Pro Triathlete\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" /> <strong>Claire, a Pro-Triathlete, avoided joint replacement with     Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>[/caption]\r\n<h2>Avoid Joint Replacement and Stay Active</h2>\r\nWe see many people in our office who want to avoid joint replacement. This scenario occurs more often than you might imagine. Folks of all ages come seeking treatment.\r\n\r\nThey come because they want to continue their distance running, weightlifting, bicycling, and other activities. They come because the pain is getting in the way of the things in life they enjoy, and they want that to change.\r\n<h3>Looking for an Alternative to Joint Replacement</h3>\r\nFrequently, they have been told that their problem, which is likely arthritis, is too advanced, and the only option left is a joint replacement. Meanwhile, the sufferer looks for an alternative, often left to chase symptoms, taking pain medications and trying various therapies in an attempt to find some relief.\r\n\r\nThey hear about OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup>, and call or email us, inquiring whether Regenerative Orthopedics can help them, so they don’t have to replace their joint. In the majority of musculoskeletal pain cases, Regenerative Orthopedics can give you pain relief, while improveing the function of your joint.\r\n\r\n<strong>Yes, Regenerative Orthopedics Works Even After Many Other Treatments Fail</strong>\r\n\r\nHow does Regenerative Orthopedics work if so many treatment options have already failed? Many treatment suggestions are therapies that ONLY prolong or delay the need for joint replacement. You are likely familiar with over-the-counter pain relievers and prescription medications like NSAIDS and steroids.\r\n\r\nThere are also injectable medications, such as corticosteroids and hyaluronic acid injections. These treatments are not curative though. And they only give temporary relief. Some, such as NSAIDS and steroids, actually weaken the joint further, which only promotes the arthritic process.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics encourages collagen formation at the joint. It stimulates the body to repair itself, heals injured ligaments and tendons, and stimulates new tissue formation. And it doesn’t just cover up pain or chase symptoms.\r\n\r\n<strong>Regenerative Orthopedics Repairs the Joint.</strong>\r\n\r\nWhy not choose an alternative that works by repairing your joint and eliminating the pain? Regenerative Orthopedics, including Stem Cell Therapy, Platelet Rich Plasma, and Comprehensive Prolotherapy, is an effective way to treat your degenerated joint.. And it does it in a non-surgical manner.\r\n\r\n<strong>Be Aware! Not All Stem Cell Therapies Are Alike!</strong>\r\n\r\nIf you are like many who desire to avoid a joint replacement, you have probably already looked into Stem Cell Therapies. Or you have even gone to a seminar. If you have been to a seminar, the presenter may have emphasized the need to get some type of amniotic stem cell product.\r\n\r\nThe line of thinking is that if you are older, your stem cells are too old, so you need donated cells! This is not the truth! First of all, it is important to understand that amniotic “stem cells” are void of live stem cells. How is that possible? The process necessary to make them available to you actually kills the live cells.\r\n\r\nOn the other hand, your own stem cells are still alive and potent enough to work. Why use a donated product when you have your own <strong>live</strong> cells?\r\n\r\n<strong>What Does OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup> Do Differently Than Other Clinics?</strong>\r\n\r\nClinics in the United States that use a patient’s own stem cells, take the stem cells from bone marrow or from the fat in the abdominal area. Once they have retrieved the cells, they are then reintroduced into the degenerated or injured joint.\r\n\r\nAt OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup>, we use the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy. Many other clinics use just one form of treatment. For example, they may use bone marrow stem cells only. Or they may possibly just use PRP. The Gold Standard encompasses four types of treatments, including stem cells from bone marrow, stem cells from fat, platelets from blood (PRP), and comprehensive dextrose Prolotherapy.\r\n<h3>Isn\'t Just One Type of Regenerative Therapy Enough?</h3>\r\nIn many instances, just one type of regenerative therapy may be sufficient enough to bring healing. Dextrose Prolotherapy, for example, is known to stimulate repair of a painful, degenerated area. As it boosts the normal healing abilities in the injured area, it also attracts immune cells to the degenerated structure for the purpose of repair and healing. And it is possible that we may recommend this therapy, depending on the diagnosis.\r\n\r\nHowever, when a joint is damaged or degenerated to the point where the surgeon wants to replace it, and greater levels of regeneration are needed due to the severity, it would make sense to choose the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy. The Gold Standard is uniquely effective at repair of the degenerated joint.\r\n\r\n<strong>Avoid Joint Replacement with Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>\r\n\r\nBy treating the whole joint in a comprehensive manner, a more complete repair is established. The annoying, persistent and disabling pain of arthritis is almost always due to underlying injured soft tissue. Like in ligament and tendon injuries, which cause the joint to be unstable.\r\n\r\nThe injury to the soft tissue occurred after some type of trauma (even an old sprain) or wear and tear. And the weak ligaments cause the joint to move in an abnormal motion. Over time, this abnormal joint motion will injure other joint structures, setting the joint up for the degeneration that occurs in the arthritic process. By treating the joint comprehensively, Regenerative Orthopedics stimulates the repair of the injured joint structures. The treatment stops the abnormal joint motion, and halts the degenerative process.\r\n<h3>Using the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy</h3>\r\nWhen the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy is used, this treatment combination helps to regenerate the joint when cartilage has been lost. It also stimulates the other soft tissue structures to repair and strengthen, which fixes the root problem of joint instability. The results are the elimination of pain and the return to function for those with degenerative joint conditions.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics is an effective treatment option for those desiring to avoid surgery and get back to the sports and level of activities they love. Even after many other treatments have failed! Don’t let joint pain put a damper on your active lifestyle. Non-surgical Regenerative Orthopedics can resolve your joint pain and help you to meet your activity goals.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"/articles/regenerative-orthopedics/\"> Click here for more articles</a>','Avoid Joint Replacement and Stay Active','','publish','open','closed','','active-and-looking-to-avoid-joint-replacement','','','2020-08-26 17:39:34','2020-08-26 17:39:34','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/?p=2865',0,'post','',0),(2866,8,'2019-10-10 17:49:53','2019-10-10 17:49:53','We see many people in our office who want to avoid a joint replacement.

Encountering these symptoms is not a normal process, but one that points to an injury or degenerative condition.\r\n<h2>What Is the Cause of Snapping Hip Syndrome?</h2>\r\nThere are several reasons Snapping Hip Syndrome occurs, and they can be due to problems either inside or outside of the hip joint.\r\n\r\nMost commonly, the condition involves a thick, wide tendon called the <em><strong>iliotibial band</strong> </em>that runs along the outside or lateral side of the hip joint. The iliotibial band snaps over the bony prominence, a part of the thigh bone that sticks out, called the greater trochanter on the outside of the hip.\r\n\r\nWhen a person with this condition moves into a standing position for example, the band may be positioned behind the trochanter. And then when bending the hip, the band will move and “snap” over towards the front of the bony prominence. Over time, irritation from this “snapping” may also result in bursitis.\r\n\r\nAnother tendon is involved in the second cause of Snapping Hip Syndrome, as it catches on underlying bony prominences of the pelvis. The <em><strong>iliopsoas tendon</strong></em> snaps over the iliopectineal eminence when bending or flexing the hip. The annoying snapping sensation or sound is generally the only symptom involved when the iliopsoas tendon is the source.\r\n\r\nAn additional area where snapping can occur is located where the ball of the hip joint fits into the socket. This snapping involves the <em><strong>rectus femoris</strong></em> tendon as it runs from inside the thighbone and up through the pelvis. When the hip joint bends and straightens, the tendon moves and snaps back and forth across the ball of the hip joint.\r\n\r\nThe least common cause of Snapping Hip Syndrome occurs inside the hip joint and involves a <em><strong>tear in the hip labrum or a tear in the cartilage</strong></em>. Bits of cartilage or even bone can also become loose inside the joint, in these types of injuries. These pieces are called loose fragments and can be an associated cause of Snapping Hip Syndrome which can cause the hip to lock up. In this scenario inside the hip, the sufferer often experiences pain that is disabling.\r\n\r\nA combination of the various causes, plus muscle injury can also occur. Additionally, if the problem is ongoing and the tendons remain lax over a prolonged period of time, Snapping Hip Syndrome can lead to arthritis.\r\n<h2>Who Experiences Snapping Hip Syndrome?</h2>\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4032\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"510\"]<img class=\"wp-image-4032 \" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Snapping-Hip-Syndrome-500x500.png\" alt=\"Snapping Hip Syndrome\" width=\"510\" height=\"510\" /> <strong>                                  Snapping Hip Syndrome in Athletes </strong>[/caption]\r\n\r\nSnapping Hip Syndrome is common in young athletes like ballet dancers, soccer players, and runners. Dancers and other athletes repetitively move their hip in order to perform their dance or sport.\r\n\r\nIf the hip and the tendons are moving abnormally, such as with Snapping Hip Syndrome, the abnormal rubbing and snapping of the tissue over bony prominences will occur again and again.\r\n\r\nWhen experiencing the symptoms, these athletes will frequently turn to treatments to relieve tight muscles, because they attribute their problem to overtraining. Treating muscles may give some relief, but will not repair the underlying injury to the ligaments, tendons, and/or hip labrum.\r\n\r\nTreatments that repair these soft tissue structures are necessary to stabilize the hip joint and stop the snapping from occurring.\r\n<h2>Regenerative Orthopedic Treatments for Snapping Hip Syndrome</h2>\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics directed towards the strengthening of these tendons and any involved ligaments, plus repair of the hip labrum, can tighten the joint and resolve the problem.\r\n\r\nOftentimes an underlying problem of looseness or laxity of the hip joint is involved, causing instability of the hip joint. Regenerative Orthopedics treats the hip instability, because it tightens and strengthens the injured and lax structures, and regenerates the areas that need healing. The treatment actually gets to the root cause of the problem, and is effective at repairing the injured soft tissue, and resolving the problem.\r\n\r\nThe injected solutions in Regenerative Orthopedic treatments draw immune cells and growth factors to the area in an effort to build new healthy soft tissue. The healing and repair boosts the body’s natural response of healing in soft-tissue injuries.  The result is ligaments and tendons that are stronger, and no longer loose.  The snapping and pain goes away, and the athlete can return to the sport they love.\r\n\r\nIf the cause of Snapping Hip Syndrome is a torn labrum or cartilage, a more advanced technique of Regenerative Orthopedics, including <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/stem-cell-treatment/\">Stem Cell Therapy</a> and/or PRP, may be required.  Labral tears respond well to these treatments. And cartilage, if involved, can regenerate too. If loose fragments are an issue, the physician will need to determine whether or not surgical removal is necessary.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedic treatments for Snapping Hip Syndrome get to the root cause of the condition. Specifically, the damaged connective tissues like tendons ligaments, and labrum, can be repaired and healed.

Another name for Runner’s Knee is Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS). And it is characterized by anterior knee pain.\r\n\r\nSufferers of this condition commonly experience pain behind and around the kneecap or patella. Runner’s Knee can affect one or both knees and is a knee complaint among athletes and non-athletes alike. It particularly affects adolescents and young adults. And it is quite common in younger recreational runners, with females suffering more frequently than males.\r\n\r\nSeveral forces act on the patella to provide stability and keep it tracking properly, as it articulates with the patellofemoral groove in the femur.\r\n\r\nThe patella not only moves up and down but also tilts and rotates. That allows for various points of contact between the patella and femur. Repetitive contact at these locations combined with the abnormal articulation of the patella is thought to be the cause of the pain behind and around the patella in patellofemoral pain syndrome.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nPatellofemoral Pain Syndrome should be distinguished from chondromalacia. Chondromalacia is actual fraying and damage to the underlying patellar cartilage. Chondromalacia patella can be a cause of patellofemoral pain syndrome.\r\n<h2>What’s Behind Runner’s Knee?</h2>\r\nThere are many theories to explain the pathophysiology of Runner’s Knee. They include muscular, overuse, and biomechanical theories. The cause of pain and dysfunction may result from abnormal forces such as tight or weak quadriceps, subluxation, or dislocation of the patellofemoral joint can also present.\r\n\r\nRunner’s Knee may be due to prolonged repetitive activities such as running or jumping, which put excessive sheering forces on the patellofemoral joint. And anatomic factors that predispose toward patellofemoral pain or instability include excessive rotation of the hip or shin bone, knock knees, hyperextended knees, and/or poor foot alignment. Also, ligamentous, meniscal, and soft tissue damage can cause patellofemoral pain syndrome. Other causes of patellofemoral pain are fractures, arthritis of the knee, and bony tumors in or around the knee.\r\n\r\nAlthough the exact etiology of Runner’s Knee is unclear, the abnormal articulation along with abnormal muscular and other biomechanical factors change the forces placed upon the patellofemoral joint. The abnormal movement leads to instability and improper tracking as the patella articulates with the patellofemoral groove in the femur.\r\n\r\nFor example, when the knee is flexed, the patella glides through the groove in the femur. If the bones in the lower leg are not aligned correctly, this gliding becomes abnormal. An overload on the patellofemoral joint occurs with flexion of the knee (bending) as this movement increases the pressure between the patella and the various contact points with the femur. With repeated episodes, the joint becomes unstable. Especially if the joint remains out of alignment. This abnormal tracking can lead to increased wear between the bone surfaces, and eventually the articular cartilage.\r\n<h2>What Are the Symptoms?</h2>\r\nBesides the tenderness behind, around, and at the center of the patella, there may also be pain toward the back of the knee. Crepitation or cracking sounds may be heard, as well as a feeling of instability in the knee joint. The pain typically occurs with activity. And it often worsens with activities that include steps, hills, and uneven surfaces.\r\n\r\nGoing downhill or downstairs aggravates the condition. Prolonged sitting can trigger pain due to the extra pressure between the patella and femur during knee flexion. Straightening of the legs may decrease the discomfort. Squatting and kneeling also exacerbate the pain, which can be dull, sharp, or burning.\r\n<h2>How is Runner’s Knee Treated?</h2>\r\nThe common treatment approach for Runner’s Knee usually involves activity modification, anti-inflammatory medications, the RICE protocol, ultrasound, and orthotics. And physical therapy is often recommended. PT may include quadriceps-based exercises together with hamstrings, quadriceps, gastrocnemius, anterior hip muscles, and iliotibial band stretching exercises.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4957\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"500\"]<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-4957\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Runners-Knee.PRP_.Stems-4-500x419.png\" alt=\"Runner\'s Knee.prp.stems 4\" width=\"500\" height=\"419\" /> <strong>         PRP and Stem Cells Are Effective for Runner\'s Knee</strong>[/caption]\r\n\r\nThis approach may help temporarily. But it does not fix the problem of instability in the knee joint which is causing the misalignment. With Runner’s Knee, instead of tracking in the groove of the femur, the patella oftentimes tracks laterally. A sunrise view X-Ray and a functional assessment of the knee by the physician will reveal how the patella is tracking. Strengthening of the vastus medialis may be helpful. And exercises such as cycling are recommended, but often that alone will not resolve the Runner’s Knee.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics, including PRP and/or Prolotherapy injections to the medial side of the patella, will strengthen the attachment of the vastus medialis to the patella. The resultant strengthening pulls the patella into the groove, which allows for a realignment of the patella.\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics along with vastus medialis strengthening will relieve the pain and speed up the process of normalizing the patellar tracking in Runner’s Knee. The combination allows for a quick return to activities.\r\n<div class=\"vk-ContentBody sc-NQaSp cRMilg\">\r\n<p class=\"sc-hSBNlM iAaHRI\">A 2021 article in \"The American Journal of Sports Medicine\" says PRP, in combination with rehabilitation, is effective in reducing pain and improving activity levels for those with knee injuries like Runner\'s Knee.1</p>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n<h3>References</h3>\r\nRodas, Gil, et al. \"Effect of autologous expanded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells or leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma in chronic patellar tendinopathy (with gap&gt; 3 mm): preliminary outcomes after 6 months of a double-blind, randomized, prospective study.\" <i>The American Journal of Sports Medicine</i> 49.6 (2021): 1492-1504.\r\n<div class=\"sc-fvjPtz dgNjOL\"></div>\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"/articles/regenerative-orthopedics/\"> Click here for more articles</a>','Runner’s Knee Pain','','publish','open','closed','','runners-knee-pain-2','','','2022-03-04 19:41:37','2022-03-04 19:41:37','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/?p=2894',0,'post','',0),(2895,8,'2019-10-17 08:12:55','2019-10-17 08:12:55','Runner’s Knee is a painful knee condition that is, like the name says, common in runners.

