Platelets are generally thought of as helping with clotting. And they do! Without platelets we wouldn't be able to heal from wounds. In addition, they secrete hundreds of healing molecules, telling our bodies to get better by regenerating skin, cartilage, or other tissues. Joints don't have the best blood supply so healing can be slow. That's where platelet-rich plasma can be used. We take a sample of your blood and extract the platelet-rich portion. It looks like liquid gold! And we can inject this into tendons or joint space. Though commonly used for knee pain like that of arthritis, it can also be used for tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and other painful strains/sprains.
