therapy and lifestyle modifications.
Our skilled medical professionals will administer the chosen regenerative treatment using advanced techniques to ensure optimal results. The procedure is typically minimally invasive, and most patients experience minimal discomfort and downtime.
After your treatment, we provide ongoing follow-up care to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. Our goal is to ensure that you achieve the best possible outcomes and enjoy long-lasting relief from osteoarthritis symptoms.