As this course continues, the knee or hip joint will degenerate and progress to arthritis.\n\n<h4>The Meniscus Tears and Surgery</h4>\nThe menisci protect the cartilage in the knee from high stresses that are placed upon the joint. They are located between the femur and the tibia bones. Injury to the meniscus is one of the most common knee injuries where medical care is sought due to knee pain. Surgery is frequently recommended for various types of meniscus tears, including bucket handle tears, radial tears, horizontal tears, and oblique tears. When more than one of these patterns is present, the tear is called a complex tear.  Although frequently recommended, surgery, including arthroscopic surgery, adds to the instability of the joint, because joint structures are cut, scraped and removed. The meniscus and the articular cartilage are the most commonly removed structures, when arthroscopic surgery of the knee is performed. When the meniscus and cartilage are removed, the femur bone is unable to glide smoothly over the tibia, enhancing knee instability and hastening the arthritic rate. The dynamics within the joint are changed and the knee joint no longer functions normally. Arthroscopic surgery boosts arthritic degeneration, because pressure on the cartilage escalates when the meniscus is removed, and the joint becomes more unstable with the stretching, cutting and scraping of the ligaments, tendons and cartilage. The degeneration of the articular cartilage appears to be proportional to the size of the segment removed. The joint breakdown leads to further thinning of the remaining articular cartilage. This allows for increased pressure on the underlying tibia bone which then increases pressure on the ligaments. When the ligaments tear, the instability becomes even worse. The result of this breakdown of the joint is a cycle of knee pain, joint degeneration, structure damage, and even more pain.\n\n<h4>Hip Labral Tears</h4>\nThe hip labrum, along with various hip ligaments and the normal deep socket configuration of the anatomy of the hip joint, provide most of the stability of the hip. Injury to the ligaments, tendons and labrum, initiate the same damage and pain cycle that we described for the knee, which results in ongoing hip pain and can lead to hip arthritis. Surgical repair of the hip labrum and hip replacement are needed at times, but in our opinion, should be sought as a last resort. Just as removal of the meniscus increases instability in the knee, extraction of the labrum makes the hip joint more unstable, and will eventually degenerate the hip and lead to further arthritis.\n\n<h4>Treating Meniscus &amp; Labral Tears Non-Surgically with Regenerative Orthopedics</h4>\nNon-surgical options do exist to treat both meniscal and labral tears.  Regenerative Orthopedics, a regenerative injection therapy, has been successfully utilized to repair and regenerate the injured ligaments, tendons, meniscus, labrum and cartilage in injured and degenerated knee and hip joints. The therapy boosts collagen formation both outside and inside the knee and hip joint, by stimulating the body to repair itself. Comprehensively treating all of the ligament attachments of the joint, ensures the stability of the hip and knee joint, since treating the ligaments tightens the loose supporting structures, aiding in the elimination of pain. In cases of advanced degeneration and arthritis, the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy can be utilized, which incorporates bone marrow stem cells, as well as adipose stem cells, plus Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), and Prolotherapy  in a combined regenerative procedure. Stem cells can self-renew and differentiate (or change) into a variety of cell types, and repair injured tissue. PRP and Prolotherapy activate growth factors which augment stem cell proliferation and aid in the repair of conditions with cellular deficiencies, like a damaged meniscus or labrum. The Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy provides the cells and growth factors that the damaged tissues and degenerative conditions lack, to aid in their healing.\n\nMost painful joint conditions begin with joint instability due to damage to the surrounding ligaments. The instability can progress to meniscal injuries or labral degeneration and eventually to knee or hip arthritis. Treatments such as arthroscopy to repair these tears can actually increase the arthritic process. Non-surgical Regenerative Orthopedics is available as an excellent option to stimulate the body to repair the entire joint, and alleviate knee and hip pain, due to arthritis and/or as a result of ligament, tendon, meniscal and labral tears.\n','Meniscus and Labral Tears','','inherit','closed','closed','','1397-autosave-v1','','','2019-10-17 08:16:11','2019-10-17 08:16:11','',1397,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/1397-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2902,8,'2019-10-17 09:25:24','2019-10-17 09:25:24','<h2 class=\"text-center\">Please fill out the form below for your inquiries!</h2>\r\n[contact-form-7 id=\"4\" title=\"Contact page form\"]\r\n\r\n<div id=\"contact-frm\">\r\n[form]\r\n</div>','Contact','','inherit','closed','closed','','29-revision-v1','','','2019-10-17 09:25:24','2019-10-17 09:25:24','',29,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/29-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2903,8,'2019-10-17 10:17:05','2019-10-17 10:17:05','<h2 class=\"text-center\">Please fill out the form below for your inquiries!</h2>\r\n<div id=\"contact-frm\">\r\n[form]\r\n</div>','Contact','','inherit','closed','closed','','29-revision-v1','','','2019-10-17 10:17:05','2019-10-17 10:17:05','',29,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/29-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2904,8,'2019-10-17 17:03:49','2019-10-17 17:03:49','','iwp_log_5da89ef536c7e','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da89ef536c7e','','','2019-10-17 17:03:49','2019-10-17 17:03:49','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da89ef536c7e/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2905,8,'2019-10-17 17:03:51','2019-10-17 17:03:51','','iwp_log_5da89ef770bec','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da89ef770bec','','','2019-10-17 17:03:51','2019-10-17 17:03:51','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da89ef770bec/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2906,8,'2019-10-17 17:03:56','2019-10-17 17:03:56','','iwp_log_5da89efc72b74','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da89efc72b74','','','2019-10-17 17:03:56','2019-10-17 17:03:56','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da89efc72b74/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2907,8,'2019-10-17 17:04:04','2019-10-17 17:04:04','','iwp_log_5da89f040d96e','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da89f040d96e','','','2019-10-17 17:04:04','2019-10-17 17:04:04','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da89f040d96e/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2908,8,'2019-10-17 17:04:05','2019-10-17 17:04:05','','iwp_log_5da89f052eba8','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da89f052eba8','','','2019-10-17 17:04:05','2019-10-17 17:04:05','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da89f052eba8/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2909,0,'2019-10-17 21:37:28','2019-10-17 21:37:28','Someone has requested a password reset for the following account:\r\n\r\nSite Name: Stem Cell PRP Prolotherapy Surgery Alternative Orthopedic Medicine Treatment - Dr Fields\r\n\r\nUsername: website-admin\r\n\r\nIf this was a mistake, just ignore this email and nothing will happen.\r\n\r\nTo reset your password, visit the following address:\r\n\r\n\r\n','[Stem Cell PRP Prolotherapy Surgery Alternative Orthopedic Medicine Treatment - Dr Fields] Password Reset','','private','closed','closed','','stem-cell-prp-prolotherapy-surgery-alternative-orthopedic-medicine-treatment-dr-fields-password-reset','','','2019-10-17 21:37:28','2019-10-17 21:37:28','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/postman_sent_mail/stem-cell-prp-prolotherapy-surgery-alternative-orthopedic-medicine-treatment-dr-fields-password-reset/',0,'postman_sent_mail','',0),(2910,8,'2019-10-17 21:41:58','2019-10-17 21:41:58','Hi website-admin,\n\nThis notice confirms that your password was changed on Stem Cell PRP Prolotherapy Surgery Alternative Orthopedic Medicine Treatment - Dr Fields.\n\nIf you did not change your password, please contact the Site Administrator at\nwebmaster@webstractmarketing.com\n\nThis email has been sent to webmaster@webstractmarketing.com\n\nRegards,\nAll at Stem Cell PRP Prolotherapy Surgery Alternative Orthopedic Medicine Treatment - Dr Fields\nhttps://www.drfields.com','[Stem Cell PRP Prolotherapy Surgery Alternative Orthopedic Medicine Treatment - Dr Fields] Password Changed','','private','closed','closed','','stem-cell-prp-prolotherapy-surgery-alternative-orthopedic-medicine-treatment-dr-fields-password-changed','','','2019-10-17 21:41:58','2019-10-17 21:41:58','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/postman_sent_mail/stem-cell-prp-prolotherapy-surgery-alternative-orthopedic-medicine-treatment-dr-fields-password-changed/',0,'postman_sent_mail','',0),(2911,8,'2019-10-17 23:10:36','2019-10-17 23:10:36','','iwp_log_5da8f4ec2ca34','','publish','closed','closed','','iwp_log_5da8f4ec2ca34','','','2019-10-17 23:10:36','2019-10-17 23:10:36','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/iwp_log_5da8f4ec2ca34/',0,'iwp_log','',0),(2912,8,'2019-10-18 03:54:37','2019-10-18 03:54:37','Overuse Injuries can happen in any joint of the body. Repetitive strain from repeat motion and overuse due to particular jobs and activities can lead to these injuries.  Injuries, such as Runner’s Knee, Rotator Cuff Tendonitis, and Tennis Elbow are examples of overuse injuries.\r\n\r\nOveruse injuries are progressive activity-related injuries linked to repetitive stress that is placed on the tendon, ligament or other joint structure. Individuals with overuse injuries may try to manage their pain on their own for a while. They may attempt to stabilize the knee, shoulder or elbow with a brace. Or calm the pain with over-the-counter medications. Or even rest the joint a bit in order to find enough relief to be able to play in the next game, continue to work, or participate in their upcoming event.\r\n<h2>Common Causes of Overuse Injuries</h2>\r\nDoing too much of the same activity strains the tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissue structures. Training error and improper technique may add to the possibility of an overuse injury. Using poor or improper form during training exercises, while running on uneven ground, and when swinging a tennis racket. Or even poor form when painting walls can overload the muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and cause an overuse injury.\r\n\r\nIn cases of Runners Knee, for example, the repeated stress again and again,  from the force of hitting hard surfaces while contracting the leg muscle when running, results in a weakening of the tendon and ligaments. In overuse injuries, many may think the tendon or ligaments are just inflamed. And although the injury may begin with inflammation, when left untreated, this overuse injury overloads the tendon and ligaments. The result is degeneration or even in a tear. Many cases of overuse injuries become chronic with instances of recurrence.\r\n<h2>Symptoms of Overuse Injuries</h2>\r\nIn the beginning, pain and tenderness are noted in the affected area after physical activity. As the problem progresses, the pain and discomfort occur during activity. Of course, symptoms vary with the various joints and from person to person. But as the condition advances, swelling and pain will restrict the ability to perform sports or particular activities. Eventually, the pain and symptoms will persist, even at rest.\r\n<h2>Treating Overuse Injuries</h2>\r\nChasing and suppressing symptoms with bracing and pain medications may keep the swelling down and provide momentary pain relief. But a knee sleeve, for example, will only give a false sense of security while only temporarily helping the sufferer to function. The debilitating pain can keep the individual and athlete searching for a cure.\r\n<h3>Is surgery the answer?</h3>\r\nSurgery prolongs the athlete’s return to sport.<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\"><sup>[i]</sup></a>  Fortunately, there are non-surgical options!\r\n\r\nHere’s what doctors in New York say about the overuse injury patellar tendonitis, “Due to its common refractory response (difficulty in treating) to conservative treatment, a variety of new treatments have emerged recently that include...<strong>Prolotherapy</strong>, <strong>platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP)</strong><strong>,</strong> arthroscopic surgical procedures, surgical resection of the inferior patellar pole (cutting away tendon tissue at the kneecap)…”<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\"><sup>[ii]</sup></a>\r\n\r\nAt OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup>, the regenerative treatments we use for painful joint conditions include Platelet Rich Plasma and Prolotherapy. But the researchers listed surgery too! Why do surgery if PRP is good enough? And is PRP good enough to effectively treat overuse conditions?\r\n<h3>What Do the Studies Show?</h3>\r\nStudies done in Europe demonstrate the effectiveness of Platelet Rich Plasma for those with overuse conditions of the knee. And it is able to improve pain symptoms and functionality. Here is what they say: “The most important finding in our meta-analysis is that PRP injections are statistically better than the control group at longer term follow-up suggesting that PRP is an effective and worthwhile treatment for Patellar Tendinopathy. <a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]</a><sup>,<a href=\"#_edn4\" name=\"_ednref4\">[iv]</a></sup>\r\n\r\nA 2018 study agreed that multiple PRP injections offer the most satisfactory results.<a href=\"#_edn5\" name=\"_ednref5\">[v]</a> Athletes are looking to non-surgical therapies such as Stem Cell Treatments, Platelet Rich Plasma, or Prolotherapy treatments, because they are showing improved outcomes in those with tendon and ligament conditions like Runner’s Knee.<a href=\"#_edn6\" name=\"_ednref6\">[vi]</a>\r\n<h2>Treating Overuse Injuries with Regenerative Orthopedics</h2>\r\nAt OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup>, using regenerative therapies like Stem Cell Therapy, Platelet Rich Plasma, and Prolotherapy is what we do. By treating overuse injuries with Regenerative Orthopedics, athletes can get back to their sport. And other individuals and non-athletes can return to the activities they love.\r\n\r\nWe see substantial, consistent improvements in pain outcomes when treating those with overuse injuries.  <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics can treat various joint disorders including problems of the tendons. </strong>That\'s because the injections are directed at the weakened tendons and involved ligaments which stimulate a string of healing events. The healing events include an increase of blood supply, an influx of reparative cells, and the deposition of collagen cells. And when the collagen matures, it will strengthen and tighten the damaged tendons and ligaments.\r\n\r\n<strong>Why would we treat the ligaments too? </strong>\r\n\r\nThe ongoing and recurring joint pain in overuse conditions is rooted in joint instability. Patients with overuse injuries often have concurrent weakness in the ligaments of the joint. These ligaments play a huge role in stabilizing the joint. And when weak, will put more strain on the tendon and other joint structures.\r\n\r\nThe problem of weak ligaments needs to be addressed in treatment. Therefore, we treat the joint comprehensively, and make sure we treat any injured and weakened ligaments as well, in order to achieve the best results. Comprehensive treatment will result in repair and healing of the entire joint, tightening of the ligaments, and strengthening and repair of the tendons. So the joint and all of its structures will function normally. And the athletes and individuals who were sidelined by overuse injuries will be able return confidently and pain-free to the sport and activities they love.\r\n<h3>References</h3>\r\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]</a> Cook J L, Khan KM, Harcourt PR, <em>et al. </em><a href=\"http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/31/4/332.short\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A cross sectional study of 100 athletes with jumper’s knee managed conservatively and surgically.</a> The Victorian Institute of Sport Tendon Study Group.

However, surgery prolongs the athlete’s return to sport for more than six months.<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\"><sup>[i]</sup></a>  And what if the surgery fails? Then, those with a degenerated patellar tendon still have a condition that is difficult to fix. Are there other options? Here’s what doctors in New York say, “Due to its common refractory response (difficulty in treating) to conservative treatment, a variety of new treatments have emerged recently that include dry-needling, <strong>sclerosing injections (Prolotherapy)</strong>, <a href=\"https://www.caringmedical.com/what-is-prolotherapy-with-platelet-rich-plasma/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>platelet-rich plasma therapy</strong></a><strong> (PRP)</strong><strong>,</strong> arthroscopic surgical procedures, surgical resection of the inferior patellar pole (cutting away tendon tissue at the kneecap),”etc … <a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\"><sup>[ii]</sup></a> At OrthoRegen, the regenerative treatments we use for painful joint conditions include Platelet Rich Plasma and Prolotherapy. But the researchers listed surgery too! Why do surgery if PRP is good enough? And is it good enough to effectively treat Jumper’s Knee? Studies done in Europe demonstrate the effectiveness of Platelet Rich Plasma for those with Jumper’s Knee, and its ability to improve pain symptoms and functionality, saying, “The most important finding in our meta-analysis is that PRP injections are statistically better than the control group at longer term follow-up suggesting that PRP is an effective and worthwhile treatment for Patellar Tendinopathy. <a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]</a><sup>,<a href=\"#_edn4\" name=\"_ednref4\">[iv]</a></sup> A 2018 study agreed that multiple PRP injections offer the most satisfactory results.<a href=\"#_edn5\" name=\"_ednref5\">[v]</a> Athletes are looking to non-surgical therapies such as stem cell treatments and platelet rich plasma treatments, because they are showing improved outcomes in those with patellar tendon conditions like Jumper’s Knee.<a href=\"#_edn6\" name=\"_ednref6\">[vi]</a>\r\n<h2>Treating Jumper’s Knee with Regenerative Orthopedics</h2>\r\nAt OrthoRegen, using regenerative therapies like Platelet Rich Plasma, Stem Cell Therapy, and Prolotherapy is what we do. By treating Jumper’s Knee with Regenerative Orthopedics, athletes can get back to their sport. We see substantial, consistent improvements in pain outcomes when treating those with Jumper’s Knee and patellar tendon conditions.  <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics can treat various knee disorders including problems of the tendons, because the</strong><strong> injections directed at the weakened tendons and involved ligaments</strong> stimulate a string of healing events, which include an increase of blood supply, an influx of reparative cells, and the deposition of collagen cells. When the collagen matures, it will strengthen and tighten the damaged tendons and ligaments.\r\n\r\n<strong>Why would we treat the ligaments too? </strong>The ongoing and recurring kneecap pain in tendon conditions is rooted in knee instability. Patients with Jumper’s Knee often have concurrent weakness in the ligaments of the knee. These ligaments play a huge role in stabilizing the knee, and when weak, will put more strain on the patellar tendon. The problem of weak ligaments needs to be addressed in treatment. Therefore, we treat the knee comprehensively, and make sure we treat any injured and weakened ligaments as well, in order to achieve the best results. Comprehensive treatment will result in repair and healing, tightening of the ligaments, and strengthening and repair of the patellar tendon, so the knee and all of its structures function normally, and the athlete and individual sidelined by Jumper’s Knee can return confidently and pain-free to the sport and activities they love.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]</a> Cook J L, Khan KM, Harcourt PR, <em>et al. </em><a href=\"http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/31/4/332.short\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A cross sectional study of 100 athletes with jumper’s knee managed conservatively and surgically.</a> The Victorian Institute of Sport Tendon Study Group.

But doesn\'t it seem contrary then, to use a “treatment” that makes arthritis worse, in an effort to treat it? Cortisone destroys cartilage, boosts cell death in the joint, and increases bone loss.\r\n<h2>Behind the Use of Cortisone Injections</h2>\r\nArthritis is a very common disease of the joint that limits activity and quality of life. It often results in disability. In an effort to treat arthritis, physicians initially approach pain and symptom control in a non-surgical fashion, generally attempting to delay the eventual joint replacement.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, older or sicker patients may not be able to tolerate surgery, and in those cases, more conservative treatments are needed and recommended.

Hopefully, the reason behind the limits is explained as well. It is important for the patient to be educated on the risks of treatment with cortisone injections.\r\n<h2>Cortisone Injections May Do More Harm than Good</h2>\r\nThe researchers in this most recent study looked at the effect of cortisone injected into knees and hips. And they found that cortisone boosted the progression of arthritis and <strong>accelerated the need for joint replacement surgery.</strong>\r\n\r\nThe researchers looked at 459 patients who received one to three cortisone injections into the hip or knee in 2018. Almost a tenth developed complications such as cartilage loss, stress fractures, bone loss, and joint destruction in the two to fifteen months following the injections. The authors note that this percentage may be an understatement because half of the participants did not receive follow-up imaging tests to assess the health of their joints.\r\n\r\n<strong>In summary, the studies are showing that cortisone injections accelerate arthritis and can be detrimental in the long-run</strong>. But even with this knowledge, cortisone injections continue to be recommended frequently for joint pain. Millions of Americans suffer from arthritis and its symptoms of pain, swelling, cartilage loss, and bone destruction. Sufferers want relief, and the injections often give relief. And they are also covered by insurance.\r\n<h3>Alternatives to Cortisone Injections</h3>\r\nGiven that cortisone injections are being given more and more to treat pain in patients with joint arthritis, what is the alternative? Especially when you consider that many arthritis sufferers are at the point where they need relief to just live day to day.\r\n\r\nThat’s where Regenerative Orthopedics comes in!  Treatments like Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy work to<strong> actually repair the arthritic joint.</strong> These treatments provide pain relief. But they don’t provide relief at the expense of the joint. <em><strong>They actually heal the joint, strengthen the structures of the joints, and even boost growth of cartilage</strong></em>. Regenerative Orthopedics regenerates the joint rather than causing degeneration like what occurs with cortisone injections.\r\n\r\nThere is also minimal downtime needed to receive these regenerative treatments. That means you can continue to exercise, and move the joint, which is essential for a healthy joint. Exercise helps ease pain, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles around the joints.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics is the treatment of choice to achieve the pain relief you desire, while returning function to your painful arthritic joint, and helping you to once again enjoy the activities you desire to do.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\"><strong>[i]</strong></a> Kompel AJ, Roemer FW, Murakami AM, Dias LE, Crema MD, Guermazi A.  Intra-articular Corticosteroid Injections in the Hip and Knee: Perhaps Not as Safe as We Thought?

That is why, when your physician discusses cortisone injection with you, it is recommended that the injections not be given more than once every three months. Hopefully, the reason behind the limits is explained as well, since it is important for the patient to be educated on the risks of treatment with cortisone injections.\r\n<h2>Cortisone Injections May Do More Harm than Good</h2>\r\nThe researchers in this most recent study looked at the effect of cortisone injected into knees and hips, and found that the cortisone boosted the progression of arthritis and accelerated the need for joint replacement surgery. The researchers looked at 459 patients who received one to three cortisone injections into the hip or knee in 2018. Almost a tenth of these developed complications such as cartilage loss, stress fractures, bone loss, and joint destruction in the two to fifteen months following the injections. The authors note that this percentage may be an understatement because half of the participants did not receive follow-up imaging tests to assess the health of their joints.\r\n\r\nIn summary, the studies are showing that cortisone injections accelerate arthritis and can be detrimental in the long-run. But even with this knowledge, cortisone injections continue to be recommended frequently for joint pain. Millions of Americans suffer from arthritis and its symptoms of pain, swelling, cartilage loss, and bone destruction. Sufferers want relief, and the injections often give relief. They are also covered by insurance.\r\n\r\nGiven that cortisone injections are being given more and more to treat pain in patients with joint arthritis, what is the alternative, especially since many sufferers are at the point where they need relief to just live day to day. That’s where Regenerative Orthopedics comes in!  Treatments like Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy work to actually repair the arthritic joint. These treatments provide pain relief, but they don’t do so at the expense of the joint. They actually heal the joint, strengthen the structures of the joints, and even boost growth of cartilage. Regenerative Orthopedics regenerates the joint rather than causing degeneration like what occurs with cortisone injections.\r\n\r\nThere is also minimal downtime needed to receive these regenerative treatments, so you can continue to exercise, and move the joint, which is essential for a healthy joint. Exercise helps ease pain, improve mobility and strengthen muscles around the joints.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics is the treatment of choice to achieve the pain relief you desire, while returning function to your painful arthritic joint, and helping you to once again enjoy the activities you desire to do.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\"><strong>[i]</strong></a> Kompel AJ, Roemer FW, Murakami AM, Dias LE, Crema MD, Guermazi A.  Intra-articular Corticosteroid Injections in the Hip and Knee: Perhaps Not as Safe as We Thought?

Fields MD DC are a modern, effective and less invasive way to deal with joint and muscle pain and injury for athletes or anyone who wants quick and healthy relief.\r\n\r\nAs a pioneer of treatments involving <strong>PRP in Los Angeles</strong>, Peter A Fields MD DC works with patients who need fast relief from joint and muscle pain but who also want the latest and most natural healing methods available.\r\n<div class=\"clearfix\"></div>\r\n\r\n<h4>What Is PRP Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nThere are two ways prolotherapy can be administered. In <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">dextrose prolotherapy</a>, a solution is injected that is created from organic substances, while PRP prolotherapy uses platelets from the patient\'s own body. While more expensive and time-consuming, PRP has worked well in some cases in which dextrose prolotherapy proved ineffective.\r\n\r\nPRP prolotherapy has been shown to be highly effective at stimulating tissue repair and regenerating weak muscles, joints and other body components. When injected into an injury or pain site, prolotherapy fluids often have remarkable outcomes in terms of patient recovery times and lack of side effects.\r\n\r\nPRP treatment specifically focuses on giving patients doses of their own platelets, derived from drawn blood. Blood contains a certain number of platelets per fluid unit. By concentrating those platelets and reinjecting them into the body, not only can tissues heal remarkably quickly but the patient is not exposed to drugs or other foreign substances that can cause reactions.\r\n\r\n<h4>PRP vs. Surgery and Other Methods</h4>\r\nWhile there are many methods, including surgery, for treating injury or pain, PRP has some distinct advantages, including:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Less pain and shorter recovery time when compared to surgery or other invasive methods</li>\r\n 	<li>No addictive drugs.</li>\r\n 	<li>Short recovery time</li>\r\n 	<li>Quicker healing time</li>\r\n 	<li>No long-term treatment outlook</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nPRP prolotherapy is more expensive than other forms of prolotherapy, so the professionals at OrthoRegen may try other methods before recommending this particular treatment option.\r\n\r\n<h4>What Conditions Can Be Treated With PRP and Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nAt OrthoRegen, my Los Angeles PRP and Prolotherapy clinic, we use injections to treat a variety of disorders and chronic or acute pain conditions. These conditions include:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>ACL</li>\r\n 	<li>Tears</li>\r\n 	<li>Arthritis</li>\r\n 	<li>Bulging discs</li>\r\n 	<li>Bursitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Fibromyalgia</li>\r\n 	<li>Bone on Bone conditions</li>\r\n 	<li>Hip dysfunction</li>\r\n 	<li>Hip replacement</li>\r\n 	<li><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/knee-injury-treatment/\">Knee injury</a></li>\r\n 	<li>Knee replacement</li>\r\n 	<li>Lumbar or cervical spine instability</li>\r\n 	<li>Tendinitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Rotator cuff injuries</li>\r\n 	<li>Sciatica</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nLos Angeles PRP Doctor\r\n\r\nPeter A. Fields, MD DC, also known as \"<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/about/the-athletic-doc/about-the-athletic-doc/\">The Athletic Doc®</a>,\" is a Los Angeles PRP Doctor with years of experience in working with PRP and prolotherapy candidates and can help patients decide what is the right method of treatment for their particular needs.

Unfortunately, almost any type of sports activity can result in injuries to joints, ligaments and tendons. But these activities can lead to damage and injuries, which is why so many active people become patients of Los Angeles Prolotherapy Doctor Peter A Fields.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> and <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/prp-treatment/\">PRP Prolotherapy</a> are effective ways to treat tendon, ligament and musculoskeletal damage or pain naturally and without invasive surgery or addictive drugs. OrthoRegen and Peter A. Fields MD DC, \"<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/about/the-athletic-doc/about-the-athletic-doc/\">The Athletic Doc®</a>,\" have made it possible to find quality treatment utilizing Prolotherapy in Los Angeles.\r\n<div class=\"clear\"></div>\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>What Is Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> is a shortened form of \"proliferation therapy\" and is named for the idea that this technique helps the body heal itself. It may also be called \"regenerative injection therapy\" or \"proliferative injection therapy.\" Prolotherapy treatments consist of a series of injections that are designed to produce inflammation in injured tissue in order to spur the body\'s natural healing mechanisms to take over.\r\n\r\nWhen the body suffers an injury, it responds by producing growth factors. The process that leads up to this production and how these growth factors help the body heal are topics that are extremely complicated. However, researchers have observed one fact that is very easy to understand: areas with high levels of blood flow and many blood vessels are far more receptive to healing than those areas without high levels of blood flow. This means that ligaments, tendons and cartilage, which all have poor blood supplies, may not heal as quickly as other areas of the body.\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, some of the drugs used to treat pain and swelling may also interfere with proper healing. Medications like NSAIDS may cause patients to heal more slowly or suffer complications from drug therapies. Ironically, the very nature of NSAIDS and what they do—reduce swelling and inflammation—may be the reason they interfere with natural healing. When the body suffers inflammation, it is a signal to produce the factors that will heal the wounded area.\r\n\r\n<h4>How Does Prolotherapy Work?</h4>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a>, on the other hand, works with the body\'s natural processes to provide permanent healing. Prolotherapy basically tricks the body into healing itself! By injecting mildly irritating substances into the body, Prolotherapy treatments trigger a natural healing response. Prolotherapy can also include painkillers such as lidocaine to ease discomfort and soothe any sensations of irritation or swelling.\r\n\r\n<h4>Does Prolotherapy Work?</h4>\r\nDextrose Prolotherapy has been studied for many years and has been shown not only to help heal various injuries but in conjunction with PRP Prolotherapy and/or <a href=\"/regenerative-techniques/stem-cell-treatment/\">Stem Cell</a> (Cellular Regeneration) triggers growth of new cartilage. This outcome has tremendous possibilities for patients with serious injuries or degenerative diseases. While more research is needed to explore all of Prolotherapy\'s possibilities, the future looks bright for Prolotherapy patients.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest advantages of Prolotherapy is that it helps patients <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/how-prolotherapy-can-eliminate-joint-pain-without-surgery/\">avoid joint surgery</a>. Patients who are facing a knee replacement or who have suffered with <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">shoulder</a> or hip pain for many months or years may be able to heal without the necessity of going \"under the knife.\"\r\n\r\n<h4>What Conditions Can Be Treated With Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nAt OrthoRegen, my Los Angeles Prolotherapy clinic, we use injections to treat a variety of disorders and chronic or acute pain conditions. These conditions include:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>ACL</li>\r\n 	<li>Tears</li>\r\n 	<li>Arthritis</li>\r\n 	<li>Bulging discs</li>\r\n 	<li>Bursitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Fibromyalgia</li>\r\n 	<li>Bone on Bone conditions</li>\r\n 	<li>Hip dysfunction</li>\r\n 	<li>Hip replacement</li>\r\n 	<li><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/knee-injury-treatment/\">Knee injury</a></li>\r\n 	<li>Knee replacement</li>\r\n 	<li>Lumbar or cervical spine instability</li>\r\n 	<li>Tendinitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Rotator cuff injuries</li>\r\n 	<li>Sciatica</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h4>How Did Prolotherapy Begin?</h4>\r\nProlotherapy is based on principles from ancient Greek medicine , but did not become accepted by the modern medical community until the 1950s when Drs. George Hackett and Gustav Hemwall began research on how the body is able to heal itself with the proper support and treatment. Modern medicine has not been successful in treating many types of tendon and ligament damage and pain, so the surge in popularity of alternative treatments such as Prolotherapy is understandable.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy has been shown to have a beneficial effect for many patients and to help them <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/articles/prolo-news/joint-surgery-think-again-learn-about-prolotherapy/\">avoid surgery</a> as a last resort to treat painful damaged joints and tendons. Just a few Prolotherapy treatments may restore joint function and ease pain permanently.\r\n\r\n<h4>What Can I Expect From Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\nBefore you can be treated using <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\r\n\">Prolotherapy</a>, you will be examined by Dr. Peter A Fields, the premier Los Angeles Prolotherapy Doctor and an internationally renowned expert in the field of regenerative medicine. It is very important to take Prolotherapy treatments in a controlled environment to ensure the procedure is administered correctly. Dr. Fields will perform some simple manual tests to assess your condition, review any X-rays or MRI’s you may have received and determine the best site for Prolotherapy injections.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy treatments begin with a simple injection to the site of joint damage. It is important for the injections to be given at the right spot, such as where the tendon connects to the bone, in order to receive maximum benefit. The injections are relatively painless and take only a few minutes.\r\n\r\nYou are then sent home to rest and gradually begin working your damaged joint according to an agreed therapy schedule. It is important to follow the instructions given by Dr. Fields. You may be required to take follow-up injections, depending on the efficacy of the initial treatment. These injections will be spaced over a period of time to give your body the best chance to heal.\r\n\r\nOnce your Prolotherapy injection regimen is complete, you should enjoy the kind of change for the better in joint mobility and pain level that many patients of Dr. Fields have experienced. Your medical caregivers will continue to monitor you for some time to ensure that your Prolotherapy treatments are a success.\r\n\r\n<h4>Los Angeles Prolotherapy</h4>\r\nPeter A.

If you are a cyclist, the riding position can be too painful to maintain for long distances. In cases of contact sport trauma, a hit to the head or neck can loosen the ligaments in the neck which hold the vertebrae together. This can lead to neck instability and chronic headaches.\r\n\r\nMost patients try to self-treat with NSAID medications (Ibuprofen, Naproxen). Those drugs eventually become ineffective and often a patient seeks even stronger prescription medications, nerve blocks or an MRI is taken and surgery is recommended. There is an alternative to cervical fusion for chronic neck pain and headaches by using comprehensive <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> neck treatment at OrthoRegen.\r\n\r\n<h4>Prolotherapy Neck Treatment by Peter A Fields, MD DC</h4>\r\nDr. Fields, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/about/the-athletic-doc/about-the-athletic-doc/\">The Athletic Doc<sup>®</sup></a>, has treated athletes at all levels of sport, Olympic hopefuls to weekend warriors, Ironman competitors to student athletes.

The neck enables the head to move and to rotate, but if you can\'t move your neck normally, your life can be severely disrupted and your activities can be limited. Depending on the cause and type of your neck injury or condition, your best choice may be prolotherapy for chronic neck pain.\r\n\r\n<h4>What Causes Neck Pain?</h4>\r\nYour neck is composed of seven cervical vertebrae. These vertebrae support your head, serve as an attachment point for the muscles that move your head, and protect the spinal cord between the brain and thoracic vertebrae.\r\n\r\nSymptoms of <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-faq/\">neck pain</a> can include:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Headaches</li>\r\n 	<li>Pain in the shoulder, arm or hand</li>\r\n 	<li>Reduced range of motion in the neck</li>\r\n 	<li>Numbness, weakness, and slower reflexes in the arms, legs, hands and feet.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\nIf you are experiencing minor neck pain, you may be experiencing early symptoms of arthritis. Osteoarthritis can begin as young as thirty and symptoms may begin to appear years after the disease begins.\r\n\r\nA strain or spasm of the muscles in the neck or inflammation of the neck can be the causes of the neck pain you feel. Pain in the neck can also be caused by injury such as whiplash or a blow to the head or neck while playing sports. Cervical disk degeneration, a pinched nerve, meningitis, influenza, a heart attack or torticollis, can also be causes of neck pain. Anything that causes stress on the muscles in the upper body and arms, including poor posture, and sleeping on a pillow that is too high, can be causes of localized neck pain.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Neck Pain</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not take care of the cause of the pain.\r\n\r\nPatients with pain in almost any joint in the body can now <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-pain-overview/\">treat their chronic pain with Prolotherapy</a>. It just depends on the cause of your particular pain.\r\n\r\nMost of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Prolotherapy can regenerate these damaged tissues and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected neck ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are you a Candidate For Prolotherapy for Chronic Neck Pain?</h4>\r\nOur goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working, training and living a normal life during the recovery process. Prolotherapy for chronic neck pain is one of the few treatments that encourages movement post-treatment. Movement actually aids the healing process after <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a>. By contrast, surgery requires you to reduce activity after treatment.\r\n\r\nWould you like a <strong>second opinion before you have neck surgery or begin other treatments</strong>? Would you like to know if you are you a candidate for Prolotherapy for your chronic neck pain? The only way to know for sure is to get a consultation. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Contact Us Today</a> for a consultation or call Dr. Fields at <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>','Chronic Neck Pain','','inherit','closed','closed','','509-revision-v1','','','2019-10-18 08:41:38','2019-10-18 08:41:38','',509,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/509-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2931,8,'2019-10-18 08:41:46','2019-10-18 08:41:46','<h4>Treat Your Chronic Pain With Prolotherapy</h4>\r\n\r\n<div id=\"youtubeleft\" class=\"youtube-click-div \">[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=\"hA1FVmxWixE\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" anchor=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Dr.-Barry-Leonard-PRP-Knee.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Barry Leonard - PRP Knee\"]<strong>Dr. Barry Leonard - PRP Knee</strong></div>\r\n<div id=\"youtubeleft\" class=\"youtube-click-div \">[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=\"vQGBBEARjMk\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" anchor=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/May-Knee.jpg\" alt=\"May - Knee\"]<strong>May - Knee</strong></div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"clearfix\"></div>\r\n\r\nAre you suffering from a back injury, a work-related injury or a sports injury? Is your Chronic Pain changing your lifestyle and preventing you from doing the things you want to do? If it has, then a doctor might have told you that you need to have surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone injections or take dangerous NSAIDS to treat your chronic pain. In many cases, those may not be the best treatments. Depending on the nature of your injury, you may be able to <strong>treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy</strong>.\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Pain?</h4>\r\nPain can be defined as a feeling of distress, suffering, or agony, caused by stimulation of specialized nerve endings in the body, resulting from injury or disease. Pain receptors, found in the skin and other tissues are nerve fibres that react to stimuli. Pain impulses enter the spinal cord and are transmitted to your brain, where they are interpreted as pain. The purpose of pain in a person’s body is chiefly protective; pain acts as a warning that tissues are being damaged. This tissue damage can be actual or potential.\r\n\r\n<h4>Acute Pain vs Chronic Pain</h4>\r\nThere are two general categories of pain: acute pain and chronic pain. Acute pain is intense and can last from a few seconds to hours or days. This severe pain should wane as healing of the injury or disease occurs. Chronic pain however, can range from mild to severe and can last weeks, months or longer. Chronic pain is pain that continues or recurs over a prolonged period. Under certain conditions the pain receptors in the body become more sensitive over a period of time. This means that as long as a traumatic stimulus persists, you will continue to be aware that damage to the tissues may still be occurring.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Am I Still In Pain?</h4>\r\nYou might wonder why there is still pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after healing for weeks, months or years. The answer is that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation. This lack of blood supply deprives these tissues of nutrients they need to heal properly.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> builds stronger or larger tendons or ligaments that can hold body structures in place more effectively. The weakened area heals, and the patient’s pain is reduced or eliminated. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which long-term studies show, can actually weaken tissue.\r\n\r\n<h4>Who Uses Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not deal with the cause of the pain. Most of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Athletes with sports injuries are especially interested in the use of Prolotherapy for treatment because it is an alternative to surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone shots, non-steroidal and anti-inflammatories, and chronic use of narcotic pain medications. These measures may not help, and often hinder or even prevent the healing process.\r\n\r\nDo you suffer from <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-knee-pain/\">chronic knee pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">Chronic shoulder pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-neck-pain/\">Chronic neck pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-elbow-pain/\">Chronic elbow pain</a>? Or is your chronic pain somewhere else in your body, such as your back, hips, or ankles? Wherever it is, Dr. Fields may be able to treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Prolotherapy Works</h4>\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\nThe potential for Prolotherapy to eliminate chronic pain is very high, especially in sports injuries that are a result of ligament and tendon weakness. Prolotherapy can regenerate damaged tissues and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain. Our goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working and training during the recovery process. It is one treatment that encourages movement post-treatment.

At OrthoRegen, we utilize the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Treatments, which is an effective non-surgical alternative, and one that very well may help you<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> <em>Avoid Joint Replacement Surgery</em></span>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<strong>If you have been told</strong> that you have any of these conditions...\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Bone-on-bone</li>\r\n 	<li>Severe arthritis</li>\r\n 	<li>A degenerated joint</li>\r\n 	<li>Your cartilage has been worn away,</li>\r\n 	<li>The only option left is to have your joint replaced...</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n...you now have another option.\r\n\r\nThat\'s because your Stem Cells have the potential to regenerate into any type of body tissue. Their use in regenerative medicine is growing in popularity in the medical world as an <em>alternative to invasive orthopedic surgeries including total joint replacement</em>. The remarkable thing about Stem Cells is the fact that when you inject them into a specific area of the body, they know what kinds of cells your body needs – for example, meniscus cells or cartilage cells.\r\n<h4>What is our Stem Cell Procedure for Joints and Spine?</h4>\r\nOur Stem Cell technique we use for joints and spine is <strong><em>The Gold Standard</em></strong> for stem cell regeneration. We use all four kinds of regenerative Orthopedics for this procedure to help you avoid invasive surgery. Many other clinics only use one or two of these procedures, but not all four.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>We use bone marrow stem cells as well as adipose (fat) stem cells.</li>\r\n 	<li>Both solutions are then centrifuged and concentrated to get a solution with the highest amount of stem cells. We inject both of these sources of stem cells into the joint.</li>\r\n 	<li>We then use <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/prp-treatment/\">PRP Prolotherapy</a> to accelerate their healing.</li>\r\n 	<li>In addition, we use <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Dextrose Prolotherapy</a> on the outside of the joint to help stabilize the ligaments and tendons that hold the joint in place.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nUsing two sources of stem cells (bone and fat) as well as PRP Prolotherapy and Dextrose Prolotherapy is <strong><em>The Gold Standard</em></strong> for stem cell regeneration.\r\n\r\nAgain, this procedure is usually used for cases where you have been told to have their joint replaced, have bone-on-bone, advanced arthritis, severe meniscus or labral tear or other aggressive injuries. This is only recommended after a very thorough history and physical exam. It is important to have an x-ray to confirm what is known from the above exams. Not everyone is a candidate for this procedure, but many are.\r\n\r\nWhy is it so important that you know about this alternative to joint replacement surgery? Because <strong><em>once surgery is done, it cannot be un-done!</em></strong>\r\n<h4>Why Stem Cell Therapy Works: Types of Stem Cells</h4>\r\n<strong>Bone Marrow Stem Cells</strong>\r\nStem cells are contained within bone marrow. This has been shown in studies for many years now. Harvesting them from one’s own body eliminates the possibility of cross reaction or rejection since it is your own body supplying the stem cells.  This autologous (meaning \"obtained from oneself\") bone marrow aspirate contains not only mesenchymal stem cells (cells that are able to develop into the tissues such as bone and cartilage) but also progenitor cells, which are a different type of stem-like cell.\r\n\r\nBone marrow also contains other cells that produce growth factors and cytokines (cells that affect the behavior of other cells). These cytokines aid in fibroblastic proliferation. Fibroblasts are cells that synthesize the structural framework.  Stem cells have the ability to form tissues like bone, cartilage, labrum, meniscus, ligaments and more.  All this allows for repair and remodeling of cartilage, bone and other soft tissue structures such as meniscus, labrums, ligaments and tendons.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<strong>Adipose Stem Cells </strong>\r\nOn the other hand adipose tissue is also a rich source of adult stem cells. These cells, harvested from one’s own fat, have an extensive proliferative capacity and can differentiate into multiple cell lines. Stem cells derived from adipose tissue can differentiate ligaments, bone, cartilage, muscle or ligaments. This type of stem cell is now being used in musculoskeletal medicine to regenerate not only the above tissues but to provide a scaffolding to hold the stem cells in place and allow them to grow. Adipose-derived stem cells are similar to, but not identical to bone marrow cells.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignleft wp-image-732 size-full\" title=\"stem cell treatment los angeles\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Stem-Cell1.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell1\" width=\"215\" height=\"167\" />Not all injuries require stem cells to heal. The success rate with traditional Prolotherapy (both Dextrose and PRP) is in the 90%+ range for all patients. However, for those cases of advanced arthritis, severe meniscus tears or labral tears, bone-on-bone, aggressive injuries or where one has been told to have their joint replaced, some may need to use Stem Cell Prolotherapy to regenerate the defective joint. I use this in combination with <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/prp-treatment/\">PRP Prolotherapy</a> (to accelerate the stem cell healing) and with <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Dextrose Prolotherapy</a> (to strengthen and stabilize the surrounding support structures).\r\n\r\nAs more and more research comes out, what is known by a few physicians is being proven. A recent research study was conducted and titled, “Transplanted bone marrow and fat mesenchymal stem cells with platelet-rich fibrin glue scaffold stimulates full-thickness cartilage defects to heal.”\r\n<h4>Research On Stem Cell Treatment for Joints</h4>\r\nSeveral human studies using bone marrow and fat stem cells for articular cartilage lesions have been done. Articular cartilage is a type of cartilage that covers joint surfaces and is most susceptible to injury compared to other types of cartilage. Researchers at Cairo University School of Medicine and the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine reported on the use of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and a platelet-rich fibrin scaffold to heal full-thickness cartilage defects in five patients. The researchers studied the treatment results from the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with success.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignright wp-image-735 size-full\" title=\"stem cell treatment los angeles\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Stem-Cell2.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell2\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" />Articular Cartilage has limited repair capacity and marrow-stimulation procedures such as micro fracture, osteochondral grafts and autologous cartilage implantations have had limited success in articular cartilage defects. The researchers from this study chose mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow because these have the ability to differentiate into cartilage cells. In the case of these five patients the bone marrow was harvested from the iliac crest (hip bone).\r\n\r\nPlatelets were used as a scaffold because platelets contain various growth factors that stimulate cartilage regeneration. The researchers expected that the biological effect of multiple growth factors on tissue regeneration is greater than that of a single growth factor.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Stem Cell Treatment Results</strong>\r\nThe patients showed significant functional improvement. Two of the patients underwent arthroscopy after the transplantation and showed near normal articular cartilage. Three postoperative MRIs revealed complete healing and congruent cartilage tissue, whereas two patient MRIs showed incomplete (it was partial and not 100% complete) congruity in the cartilage tissue.\r\n\r\nThe researchers concluded that the transplantation of autologous culture-expanded bone marrow-mesenchymal stem cells in platelet rich-fibrin glue shows great promise in the treatment of full-thickness articular cartilage defects, particularly large-sized defects (&gt;4 cm).  The positive 1 year clinical outcomes support further randomized controlled clinical trials of this treatment modality with larger numbers of patients and longer follow-up periods.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n<h4>How Can Stem Cell Therapy Help Your Joints or Spine</h4>\r\nIf you\'ve been told that you need to have joint replacement surgery -- whether that\'s knee replacement surgery, hip replacement surgery, shoulder replacement surgery (or any other joint), or if you\'ve been told that you need to have spine surgery due to arthritis, bone-on-bone, or other conditions, you owe it to yourself to examine all other alternatives to surgery before going under the knife.\r\n\r\nJoint Replacement Surgery and Spine Surgery are very invasive procedures, and each comes with its own long list of reasons to avoid it at all costs: hospital stays, potential (dangerous) complications, long recovery times, and the need to have the procedure redone at some point.

With Prolotherapy (also called Dextrose Prolotherapy), the weakened areas are injected with a solution that stimulates the growth of healthy, strong tissues. As the tendons and ligaments grow stronger and vibrant, the pain is alleviated and motion is restored.\r\n\r\nWhether a joint, ligament or tendon is causing you pain or limited movement, Prolotherapy might be the right choice for you. Prolotherapy can help with arthritis, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/knee-injury-treatment/\">knee injuries</a>, tendinitis (tennis elbow), hip dysfunction, bulging discs, lumbar or cervical spine instability, bursitis, ACL Tears, <a href=\"#\">rotator cuff injuries</a> and more.\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Treatment Repairs Joints and Relieves Pain</h4>\r\nProlotherapy\'s modern model was founded in the 1950s by Drs. George Hackett and Gustav Hemwall, but the notion of irritating an injured area to stimulate the body to heal itself goes back to ancient Greece. Prolotherapy helps your body make new cells, which strengthen lax or torn tendons and ligaments (ligaments are the tough tissues which connect bones to bones and tendons are the same kind of tissue which connect muscles to bones).\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\nYou might wonder why you still have pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after a healing period of weeks, months or years. The answer lies in the fact that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation and it is this lack of blood supply which deprives them of the nutrients they need to heal properly. These weakened areas may have <strong>little or no blood flow</strong>, but they have lots of nerves. That’s why you may feel a significant amount of pain.\r\n\r\nRelaxed and weak ligaments lead to increased cartilage degeneration and finally bone-on-bone friction, which may result in arthritis type pain. Additionally, nerves around the soft tissues become stretched and irritated, also producing pain.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-644\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/couple1.jpg\" alt=\"Couple1\" width=\"200\" height=\"298\" />\r\n<h4>What is Prolotherapy Treatment Like?</h4>\r\nThe Prolotherapy technique involves the injection of a proliferant (a mild irritant solution – dextrose, phenol, glycerin, etc.) that causes an inflammatory response which stimulates the healing process. A local anesthetic is used so there is <strong>minimal discomfort</strong> with the injections. This results in a stronger or larger tendon or ligament that can hold body structures in place more effectively. The weakened area heals, and the <strong>patient\'s pain is reduced or eliminated</strong>. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/Articles/Prolo-News/Cortisone-Is-it-Really-Good-for-You\">cortisone injections</a>, which long-term studies have shown can actually weaken tissue.\r\n\r\nMost patients require about 4 to 6 Prolotherapy treatments to restore function and relieve pain, but many find improvement after only one session. The treatments are usually given at two to four week intervals.\r\n\r\nIn addition to chronic (and in some cases acute) back and <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-neck-pain/\">neck pain</a>, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">shoulder</a>, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-knee-pain/\">knee</a> and other joint pain, tendonitis and bursitis, prolotherapy has been shown to be effective at eliminating the pain of such conditions as <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/sports-injuries-treatment-overview/\">sports injuries</a>, tendonitis, arthritis, sciatica, some headaches, degenerated joints, fibromyalgia, and more.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy is a non-surgical treatment heartily endorsed by former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, who himself was a prolotherapist. The late diet guru Robert Atkins, M.D., also used \"prolo\" at his New York clinic and called it a miraculous treatment.\r\n<h4 class=\"text-center\">Video: What is Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\n<div style=\"display: table; margin: 0 auto;\">[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=\"scdadG1A2Vk\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" anchor=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Dextrose-Prolotherapy-Overview.jpg\" alt=\"Dextrose Prolotherapy Overview\"]</div>\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"/regenerative-techniques/prolotherapy-videos/\">View More Videos on Prolotherapy</a>\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\nCall <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a> today for a free phone consultation with Dr. Peter Fields to see if Prolotherapy treatment can get you pain free and ‘back in the game’ or help you resume your normal lifestyle.

But you already know that because of the extreme pain you are in.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Stem-Cell-Doctor-Peter-Fields-MD-DC-1.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell Doctor Peter Fields Md Dc\" width=\"176\" height=\"280\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1685\" />If you’ve been told by an orthopedic surgeon that <strong>you need surgery</strong> to repair your damaged joint, then you are facing a hospital visit, general anesthesia, risks of complications, weeks or months of limited ability on crutches or in a cast, and <strong>up to a year of recovery and physical therapy</strong> before the surgeon says things might be “normal” again.\r\n\r\nBefore you commit to a surgery that you may regret from the very first day, you should know <strong>that there IS an alternative to joint surgery</strong> that has none of those disadvantages.\r\n\r\n<strong>My name is Dr. Peter Fields</strong>, and I am the leading expert in Regenerative Orthopedics and uniquely degreed as both an MD and a Doctor of Chiropractic. I’m here to tell you that in many cases, you do NOT need to have surgery to repair a severely damaged ligament, tendon, labrum, or meniscus and the pain that goes with it.\r\n\r\nMy treatments have helped thousands of people resume their normal lives without joint surgery, and there’s a very good chance that I can do the same for you.\r\n\r\nI am a specialist in a natural, nonsurgical method of assisting the body to heal injured tendons and ligaments called <strong>Prolotherapy</strong>. My Prolotherapy treatments help your body make new cells to repair the damage in your joint. And for severe tears injuries like yours, that means PRP Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\n<strong>>Prolotherapy</strong> is a treatment that causes an increase in nutrient-rich blood cells in the affected area, causing your body to heal and strengthen injured or weakened ligaments, tendons or joints. Your own body does the work to grow healthy, strong and vibrant tissue. It’s incredibly effective.\r\n\r\nAs the tissue grows and strengthens, your joint begins to operate properly, and your pain (and the causes of your pain) dissipate. Many of my patients enjoy a <strong>permanent recovery</strong> from their symptoms and go back to living a normal life without joint pain.\r\n\r\nThat means you fix your joint problem and eliminate your pain with…\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong> NO hospital stay </strong></li>\r\n 	<li><strong> NO general anesthesia </strong></li>\r\n 	<li><strong> NO surgery </strong></li>\r\n 	<li><strong> NO surgical complications </strong></li>\r\n 	<li><strong> NO long recovery </strong></li>\r\n</ul>\r\nWhen your injury is mild to moderate, we use Dextrose Prolotherapy. The dextrose formula causes your body to send platelets -- the part of your blood that contains healing growth factors -- to the affected area.\r\n\r\n<h4>What is PRP Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\n<strong>For more severe damage, we use PRP Prolotherapy.</strong> PRP means “Platelet Rich Plasma”, and the therapy isolates the platelets from your own blood in a centrifuge, and then re-injects this “platelet rich plasma” -- with 7 to 10 times more concentrated growth factors -- where it’s needed. PRP is more effective in these severe situations and typically results in 80% to 85% reduction in joint pain and a similar increase in range of motion. And the results are permanent.\r\n\r\nIn addition to severe tendon and ligament tears, torn meniscus and torn labrum, PRP is also effective with torn achilles tendon, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and a long list of severe sports injuries in any joint.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for PRP Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\n\r\nLet’s get you on the path to recovery without joint surgery. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/How-PRP-Repairs-Ligaments-and-Tendons-Without-Surgery#contact\">Contact my office today</a> or call me at <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a> and set up a consultation to find out if you are a candidate for PRP Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n<iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/vQGBBEARjMk?rel=0&amp;wmode=opaque\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" width=\"100%\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe>\r\n<div class=\"text-wrap\">\r\n<p class=\"video-text\"> May - Knee -&nbsp;<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">NEW!</span></p>\r\n<p>After a half marathon, May couldn’t even walk back to her car!

The majority of folks have received years of different types of treatments such as multiple cortisone injections, prescriptions for NSAIDs (which actually degenerate articular cartilage further), and other therapies that have failed to sufficiently relieve their pain. They have tried the different treatments offered by their doctor and orthopedic surgeons, only to find that they haven’t worked.  The degenerative arthritis in their hip hasn’t stopped, and their hips just aren’t functioning like they want or need them to. And now, their “ortho doc” is recommending hip replacement, but they don’t want that and are looking for a way to avoid the surgery! Regenerative Orthopedics gives them a non-surgical option and an alternative to hip replacement surgery.</span>\r\n\r\n<b>The Hip and Arthritis</b>\r\n\r\n<b></b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The hip is a ball and socket joint that connects the leg to the pelvis. </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has very large ligaments that work to stabilize the hip and prevent injuries. The hip joint has a ring of cartilage that seals the ball and socket called the labrum, which helps to provide movement between the leg and pelvis. Overuse injuries or traumatic injuries to these various soft tissue structures damage them (ligaments, tendons, and/or hip labrum) and put into motion the arthritis cycle. As this cycle progresses, arthritis pain becomes a source of persistent and often unrelenting pain and disability, which puts a damper on </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">everyday activities, and sometimes makes even the simplest of tasks difficult to accomplish. That is why so many people turn to Regenerative Orthopedics for Chronic Hip Pain treatment.</span>\r\n\r\n<b>What Causes Hip Pain?</b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arthritis is the most common cause of chronic hip pain. Symptoms may include pain while driving or pain with sitting for longer periods of time. Other symptoms include limited motion in the hip, with stiffness, pain, and soreness. Have you started to waddle? Waddling is definitely something we observe in those with hip arthritis.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arthritis, and the loss of cartilage that accompanies it, did not just happen overnight! At some point the hip joint was destabilized by injury. Most of our patients can recall some type of trauma to the hip, or even a previous hip procedure. Traumas will injure the ligaments, tendons, and labrum, which set the hip joint up to be unstable. The ongoing instability causes abnormal motion in the hip joint which wears out and promotes degeneration of the hip structures. Left unrepaired, this instability in the hip joint encourages the arthritis cycle. Abnormal motion leads to wear of the joint structures, which causes more abnormality in the hip motion, which destroys the hip joint further.  How does surgery cause arthritis to worsen? In surgeries, like hip arthroscopy, the surgeon reshapes, shaves, and/or removes structures in the hip. The cutting, shaving, and scraping of the hip joint structures worsens the instability. Surgery itself stretches out the ligaments and tendons of the hip, just to get the large arthroscope into the hip, and the stretching weakens the ligaments and tendons. In the end, this all adds to the abnormal motion and instability of the joint. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Labral tears, femoroacetabular impingement, and hip dysplasia are a few other structural hip disorders that can cause chronic joint pain and promote ongoing joint instability, and later, the development of arthritis. Surgeons may recommend surgery for all of these conditions. But conservative, non-surgical options, including Regenerative Orthopedics, should be considered prior to opting for surgery. </span>\r\n\r\n<b>How Regenerative Orthopedics Is Used To Treat Chronic Hip Pain</b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have other treatments failed to give you the relief from pain you seek, or the return to function you once enjoyed? Regenerative Orthopedics are very successful at changing many patients lives for the better by decreasing pain and stiffness levels, boosting exercise ability, and lowering or eliminating the need for pain medication.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with other joints, musculoskeletal pain is usually due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and other soft tissue, like the labrum. Regenerative Orthopedics can strengthen the weak and injured soft tissue, repair the injury, and </span><b>regenerate damaged tissue, </b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">which ultimately alleviates and resolves the pain.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The regenerative solutions are injected into the affected hip ligaments, tendons, labrum, and associated joint structures, which stimulates the body’s natural healing cascade to initiate repair to the area. New collagen is deposited, and since this is the material in which ligaments and tendons are made, the result is tighten and stronger soft tissue structures.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Regenerative Orthopedic solutions are very safe, affordable options that allow you to keep working, training, and living a normal life without the need for an extended recovery process. In cases of severe degeneration, the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy may be recommended for optimal repair and return to function.  When you receive Regenerative Orthopedic treatments for chronic hip pain, movement will be encouraged, rather than immobilization, because movement is important, and even essential to the healing process.</span>\r\n\r\n<b>Are You A Candidate for Regenerative Orthopedics for Chronic Hip Pain?</b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Would you like a </span><b>second opinion before you have irreversible hip surgery for your unrelenting, chronic hip pain</b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?  Schedule a consultation and find out if you are a good candidate for our Regenerative Orthopedic treatments. </span><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact us today</span></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a consultation, or call OrthoRegen at </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[phone]</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.</span>','Chronic Hip Pain','','inherit','closed','closed','','2665-revision-v1','','','2019-10-18 08:53:25','2019-10-18 08:53:25','',2665,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/2665-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2938,8,'2019-10-18 08:53:36','2019-10-18 08:53:36','<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regenerative Orthopedics might not be as well known as they should be, but they can have an incredible impact on your life. When your tendons and ligaments hurt or are otherwise injured, it can take an awful toll on your life. Pain in your ligaments and tendons can make any physical activity more difficult: getting up, sitting down, walking and everything in between. </span><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/articles/prolo-news/repairing-sports-injuries-with-regenerative-orthopedics/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>Regenerative Orthopedics</b></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are a great way to not only heal your wounded ligaments and tendons, but they are a way to do so without having to get surgery. At OrthoRegen we can help you to live free from the ligament and tendon pain that is putting a damper on your life.</span>\r\n<h2><b>How Regenerative Orthopedics Work</b></h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Regenerative Orthopedics</strong> target the painful and injured joint structures. Prolotherapy, PRP, and <a href=\"https://www.cirm.ca.gov/patients/power-stem-cells\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stem Cell Therapy</a> stimulate the body’s natural healing cascade, boosting the ability of the body to regenerate and repair. The treatment helps your body to make new cells. See, tendons and ligaments tend to not have the best circulation. That means that they don’t get the blood supply that other parts of your body might. And healing nutrients are in your blood. By encouraging the supply of these nutrients, your body is able to heal more quickly and completely. Instead of being outside of the circulation, or cut off from it, suddenly the area of your body will be awash in these nutrients. Then, the area will be able to heal. Even better, it will be able to heal using the body’s own natural, organic methods.</span>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2563 size-full\" title=\"Regenerative Orthopedics\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Regenerative-Orthopedics-.jpg\" alt=\"Regenerative Orthopedics \" width=\"800\" height=\"544\" />\r\n<h3><b>Safe and Secure</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It’s perfectly understandable if you read the above section and thought something like: “Wow, that sounds effective.” But is it really? At OrthoRegen, we’ve been helping people with joint pain and injury for quite some time. We know how to administer Regenerative Orthopedics by using the Gold Standard of care. With effective treatment, you always want experience! Our practitioners have many, many years of experience in administering Regenerative Orthopedics, such as Prolotherapy, PRP, and Stem Cell Therapy.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We will do everything possible to make this treatment as non-invasive, and make the experience as positive as possible. In addition to being a non-invasive alternative to surgery, this treatment also features an alternative to general anesthesia. You never have to “go under” or anything like that. We will use a local anesthetic to help provide comfort during the procedure. Regenerative Orthopedics effectively provides you with the pain-free results you want, because it strengthens your ligaments and tendons, and gets you back quickly to the activities and sports you love. </span>\r\n<h4><b>In Only a Few Treatments</b></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If anyone says something like, “You only need one Prolotherapy treatment to get the maximum benefit,” they are not telling the whole truth. Sure, sometimes people get better with just one treatment. But it is important to understand that a reputable practitioner will tell you that the average number of treatments are 4-8 treatments sessions for proper healing. You have most likely been suffering with pain for a long time, and the problem did not just develop overnight. In the same way, the body, and specifically the ligament and tendon injuries, will take several months to fully regenerate and heal. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It’s important to note that, in addition to helping your ligaments and tendons, there are no real negative side effects to Regenerative Orthopedics. They benefit your body, without detracting anything from it. They heal and repair, rather than weaken the soft tissue. We mention this because we often have patients say something like, “How are these different from cortisone shots?” Well, you could get cortisone shots and they might be “effective,” but they are only a temporary, short-term, interim solution. Study after study has shown that the effectiveness of cortisone may diminish, and can even weaken the soft tissue eventually.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many people, this might be the first time you are hearing about <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>.  We have several satisfied client testimonies that you are welcome to read and watch.

Maybe they have lasting shoulder pain, or there’s a pain in one or both of their knees that just won’t go away. However, that doesn’t mean that surgery has to be the answer. In fact, <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics</strong> is almost invariably a better option. Not only can these treatments be more beneficial, but they also have much less down-time and recovery time.</span>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2567 size-full\" title=\"Regenerative Orthopedic\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Regenerative-Orthopedic..jpg\" alt=\"Regenerative Orthopedic.\" width=\"800\" height=\"648\" />\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you need surgery, you’re probably already in pain. After the surgery, you’re likely to be in plenty of pain, and then you’ll have to recover, possibly go through physical therapy, and so much more. The prolonged recovery time can cause you to be less effective at your job, or possibly even make you take time off. With <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>, you won’t need to take all that time off for recovery. Over the course of just a few Regenerative Orthopedic treatments, most people note improvement, and before you know it, you’ll be returning to the things in life you enjoy.</span>\r\n<h3><b>PRP </b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The “PRP” stands for “<a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet-rich_plasma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">platelet-rich plasma</a>,” and is one form of <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>. Like so many of our other treatments, this really just uses what’s already in your body to treat you. In the case of PRP, we utilize your own blood to help your body recover. See, these platelets in your blood contain “growth factors,” which means that they can help get soft tissue repairing as it should. For many of our patients, that’s exactly what they need to repair the damaged soft tissue areas of their bodies.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The blood is centrifuged in a special way to cause the plasma to be rich in platelets or have a high concentration of platelets. So, the PRP we inject into the injured area is practically overflowing with growth factors. Then, this injured area of your body that’s been starving for tissue growth gets a giant helping of it. The more platelets in the damaged area, the faster and more completely your tissues will heal.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a treatment that’s been proven to be effective in joints all over the body. Many of our patients with hip labrum problems or knee meniscus injuries have responded wonderfully to this form of treatment, once again able to do the activities and sports they love. When joints are injured, it’s amazing how difficult simple motions are. You will be relieved to be able to walk, sit, or just use your knees and hips again without pain. </span>\r\n\r\n<b>Dextrose Prolotherapy</b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many, this is known as the “original prolotherapy.” When Prolotherapy began in the ’30s, this was the form it took.  Think of your body as a machine. In order for the body to heal the parts of the body that need healing, it sometimes needs a boost. Especially, difficult to heal areas like ligaments and tendons that naturally just do not have a great flow of blood. Prolotherapy is a <strong>Regenerative Orthopedic</strong> therapy that can cause the body to kick into high gear and boost the healing cascade in order to stimulate blood flow and repair the soft tissue parts of your body that have been injured.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this form of Prolotherapy, we inject the soft tissue parts of the joint that have been injured. Then, the blood and healing factors rush to heal the areas that have been damaged. We cause a very temporary and low-grade inflammation which makes your body spring into action. It’s important to note that this is a normal part of the healing process. Utilizing a local anesthetic, we make sure that you’re always comfortable during the treatment process.</span>\r\n<h5><b>Stem Cell Therapy</b></h5>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In cases of severe degeneration or in certain joint injuries, we may recommend Stem Cell Therapy.

You are wary of surgery, but your doctor tells you there’s a better method: stem cells. Somehow, he’s able to use stem cells to regenerate your joints or repair your spine. This isn’t something out of science fiction or a vision from a far-flung future: it’s the present. When you have the right </span><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/stem-cell-treatment/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>stem cell doctor in Santa Monica</b></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by your side, you can heal your joints and spine without surgery.</span>\r\n<h2><b>Restoring Your Painful Joints with Your Own Stem Cells</b></h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At OrthoRegen, our Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy combines four regenerative Orthopedic procedures including two types of stem cells (fat and bone), PRP, and Dextrose Prolotherapy. That’s a lot of reparative cells and growth factors to do the job of healing and repair! Most other regenerative medicine clinics  only utilize one or two, at best. By using all four, we’re able to offer our patients a better, more comprehensive treatment. It’s important to realize these cells are autologous. That means they come from your own body, and we’re simply returning them to the injured areas of your body for repair and regeneration. </span>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2588 size-full\" title=\"Stem Cell Doctor in Santa Monica\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Stem-Cell-Doctor-in-Santa-Monica.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell Doctor in Santa Monica\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" />\r\n<h3><b>Injecting the Stem Cells</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once we’ve drawn the regenerative cells, we centrifuge them and/or concentrate them. Through this process, we’re able to get a solution that has the highest possible amount of regenerative cells. Then, we inject them right into the injured or degenerated joint. The regenerative cells and growth factors get right to work boosting the healing cascade, so the joint can repair. Stem cells can regenerate all different kinds of joint structures: ligaments, meniscus, cartilage, and bone. So if joint structures are damaged, Regenerative Orthopedics has a great chance of repairing them.</span>\r\n<h4><b>Incorporating Platelet Rich Plasma</b></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We also use Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) as part of the Gold Standard in Stem Cell Therapy  to accelerate the healing. PRP uses plasma derived from your own blood, with a highly concentrated amount of blood platelets. What makes these blood platelets so special is that they can speed up the body’s healing process through their vast amount of growth factors.</span>\r\n<h5><b>Dextrose Prolotherapy for Stabilization</b></h5>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final Regenerative Orthopedic procedure we utilize is Dextrose Prolotherapy.  With <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolotherapy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Prolotherapy</a>, we inject a dextrose solution to trigger a mild inflammatory response in the body. This is the process the body naturally uses as part of the healing cascade. The tendons and ligaments are generally low in blood supply, and this technique stimulates the blood flow which provides these structures with the nutrition they need for healing. Dextrose Prolotherapy gives the body this boost to get the healing process into high gear. As part of Stem Cell therapy, the Dextrose Prolotherapy to the ligament and tendon structures on the outside of the joint repairs these injured joint structures so the joint can move normally, in a stable and normal fashion. </span>\r\n<h6><b>Contact Dr. Fields, Stem Cell Doctor in Santa Monica</b></h6>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For most patients, only a handful of treatments are required for repair.

Investing in your health pays off in many different ways: wellness, health stability, quality of life, energy, happiness and more.\r\n\r\nOnly you can decide what is fair and if it is worth the investment even if you instil pay out-of-pocket costs for your health care.\r\n\r\nWe will make every effort to instill the feeling that your time with us is worth it.\r\nWoman Paying\r\n\r\nAs a <strong>Fee for Service Office</strong> we request that the <u><strong>fee is paid in full at the time of service</strong></u>. \r\nWe accept credit cards, checks, or cash for payment of services.\r\nWe will provide you with a detailed invoice that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. <u><strong>We cannot guarantee insurance reimbursement.</strong></u>\r\n\r\nWe <u>do not subscribe to any insurance networks.</u> Insurance billing can be up to 40 percent of a medical office\'s overhead.

It also helps us keep our prices reasonable.\r\n\r\nRemember that health insurance is a contract between you and your insurance carrier.\r\n\r\nIf so inclined, you can contact your insurance carrier and ask them if they cover an MD office visit (codes: 99203 or 4; 99213 or 4.)

It was not until the era of World War II that any medical application was recognized. Initially the treatment was for gas poisoning and exposure to radioactivity. The word, ‘chelation’ is taken from the Greek word “chele”, meaning “claw”. Using this sense of the word, it means to grab or remove an unwanted substance from the body. Chelation is the term used to describe the removal of heavy metal toxicity from the body, as in lead poisoning, iron overload, and aluminum overload. Chelation therapy using EDTA, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a treatment for lead poisoning and heavy metal toxicity for more than forty years.\r\n\r\nThe theory behind Chelation Therapy is that certain drugs, chelating agents, function by making chemical bonds with heavy metal ions in the body, making these metals less chemically reactive. The resulting compounds, bonded agents and heavy metals, become water soluble, allowing them to enter the bloodstream and be excreted through urination. The chelating process can also remove beneficial metals and nutrients from the body, for example, zinc and calcium; these must be supplemented under the direction of a physician. Because these heavy metal compounds are excreted through the urine, kidney function must also be monitored. To ensure absolute safety, Chelation Therapy should be done by a qualified, licensed physician.\r\n\r\nChelation Therapy has been successfully used for iron overload from multiple transfusions, aluminum overload due to hemodialysis, copper toxicity due to Wilson’s disease and acute heavy metal toxicity. As part of any therapeutic program, lifestyle modifications are encouraged. These would include stress reduction, caffeine avoidance, alcohol limitation, smoking cessation, exercise, and nutritional counseling.\r\n\r\nAt Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Center, our goal is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain free life.

After all, who really wants all the expense, additional pain and recovery time that joint surgery always requires?\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Stem-Cell-Doctor-Peter-Fields-MD-DC.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell Doctor Peter Fields Md Dc\" width=\"176\" height=\"280\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1685\" />You may have tried physical therapy, chiropractic, cortisone shots, NSAIDS (like Ibuprofen or Naprosyn), or even a long list of home remedies...only to discover that if there was any relief from your pain at all, <strong>the relief was only temporary</strong>.\r\n\r\nAnd now, since none of those treatments provided a permanent solution to your pain, are you wondering if you finally have to have surgery so you can move freely without pain and live a normal life?\r\n\r\n<strong>My name is Dr. Peter Fields</strong>, and I am the leading expert in Regenerative Orthopedics and uniquely degreed as both an MD and a Doctor of Chiropractic. I’m here to tell you that in many cases, <strong>you do NOT need to have surgery</strong> to eliminate joint pain.\r\n\r\nMy treatments have helped thousands of people resume their normal lives without joint surgery, and there’s a very good chance that I can do the same for you.\r\n\r\nI am a specialist in a natural, nonsurgical method of assisting the body to heal injured tendons and ligaments called <strong>Prolotherapy</strong>, which helps your body make new cells to repair the damage in your joint.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Does My Knee/Hip/Back/Shoulder/Elbow/Neck STILL HURT After All This Time?</h4>\r\nMost joint pain is caused by weakened, torn or damaged tendons or ligaments. These tissues have very low blood flow, which inhibits their ability to repair themselves on their own. Making things even worse, they also have a high number of nerves, causing you pain.\r\n\r\nYou may know that the job of tendons and ligaments is to keep your joints aligned and moving properly. But when they are relaxed and weak...\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>The cartilage can degenerate and <strong>cause bone-on-bone friction...</strong></li>\r\n 	<li>Which causes <strong>arthritis-like</strong> pain...</li>\r\n 	<li>Then the nerves surrounding soft tissues become stretched and irritated...</li>\r\n 	<li>Causing you <strong>even more </strong><strong>pain</strong>.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nUnless you strengthen your tendons and ligaments and restore your joint to its proper, natural alignment and motion, <strong>you will continue to be in pain</strong>.\r\n\r\n<h4>How To Eliminate Chronic Joint Pain Without Surgery</h4>\r\nThis is why Prolotherapy is so effective. The treatment causes an increase in nutrient-rich blood cells to the affected area, causing your body to heal and strengthen injured or weakened ligaments, tendons or joints. <strong>Your own body does the work to grow healthy, strong and vibrant tissue</strong>.\r\n\r\nAs the tissue grows and strengthens, your joint begins to operate properly, and your pain (and the causes of your pain) dissipate. Many of my patients enjoy a <strong>permanent recovery</strong> from their symptoms and go back to living a normal life without joint pain.\r\n\r\nThat means you eliminate your pain with <strong>NO surgery, NO hospital stay</strong>, and <strong>NO general anesthesia</strong>. And isn’t that what you want most?\r\n\r\n<h4>Schedule Your Consultation Today</h4>\r\nLet’s get you on the path to recovery without joint surgery. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Contact my office today</a> or call me at <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a> and set up a consultation to find out if you are a candidate for Stem Cell.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n<iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Mc4Xo9RTwjw?rel=0&amp;wmode=opaque\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" width=\"100%\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe>\r\n<div class=\"text-wrap\">\r\n<p class=\"video-text\">Christa - Knee -&nbsp;<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">NEW!</span></p>\r\n<p>Christa, a former college athlete, had knee dislocation with pain and stiffness in her right knee.

These tissues have very low blood flow, which inhibits their ability to repair themselves on their own. Making things even worse, they also have a high number of nerves, causing you pain.\r\n\r\nYou may know that the job of tendons and ligaments is to keep your joints aligned and moving properly. But when they are relaxed and weak...\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>The cartilage can degenerate and <strong>cause bone-on-bone friction...</strong></li>\r\n 	<li>Which causes <strong>arthritis-like</strong> pain...</li>\r\n 	<li>Then the nerves surrounding soft tissues become stretched and irritated...</li>\r\n 	<li>Causing you <strong>even more </strong><strong>pain</strong>.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nUnless you strengthen your tendons and ligaments and restore your joint to its proper, natural alignment and motion, <strong>you will continue to be in pain</strong>.\r\n\r\n<h4>How To Eliminate Chronic Joint Pain Without Surgery</h4>\r\nThis is why Prolotherapy is so effective. The treatment causes an increase in nutrient-rich blood cells to the affected area, causing your body to heal and strengthen injured or weakened ligaments, tendons or joints. <strong>Your own body does the work to grow healthy, strong and vibrant tissue</strong>.\r\n\r\nAs the tissue grows and strengthens, your joint begins to operate properly, and your pain (and the causes of your pain) dissipate. Many of my patients enjoy a <strong>permanent recovery</strong> from their symptoms and go back to living a normal life without joint pain.\r\n\r\nThat means you eliminate your pain with <strong>NO surgery, NO hospital stay</strong>, and <strong>NO general anesthesia</strong>.

Fields, MD DC, is Stem Cell Doctor in Los Angeles and the founder of OrthoRegen. Dr. Fields is a leading expert in using Stem Cell Treatments for joints and Spine Regeneration. Dr. Fields help people avoid unnecessary orthopaedic surgeries whether full surgery or arthroscopic procedure. Dr.Fields is passionate about helping his clients eliminate pain for optimal long-term results, with the use of Stem Cell  Regenerative Treatments.\r\n\r\n<h4>What is a Stem Cell Doctor?</h4>\r\n\r\nA Stem Cell Doctor provides regenerative orthopaedics by offering non-surgical alternatives to joint and spine repair. Dr. Fields uses Stem Cell therapy to regenerate body tissue. Regenerative medicine is growing in popularity in the medical world as an alternative to invasive orthopaedic surgeries including joint replacement. The remarkable thing about Stem Cells is that when you inject them into a specific area of the body, they know what kinds of cells your body needs – for example,  cartilage cells or meniscus cells.\r\n\r\n<h4>What Conditions Can a Stem Cell Doctor Help?</h4>\r\n\r\nDr. Fields treats weakened, torn or damaged ligaments, as well as tendons, torn cartilage, muscle tears, menisci or labrums. Stem Cell treatment has also been effective in treating severe arthritis conditions.\r\n\r\n<strong>Dr. Fields has had great success in treating joint conditions with Stem Cell Therapy including:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n   <li>Bone-on-Bone</li>\r\n    <li>Severe Arthritis</li>\r\n    <li>Degenerated Joint</li>\r\n    <li>Torn, Worn or Missing Cartilage</li></ul>\r\n\r\nSee more about Stem Cell Treatment.\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Stem Cell Treatment?</h4>\r\n\r\nStem Cell treatment is an injection of stem cells into the joint or affected area to promote healing. This procedure is usually used for cases where you have been told to have their joint replaced, have bone-on-bone, advanced arthritis, severe meniscus or labral tear or other aggressive injuries.\r\n\r\nDr. Fields  Stem Cell technique one of the four Gold Standards Regenerative Orthopedics procedures to help you avoid invasive surgery.\r\n\r\nStem Cell Treatment, as used in regenerative orthopaedics, is a non-surgical healing treatment for healing soft tissue performed by a Stem Cell Doctor. Stem Cell treatment is the transplantation of autologous culture-expanded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in platelet rich-fibrin glue.\r\n\r\n<h4>Is Stem Cell Treatment Safe?</h4>\r\n\r\nStem Cell treatment is an extremely safe procedure. The risks are far less than those associated with surgery for your chronic joint pain or acute joint injuries. The risks are often also less than taking Ibuprofen (Motrin) for a lifetime to temporarily alleviate chronic pain. As with any procedure, there are risks and side effects which will vary depending on the area being treated. The Stem Cell Doctor will discuss these possibilities fully with patients during the pre-treatment consultation. This is only recommended after a very thorough history and physical exam.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for Stem Cell Treatment?</h4>\r\n\r\nIf you\'ve been told that you need to have joint replacement surgery -- whether that\'s shoulder replacement surgery, hip replacement surgery, knee replacement surgery (or any other joint), or if you\'ve been told that you need to have spine surgery due to bone-on-bone, arthritis or other conditions, you owe it to yourself to examine all other alternatives to surgery before going under the knife.\r\n\r\nSpine Surgery and Joint Replacement Surgery are very invasive procedures, and each comes with its own long list of reasons to avoid it at all costs: hospital stays, long recovery times, potential (dangerous) complications, and the need to have the procedure redone at some point.\r\n\r\nMake an appointment with our Stem Cell Doctor for an evaluation to see if you are a good candidate for Dr. Fields Gold Standard Stem Cell Treatment for - Spine and Joints.

To be engaged in everyday activities -- standing, walking, running, and even lying down -- you need to have normal knee function. But if you have chronic pain in your knee, you\'re prevented from doing all of that and more. Many conventional treatments include surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone and NSAIDS, but sometimes those treatments can hurt more than they help. That is why so many people turn to Prolotherapy for Chronic Knee Pain treatment.\r\n<h4>What Causes Knee Pain?</h4>\r\nThe knee begins at the lower end of the thigh bone (femur), which rotates on the upper end of the shin (tibia). The knee cap (patellae), slides in a groove on the end of the femur. Large ligaments attach the femur to the tibia, providing stability to the leg.\r\n\r\nCommon causes of knee pain are arthritis. If you are experiencing minor knee pain, clicking, giving way or ‘trick knee’, you may be feeling the first symptoms of arthritis. Osteoarthritis can begin in people as early as thirty years of age, and this may progress for years before symptoms appear. Acute knee pain, sudden and intense, is usually the result of an injury. Acute knee pain accompanied by significant inflammation and swelling, can be caused by gout or even infection. Chronic osteoarthritis can also be the cause of occasional acute knee pain.\r\n\r\nThe most common cause of long-lasting or chronic knee pain is osteoarthritis. Other forms of arthritis, rheumatoid, traumatic, and gouty, can also cause chronic pain in the knee joint. Pseudo gout, bursitis, tendonitis, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/sports-injuries-treatment-overview/\">sports injuries</a>, degenerative joint disease and chondromalacia patellae can be other causes of knee pain. As we age the smooth and resilient cartilage on the ends of our long bones, wears down, but this cartilage is needed for normal joint function.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Knee Pain</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not take care of the cause of the pain.\r\n\r\nPatients with pain in almost any joint in the body can now <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-pain-overview/\">treat their chronic pain with prolotherapy</a>. It just depends on the cause of your particular joint pain.\r\n\r\nMost of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Prolotherapy can <strong>regenerate these damaged tissues</strong> and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected knee ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n<h4>Are you a Candidate For Prolotherapy for Chronic Knee Pain?</h4>\r\nOur goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working, training and living a normal life during the recovery process. Prolotherapy for chronic knee pain is one of the few treatments that encourages movement post-treatment. Movement actually aids the healing process after <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a>. By contrast, surgery requires you to reduce activity after treatment.\r\n\r\nAre you a candidate for Prolotherapy for your chronic knee pain? Would you like a <strong>second opinion before you have irreversible knee surgery</strong>? The only way to know for sure is to get a consultation. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Contact Us today</a> for a consultation or call Dr. Fields at <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>','Chronic Knee Pain','','inherit','closed','closed','','486-revision-v1','','','2019-10-18 09:11:23','2019-10-18 09:11:23','',486,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/486-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2953,8,'2019-10-18 09:11:39','2019-10-18 09:11:39','<h4>Prolotherapy for Chronic Shoulder Pain</h4>\r\n<div class=\"youtube-click-div video_left\">\r\n[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=\"VkDlCmTq6dE\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" anchor=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Wilbur-Shoulder.jpg\" alt=\"Mark-Neck\"]\r\n<strong>Wilbur - Shoulder</strong>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\nIt\'s easy to take your own body for granted when your body is working well. But when a part of your body, such as your shoulder, begins to hurt or hurts for an extended period of time, you quickly realize how much you depend on your shoulders for reaching, raising your arm, lifting yourself up or even just opening a cupboard. That\'s why so many people with shoulder pain or injuries look to <strong>Prolotherapy for chronic shoulder pain</strong> treatment.\r\n\r\n<h4>Causes of Shoulder Pain</h4>\r\nThe muscles and joints of the shoulder allow it to move through a remarkable range of motion, making it one of the most mobile joints in the human body. The shoulder can rotate, be raised in front of and behind the torso and allow the arm to move a full 360°. This tremendous range of motion also makes the shoulder extremely unstable, and far more prone to dislocation and injury than other joints.\r\n\r\nBecause the rounded head or ball of the upper arm bone (humerus) is larger than the socket of the shoulder bone (scapula), this area is especially susceptible to injury. The shoulder joint consists of bones, muscles and ligaments that are all subject to stress and overuse.\r\n\r\nCommon causes of shoulder pain can be:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Tendonitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Bursitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Dislocation and attendant injury</li>\r\n 	<li>Impingement syndrome</li>\r\n 	<li>Rotator cuff tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Adhesive capsulated (frozen shoulder)</li>\r\n 	<li>Fracture</li>\r\n 	<li>Poor posture.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBut the <strong>most common cause of chronic pain in the shoulder is arthritis</strong>. This can take many forms such as: osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, traumatic, and gouty arthritis.\r\n\r\n<h4>Which Kind of Shoulder Pain Do You Have?</h4>\r\nIf you are experiencing pain from a rotator cuff injury, you will feel a dull aching pain, which worsens with movement.  A rotator cuff injury includes any type of irritation or damage to your <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/Articles/Prolo-News/Stem-Cell-Therapy-For-Rotator-Cuff-Injuries\">rotator cuff</a> muscles or tendons. Causes of a rotator cuff injury may include falling, lifting and repetitive arm activities — especially those done overhead.\r\n\r\n<strong>Shoulder tendonitis</strong> can produce symptoms including a slow onset of discomfort, pain in the upper third of your arm and difficulty sleeping on the side of that arm.\r\n\r\nRedness and swelling that is tender and warm to the touch can be caused by <strong>bursitis</strong>.\r\n\r\nMinor shoulder pain, ‘clicking’, ‘giving way’, or frozen shoulder, are symptoms of <strong>arthritis</strong>. Osteoarthritis can begin as early as thirty, but symptoms can appear later, as the condition progresses.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Shoulder Pain</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not remove the cause of the pain.\r\n\r\nDr. Fields may be able to <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-pain-overview/\">treat your chronic pain with prolotherapy</a>. It just depends on the cause of your particular pain.\r\n\r\nMost of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Prolotherapy can <strong>regenerate these damaged tissues</strong> and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected shoulder  ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are you a Candidate For Prolotherapy for Chronic Shoulder Pain?</h4>\r\nOur goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working, training and living a normal life during the recovery process. Prolotherapy for chronic shoulder pain is one of the few treatments that encourages movement post-treatment. Movement actually aids the healing process after <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a>. By contrast, shoulder surgery requires you reduce activity after treatment.\r\n\r\nAre you a candidate for Prolotherapy for your chronic shoulder pain? Would you like a <strong>second opinion before you have irreversible shoulder surgery</strong>? The only way to know for sure is to get a consultation. <a href=\"/contact/\">Contact Us today</a> for a consultation or call Dr. Fields at <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>','Chronic Shoulder Pain','','inherit','closed','closed','','511-revision-v1','','','2019-10-18 09:11:39','2019-10-18 09:11:39','',511,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/511-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(2954,8,'2019-10-18 09:12:41','2019-10-18 09:12:41','<img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1685\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Stem-Cell-Doctor-Peter-Fields-MD-DC.jpg\" alt=\"Stem Cell Doctor Peter Fields Md Dc\" width=\"218\" height=\"350\" />\r\n<h4>Prolotherapy Doctor</h4>\r\nPeter A. Fields, MD DC, is a Los Angeles Prolotherapy Doctor and the founder of OrthoRegen. Dr. Fields is a leading expert in using Cellular Regeneration (aka Cellular Prolotherapy) treatments to resolve painful conditions and sports injuries to help people avoid full joint replacement. He treats patients from around the US and the world; from non-athletes to weekend warriors to competitive athletes and professional athletes. Dr. Fields helps people avoid unnecessary orthopaedic surgeries whether arthroscopic or conventional fully invasive surgery.\r\n<h4>What is a Prolotherapy Doctor?</h4>\r\nA Prolotherapy Doctor provides regenerative orthopedics by offering non-surgical alternatives to joint and spine repair. Dr. Fields offers prolotherapy treatments to relieve pain by treating the underlying conditions. He stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal and repair by encouraging the growth of new tendon fibers and ligaments.\r\n<h4>What is Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\nProlotherapy treatment is a natural non-surgical method of assisting the body to heal weakened or injured joints, tendons and ligaments. A Prolotherapy Doctor injects the weakened areas with a solution that stimulates the growth of healthy, strong tissues. As the ligaments and tendons grow stronger and vibrant, the motion is restored and the pain is alleviated.\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Treatment Works</h4>\r\nOur Prolotherapy treatment is an innovative treatment that stimulates the immune system to repair damaged tissue. ”Prolo” comes from the word “proliferate.” Prolotherapy then describes the therapy which utilizes proliferation of fibroblastic cells that grow the ligaments and tendons. By proliferation of the fibroblasts, new, strong, collagen tissue is formed. This new tissue is what is needed to repair ligament and tendon sprains and injuries. Receive treatment from our Prolotherapy Doctor for your injuries with comprehensive Prolotherapy Treatment at <a href=\"https://orthoregen.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OrthoRegen</a>\r\n<h4>Is Treatment by a Prolotherapy Doctor safe?</h4>\r\nProlotherapy is an extremely safe procedure. The risks are far less than those associated with surgery for your chronic joint pain or acute joint injuries. The risks are often also less than taking Ibuprofen ( Motrin) for a lifetime to temporarily alleviate chronic pain. As with any procedure, there are risks and side effects which will vary depending on the area being treated. Dr. Fields will discuss these possibilities fully with patients during the pre-treatment consultation.\r\n<h4>What Conditions Can Dr. Fields Help You With:</h4>\r\nDr. Fields has had great success in treating his patients with hundreds of different injuries, conditions, and complaints, including:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Chronic Conditions like…</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Arthritis Pain</li>\r\n 	<li>Sciatica Pain</li>\r\n 	<li>Pinched Nerves</li>\r\n 	<li>Athletic Injuries</li>\r\n 	<li>Tension Headaches</li>\r\n 	<li>Migraine Headaches</li>\r\n 	<li>Herniated Discs</li>\r\n 	<li>Degenerative Discs</li>\r\n 	<li>TMJ syndrome</li>\r\n 	<li>Weak Joints</li>\r\n 	<li>Sore Muscles</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Knee Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>ACL Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Runners\' Knee</li>\r\n 	<li>Radial Meniscus Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Knee Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Hip Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Torn Labrum</li>\r\n 	<li>Acetabular labrum Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Labral Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Hip Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Neck Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Whiplash</li>\r\n 	<li>TMJ Syndrome</li>\r\n 	<li>Migraine Headaches</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Neck Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Shoulder Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Labral Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Rotator Cuff Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Swimmers Shoulder</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Shoulder Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Back Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Herniated discs</li>\r\n 	<li>Sacroiliac injury</li>\r\n 	<li>Lower back pain</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Back Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Elbow Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Tendonitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Tennis elbow</li>\r\n 	<li>Golfers elbow</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Elbow Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Foot and Ankle Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Achilles tendinopathy</li>\r\n 	<li>Ankle Sprains</li>\r\n 	<li>Plantar Fasciitis</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Foot Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n 	<li><strong>Hand Injuries:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Carpal tunnel</li>\r\n 	<li>Overuse injury</li>\r\n 	<li>Finger pain</li>\r\n 	<li>See a complete list of Hand Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\nCall <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a> today for a free phone consultation with our Prolotherapy Doctor to see if Prolotherapy treatment can get you pain-free and ‘back in the game’ or help you resume your normal lifestyle.

Fields, MD DC, is a PRP Doctor in Los Angeles and the founder of OrthoRegen. Dr. Fields is a leading expert in using (PRP) Platelet Rich Plasma therapy to resolve painful conditions and sports injuries to help people avoid full joint replacement. He treats patients from around the US and the world. Dr. Fields help people avoid unnecessary orthopedic surgeries whether arthroscopic or full surgery.\r\n<h4>What is a PRP Doctor?</h4>\r\nA PRP Doctor provides regenerative orthopedics by offering non-surgical alternatives to joint and spine repair. PRP Doctors like Dr. Fields use Platelet Rich Plasma Injections that help accelerate the normal healing process. Dr.Fields is passionate about helping his clients eliminate pain for optimal long-term results, with the use of PRP Regenerative Treatments.\r\n<h4>What Does PRP stand for?</h4>\r\nPRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma. Plasma is the fluid portion of blood which contains cellular components such as platelets, white blood cells, and red cells. The Harvest method that Dr. Fields uses concentrates the platelets 7-10 times of what is generally found in blood. Other systems concentrate them, but to a lesser extent.\r\n<h4>What is PRP Treatment?</h4>\r\nPRP treatment, as used in regenerative orthopedics, is a non-surgical healing treatment for healing soft tissue performed by a PRP Doctor. Dr. Fields makes precise injections of your own concentrated blood (PRP) into the affected areas to promote healing of musculoskeletal problems. Blood platelets contain potent growth factors necessary to begin tissue repair and regeneration at the injury site.\r\n<h4>Is PRP Treatment Safe?</h4>\r\nPRP treatment is an extremely safe procedure. The risks are far less than those associated with surgery for your chronic joint pain or acute joint injuries. The risks are often also less than taking Ibuprofen (Motrin) for a lifetime to temporarily alleviate chronic pain. As with any procedure, there are risks and side effects which will vary depending on the area being treated. Dr. Fields will discuss these possibilities thoroughly with patients during the pre-treatment consultation.\r\nWhat Does a PRP Doctor Treat?\r\n\r\nWeakened torn or damaged ligaments, tendons, muscle tears, menisci or labrums are the most common soft tissue structures that Dr. Fields treats. PRP has also been effective in treating arthritis, though more severe cases get better results with Dr. Fields’ Stem Cell treatments.\r\n\r\nDr. Fields has had great success in treating chronic pain and sports injuries including:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Knee Injuries:</strong> ACL, MCL LCL, Meniscus, Arthritis, Kneecap Instability</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Knee Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Elbow Injuries:</strong> Tennis Elbow, Medial Epicondylitis,Tendonitis</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Elbow Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Shoulder Injuries:</strong> Rotator Cuff Tears, Labrum Tears, Tenositis</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Shoulder Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Back Injuries:</strong> Arthritis, Facet Joints, Sacro-Iliac dysfunction</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Back Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Hip Injuries:</strong> Tenositis, Bursitis,Labrum</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Hip Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Foot/Ankle Injuries:</strong> Ankle Sprains, Arthritis, Achilles Dysfunction, Tendonitis</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Foot/Ankle Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><strong>Hand/Wrist/ Injuries:</strong> Finger/Joint Tendinitis, Ligament Tears, Arthritis, Carpal tunnel</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSee a complete list of Hand/Wrist Injuries Treated with Prolotherapy here.\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for Prolotherapy Treatment?</h4>\r\nCall <a href=\"tel:+[phone_raw]\">[phone]</a> today for a free phone consultation with our Prolotherapy Doctor to see if Prolotherapy treatment can get you pain-free and ‘back in the game’ or help you resume your normal lifestyle.

Get back in the game with Prolotherapy and Dr. Peter A. Fields, The Athletic Doc®. At OrthoRegen we offer innovative, non-surgical treatments for your sports injury or chronic pain problems. Without unnecessary medication, prescriptions, cortisone shots or surgery, Prolotherapy can regenerate damaged or worn ligaments and strengthen weakened tendons. The most beneficial aspect of our non-surgical sports injuries treatment is that you can continue to train while you receive Prolotherapy treatments. We treat athletes of all skill and age levels: high school to college; amateur to professional athletes.\r\n\r\n<h4>How Can Prolotherapy Help Your Sports Injury?</h4>\r\nProlotherapy is an innovative treatment that stimulates the immune system to repair damaged tissue.”Prolo” comes from the word proliferate. Prolotherapy then, describes the therapy which utilizes proliferation of fibroblastic cells that grow the ligaments and tendons. By proliferation of the fibroblasts, new, strong, collagen tissue is formed. This new tissue is what is needed to repair ligament and tendon sprains and other sports injuries. Receive treatment for your sports injuries with comprehensive Prolotherapy at OrthoRegen.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are You Suffering from a Sports Injury?</h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/Conditions/Sports-Injuries/Knee-Injury-Treatment\">K</a><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/Conditions/Sports-Injuries/Knee-Injury-Treatment\">nee Pain</a></li>\r\n 	<li> ACL Tear</li>\r\n 	<li>Torn Meniscus</li>\r\n 	<li><a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/Conditions/Chronic-Pain/Chronic-Neck-Pain\">Neck pain</a></li>\r\n 	<li>Back Pain</li>\r\n 	<li>Shin Splints</li>\r\n 	<li>Plantar Fasciitis</li>\r\n 	<li>Hamstring Strain</li>\r\n 	<li>IT Band Injury</li>\r\n 	<li>Turf Toe</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong><em> Prolotherapy Sports Injuries Treatment can help you get back in the game – and get back quickly!</em></strong>\r\n\r\n<h4>Prolotherapy Doctor Treats Sports Injuries Without Surgery</h4>\r\nReceive treatment for your sports injuries by Ironman Triathlete Dr. Peter A. Fields. For over 25 years, Dr. Fields has been active in the sport of Triathlon. It is his experience as an athlete that allows him to understand the potential for injury and the demands of sports on the physical body. He also understands the passion athletes have to get back to training and competition, and their need to recover quickly from injury, because he has been there. In November 2012, Dr. Fields completed his second Ironman Triathlon, beating his 2011 time by better than 14 minutes. Dr. Fields is known as The Athletic Doc®. Wouldn’t you want to be treated by a sports doctor who is also an athlete?\r\n\r\nOur medical team finds that treating athletes is very rewarding. We can utilize a comprehensive health approach to help you reach your peak physical performance. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> allows you to get back to training within a couple of days and does not involve periods of long recovery. Prolotherapy involves the injection of natural substances at the exact site of an injury. This stimulates the immune system to repair the sports injury. Areas often injured through sports related activities—ligaments, tendons, menisci, muscles, growth plates, joint capsules and cartilage are stimulated to heal. Anesthetics are also used to minimize any unpleasant pain.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate for Non- Surgical Sports Injuries Treatment?</h4>\r\nDr. Fields and our staff at OrthoRegen offer traditional Dextrose Prolotherapy knee treatment, as well as <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/prp-treatment/\">PRP Prolotherapy</a> and <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/stem-cell-treatment/\">Stem Cell Prolotherapy</a>.

The knee joint is one of the most crucial joints in the body. Normal knee function is vital to involvement in everyday activities.\r\n\r\nThe knee joint is in the middle of the leg and connects upwards to the femur (thigh bone) and downwards to the tibia (shin bone). The patella or kneecap sits to the front of these bones. The femur and tibia are connected by the four main ligaments at the knee, the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments (ACL and PCL, found deep within the knee joint) and the Medial (MCL) and Lateral (LCL) Collateral Ligaments (on either side of the joint).\r\n\r\nThere are also two forms of cartilage in the knee. Articular cartilage, which protects the ends of both bones and the back of the patella allowing for smooth movement, and the cartilage meniscus which is two semicircular discs providing cushioning and support for the bones. The knee is extremely vulnerable to injury in one or a combination of these elements. In the case of knee injury, we recommend our <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> knee treatment to strengthen and repair damaged tissue, ligaments and tendons.\r\n\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Knee Treatment Works</h4>\r\nOur Prolotherapy knee treatment is an innovative treatment that stimulates the immune system to repair damaged tissue. ”Prolo” comes from the word proliferate. Prolotherapy then describes the therapy which utilizes proliferation of fibroblastic cells that grow the ligaments and tendons.

Most blows to the elbow are not strong enough to fracture it. It is usually the ligaments and tendons that are injured. Depending on the injury or condition, <strong>prolotherapy for chronic elbow pain </strong>may give you permanent relief.\r\n\r\n<strong>Ligament Injuries in the Elbow</strong>\r\n\r\nThese injuries may involve a tear in the <strong>annular ligament</strong>, which wraps around the radius bone to the humerus bone. These ligaments take all the strain when the lower arm turns. Twisting a screwdriver, turning a key or hitting a baseball are all activities that use the annular ligament.\r\n\r\n<strong>Tendon Injuries in the Elbow</strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-faq/\">Elbow pain</a> can also involve tendon injury, as in the cases of tennis or golfer’s elbow. In tennis elbow it is the <strong>extensor tendons</strong> which move the wrist up, that can be damaged. In golfer’s elbow it is the <strong>flexor tendons</strong>, that move the wrist down, that get injured. It is not rare for us to see elbow and hand pain that has been misdiagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome involves the entrapment of the median nerve where the wrist and hand connect.\r\n\r\nOther causes of elbow pain include tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, elbow strains and infections.\r\nCommon symptoms of elbow injury are: pain, swelling, numbness, tingling in the arm, weakness, and changes in temperature or colour of the skin. A patient may not remember having a specific injury, especially if symptoms began gradually or during usual activities.\r\n\r\n<strong>The Most Common Elbow Injuries </strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>But eighty percent of chronic elbow pain is caused by spraining the annular ligament</strong>, which attaches the radius bone to the ulnar bone. Because of the heavy demands placed on the fingers and hands by performing repetitive tasks, the annular ligament is stressed daily and could become a source of chronic pain. Another source of chronic elbow pain is strain of the ulnar collateral ligament. This ligament supports the inside of the elbow and holds the ulnar bone to the humerus.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Elbow Pain</h4>\r\nConventional medical treatments may relieve the symptoms of elbow pain, but they do not remedy the underlying cause of the problem. That\'s why many patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not remove the cause of the pain.\r\n\r\nDr. Fields may be able to <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-pain-overview/\">treat your chronic pain with prolotherapy</a>. It just depends on the cause of your particular pain.\r\n\r\nMost of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Prolotherapy can <strong>regenerate these damaged tissues</strong> and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain.\r\n\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected shoulder  ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n<h4>Are you a Candidate For Prolotherapy for Chronic Elbow Pain?</h4>\r\nOur goal at OrthoRegen is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working, training and living a normal life during the recovery process. Prolotherapy for chronic elbow pain is one of the few treatments that encourages movement post-treatment. Movement actually aids the healing process after <a title=\"Prolotherapy\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a>. By contrast, elbow surgery requires you reduce activity after treatment.\r\n\r\nWould you like a <strong>second opinion before you have irreversible elbow surgery</strong>? Are you a candidate for Prolotherapy for your chronic elbow pain?

Repetitive strain from repeat motion and overuse which may transpire in sports or particular jobs and activities can lead to these injuries.  Injuries, such as Runner’s Knee, Rotator Cuff Tendonitis, and Tennis Elbow are examples of overuse injuries, which are progressive activity-related injuries linked to repetitive stress that is placed on the tendon, ligament or other joint structure. Individuals with overuse injuries may try to manage their pain on their own for a while. They may attempt to stabilize the knee, shoulder or elbow with a brace, or calm the pain with over-the-counter medications, or even rest the joint a bit in order to find enough relief to be able to play in the next game, continue to work, or participate in their upcoming event.\n\n&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Common Causes of Overuse Injuries</strong>\n\nDoing too much of the same activity strains the tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissue structures. Training error and improper technique may add to the possibility of an overuse injury. Using poor or improper form during training exercises, while running on uneven ground, when swinging a tennis racket, or even with painting walls, can overload the muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and cause an overuse injury. In cases of Runners Knee, for example, the repeated stress from the force of hitting hard surfaces while contracting the leg muscle when running, again and again, results in a weakening of the tendon and ligaments. In overuse injuries, many may think their tendon or ligaments are just inflamed, and although the injury may begin with inflammation, when left untreated, this overuse injury overloads the tendon and ligaments, resulting in degeneration or even in a tear. Many cases of overuse injuries become chronic with instances of recurrence.\n\n&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Symptoms of Overuse Injuries</strong>\n\nIn the beginning, pain and tenderness are noted in the affected area after physical activity. As the problem progresses, the pain and discomfort occur during activity. Of course, symptoms vary with the various joints and from person to person, but as the condition advances, swelling and pain will restrict the ability to perform sports or particular activities. Eventually, the pain and symptoms will persist, even at rest.\n\n&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Treating Overuse Injuries</strong>\n\nChasing and suppressing symptoms with bracing and pain medications may keep the swelling down and provide momentary pain relief, but a knee sleeve, for example, will only give a false sense of security while only temporarily helping the sufferer to function. The debilitating pain, however, will keep the individual and athlete searching for a cure.  Is surgery the answer? Surgery prolongs the athlete’s return to sport.<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\"><sup>[i]</sup></a>  Fortunately, there are non-surgical options! Here’s what doctors in New York say about the overuse injury patellar tendonitis, “Due to its common refractory response (difficulty in treating) to conservative treatment, a variety of new treatments have emerged recently that include...<strong>Prolotherapy</strong>, <strong>platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP)</strong><strong>,</strong> arthroscopic surgical procedures, surgical resection of the inferior patellar pole (cutting away tendon tissue at the kneecap)…”<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\"><sup>[ii]</sup></a>\n\n&nbsp;\n\nAt OrthoRegen, the regenerative treatments we use for painful joint conditions include Platelet Rich Plasma and Prolotherapy. But the researchers listed surgery too! Why do surgery if PRP is good enough? And is it good enough to effectively treat overuse conditions? Studies done in Europe demonstrate the effectiveness of Platelet Rich Plasma for those with overuse conditions of the knee, and its ability to improve pain symptoms and functionality, saying, “The most important finding in our meta-analysis is that PRP injections are statistically better than the control group at longer term follow-up suggesting that PRP is an effective and worthwhile treatment for Patellar Tendinopathy. <a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]</a><sup>,<a href=\"#_edn4\" name=\"_ednref4\">[iv]</a></sup> A 2018 study agreed that multiple PRP injections offer the most satisfactory results.<a href=\"#_edn5\" name=\"_ednref5\">[v]</a> Athletes are looking to non-surgical therapies such as Stem Cell Treatments, Platelet Rich Plasma or Prolotherapy treatments, because they are showing improved outcomes in those with tendon and ligament conditions like Runner’s Knee.<a href=\"#_edn6\" name=\"_ednref6\">[vi]</a>\n\n<strong>Treating Overuse Injuries with Regenerative Orthopedics</strong>\n\nAt OrthoRegen, using regenerative therapies like Stem Cell Therapy, Platelet Rich Plasma, and Prolotherapy is what we do. By treating overuse injuries with Regenerative Orthopedics, athletes can get back to their sport, and individuals can return to the activities they love. We see substantial, consistent improvements in pain outcomes when treating those with overuse injuries.  <strong>Regenerative Orthopedics can treat various joint disorders including problems of the tendons, because the</strong><strong> injections directed at the weakened tendons and involved ligaments</strong> stimulate a string of healing events, which include an increase of blood supply, an influx of reparative cells, and the deposition of collagen cells. When the collagen matures, it will strengthen and tighten the damaged tendons and ligaments.\n\n&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Why would we treat the ligaments too? </strong>The ongoing and recurring joint pain in overuse conditions is rooted in joint instability. Patients with overuse injuries often have concurrent weakness in the ligaments of the joint. These ligaments play a huge role in stabilizing the joint, and when weak, will put more strain on the tendon and other joint structures. The problem of weak ligaments needs to be addressed in treatment. Therefore, we treat the joint comprehensively, and make sure we treat any injured and weakened ligaments as well, in order to achieve the best results. Comprehensive treatment will result in repair and healing of the entire joint, tightening of the ligaments, and strengthening and repair of the tendons, so the joint and all of its structures function normally, and the athletes and individuals who were sidelined by overuse injuries can return confidently and pain-free to the sport and activities they love.\n\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]</a> Cook J L, Khan KM, Harcourt PR, <em>et al. </em><a href=\"http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/31/4/332.short\">A cross sectional study of 100 athletes with jumper’s knee managed conservatively and surgically.</a> The Victorian Institute of Sport Tendon Study Group.

The treatment may only result in temporary relief, and is frequently used to delay the eventual joint replacement. But did you know this commonly used treatment option may not be as safe as you think? Recently released evidence in the medical journal “Radiology,” describes the negative risks of using cortisone injections. <a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]</a>Although prior studies have been conducted showing cortisone to have a negative impact on joints, this most recent article helps to bring awareness to the adverse effects cortisone injections have on the joint.\n<h2>What Happens When Cortisone Is Injected Into the Joint?</h2>\nCortisone appears to be toxic to cartilage. When cortisone is injected into the joint it actually boosts the progression of the destruction of cartilage and therefore accelerates arthritis. Oftentimes, cortisone is injected into joints for relief of arthritis pain and the symptoms associated with it. It would seem contrary then, to use a “treatment” that makes arthritis worse, in an effort to treat it! Right? Cortisone destroys cartilage, boosts cell death in the joint, and increases bone loss.\n<h2>Behind the Use of Cortisone Injections</h2>\nArthritis is a very common disease of the joint that limits activity and quality of life, and often results in disability. In an effort to treat arthritis, physicians initially approach pain and symptom control in a non-surgical fashion, generally attempting to delay the eventual joint replacement. Additionally, older or sicker patients may not be able to tolerate surgery, and in those cases, more conservative treatments are needed and recommended. Cortisone injections may provide some patients with days of relief, while others may get months of pain and symptom control with cortisone injections into the joint. For this reason it is a commonly performed treatment, as it reduces the inflammation and swelling of arthritis.\n\nPhysicians have known there were risks involved in the use of cortisone injections into joints! Even though the study mentioned in this article is a new study, there have been many previous studies demonstrating the risks and the damage cortisone does to the joint structures. That is why, when your physician discusses cortisone injection with you, it is recommended that the injections not be given more than once every three months. Hopefully, the reason behind the limits is explained as well, since it is important for the patient to be educated on the risks of treatment with cortisone injections.\n<h2>Cortisone Injections May Do More Harm than Good</h2>\nThe researchers in this most recent study looked at the effect of cortisone injected into knees and hips, and found that the cortisone boosted the progression of arthritis and <strong>accelerated the need for joint replacement surgery.</strong> The researchers looked at 459 patients who received one to three cortisone injections into the hip or knee in 2018. Almost a tenth of these developed complications such as cartilage loss, stress fractures, bone loss, and joint destruction in the two to fifteen months following the injections. The authors note that this percentage may be an understatement because half of the participants did not receive follow-up imaging tests to assess the health of their joints.\n\n<strong>In summary, the studies are showing that cortisone injections accelerate arthritis and can be detrimental in the long-run</strong>. But even with this knowledge, cortisone injections continue to be recommended frequently for joint pain. Millions of Americans suffer from arthritis and its symptoms of pain, swelling, cartilage loss, and bone destruction. Sufferers want relief, and the injections often give relief. They are also covered by insurance.\n\nGiven that cortisone injections are being given more and more to treat pain in patients with joint arthritis, what is the alternative, especially since many sufferers are at the point where they need relief to just live day to day.\n\nThat’s where Regenerative Orthopedics comes in!  <strong>Treatments like Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy work to actually repair the arthritic joint.</strong> These treatments provide pain relief, but they don’t do so at the expense of the joint. They actually heal the joint, strengthen the structures of the joints, and even boost growth of cartilage. Regenerative Orthopedics <strong>regenerates the joint</strong> rather than causing degeneration like what occurs with cortisone injections.\n\nThere is also minimal downtime needed to receive these regenerative treatments, so you can continue to exercise, and move the joint, which is essential for a healthy joint. Exercise helps ease pain, improve mobility and strengthen muscles around the joints.\n\nRegenerative Orthopedics is the treatment of choice to achieve the pain relief you desire, while returning function to your painful arthritic joint, and helping you to once again enjoy the activities you desire to do.\n<h1><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\"><strong>[i]</strong></a> Kompel AJ, Roemer FW, Murakami AM, Dias LE, Crema MD, Guermazi A.  Intra-articular Corticosteroid Injections in the Hip and Knee: Perhaps Not as Safe as We Thought?

Cortisone destroys cartilage, boosts cell death in the joint, and increases bone loss.\r\n<h2>Behind the Use of Cortisone Injections</h2>\r\nArthritis is a very common disease of the joint that limits activity and quality of life, and often results in disability. In an effort to treat arthritis, physicians initially approach pain and symptom control in a non-surgical fashion, generally attempting to delay the eventual joint replacement. Additionally, older or sicker patients may not be able to tolerate surgery, and in those cases, more conservative treatments are needed and recommended. Cortisone injections may provide some patients with days of relief, while others may get months of pain and symptom control with cortisone injections into the joint. For this reason it is a commonly performed treatment, as it reduces the inflammation and swelling of arthritis.\r\n\r\nPhysicians have known there were risks involved in the use of cortisone injections into joints! Even though the study mentioned in this article is a new study, there have been many previous studies demonstrating the risks and the damage cortisone does to the joint structures. That is why, when your physician discusses cortisone injection with you, it is recommended that the injections not be given more than once every three months. Hopefully, the reason behind the limits is explained as well, since it is important for the patient to be educated on the risks of treatment with cortisone injections.\r\n<h2>Cortisone Injections May Do More Harm than Good</h2>\r\nThe researchers in this most recent study looked at the effect of cortisone injected into knees and hips, and found that the cortisone boosted the progression of arthritis and <strong>accelerated the need for joint replacement surgery.</strong> The researchers looked at 459 patients who received one to three cortisone injections into the hip or knee in 2018. Almost a tenth of these developed complications such as cartilage loss, stress fractures, bone loss, and joint destruction in the two to fifteen months following the injections. The authors note that this percentage may be an understatement because half of the participants did not receive follow-up imaging tests to assess the health of their joints.\r\n\r\n<strong>In summary, the studies are showing that cortisone injections accelerate arthritis and can be detrimental in the long-run</strong>. But even with this knowledge, cortisone injections continue to be recommended frequently for joint pain. Millions of Americans suffer from arthritis and its symptoms of pain, swelling, cartilage loss, and bone destruction. Sufferers want relief, and the injections often give relief. They are also covered by insurance.\r\n\r\nGiven that cortisone injections are being given more and more to treat pain in patients with joint arthritis, what is the alternative, especially since many sufferers are at the point where they need relief to just live day to day.\r\n\r\nThat’s where Regenerative Orthopedics comes in!  <strong>Treatments like Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy work to actually repair the arthritic joint.</strong> These treatments provide pain relief, but they don’t do so at the expense of the joint. They actually heal the joint, strengthen the structures of the joints, and even boost growth of cartilage. Regenerative Orthopedics <strong>regenerates the joint</strong> rather than causing degeneration like what occurs with cortisone injections.\r\n\r\nThere is also minimal downtime needed to receive these regenerative treatments, so you can continue to exercise, and move the joint, which is essential for a healthy joint. Exercise helps ease pain, improve mobility and strengthen muscles around the joints.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics is the treatment of choice to achieve the pain relief you desire, while returning function to your painful arthritic joint, and helping you to once again enjoy the activities you desire to do.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\"><strong>[i]</strong></a> Kompel AJ, Roemer FW, Murakami AM, Dias LE, Crema MD, Guermazi A.  Intra-articular Corticosteroid Injections in the Hip and Knee: Perhaps Not as Safe as We Thought?

It doesn’t matter if you are 15 or 95. Because if you love sports or enjoy an active lifestyle, you don’t want to have to stop because of an injury. And Regenerative Orthopedics is the ideal sports medicine to get you back in the game!\r\n\r\nSports injuries from ligament tears, meniscus injuries, tendon injuries, wear and tear, and other soft tissue injuries are common reasons people seek care. In fact, over 90% of athletic injuries involve stretched, torn or weakened soft tissue of some sort. Sports injuries, whether of the ankle, knee, shoulder, hip, or back occur when the repetitive strain of the athletic activity is too much for a particular ligament, tendon, or muscle to perform.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3792\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"395\"]<img class=\" wp-image-3792\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/joint-injury.do-what-you-love-Copy-2-1-500x500.png\" alt=\"Joint Injury.do What You Love Copy 2 (1)\" width=\"395\" height=\"395\" /> <strong>Keep Doing What You Love</strong>[/caption]\r\n<h2>How Do Injuries Occur to the Meniscus, Tendons, and Other Soft Tissue?</h2>\r\nInjury to these soft tissue structures can transpire from a sudden traumatic injury or as a result of accumulative damage over the years. Many are considered an acute exacerbation of a chronic injury. Whether you run 3, 6, 10 miles or even a marathon, ride your bike, participate in martial arts, lift weights, play golf or tennis, the repetitive impact from athletic events can be enough to damage the various soft tissue structures.\r\n\r\nOver time the joint degenerates as these non-healed soft tissue injuries destabilize the joint. And Regenerative Orthopedics is an ideal sports medicine because it is extremely effective at healing and repairing these soft tissue injuries.\r\n<h2>Why Use Regenerative Orthopedics as the Ideal Sports Medicine?</h2>\r\nDoesn’t the body just heal on its own? Unfortunately, not all of these structures heal well on their own. Soft tissue structures like the cartilage, discs, labrum, ligaments, menisci and tendons are whiter in nature. That means they have a poor blood supply.\r\n\r\nBlood is what nourishes the joint. And therefore, the blood poor structures have a compromised healing ability after injury. These structures aren’t like muscles. You’ve probably noticed when you pull a muscle, or sustain a muscle injury, that in time, it will get better. Why is that? The muscles are red. That means they have a good blood supply and repair more easily. Regenerative Orthopedics helps the body to get more blood to these blood poor structures so they can heal more efficiently.\r\n<h2>The Role of the Ligaments</h2>\r\nIn order for the joint to function like it should, all of the joint structures, including the white tissue structures, the muscles and the bony structures need to be well. They all work together to stabilize the joint and keep it working optimally. But the ligaments are the primary stabilizing structures.\r\n\r\nLigaments are key at maintaining joint health. Unfortunately, ligament injuries are one of the most common causes of pain from sport-related injuries. And they are white tissue structures. Plus, injured ligaments generate pain. They are a sensory organ with free nerve endings. The weakness that occurs after ligament injury to the knee, for example, may give rise to Runner’s knee, meniscal tears, chondromalacia patella, bone spurs and eventually to arthritis.\r\n\r\nWhen the ligament is injured, the harmony between the soft tissue, muscles and bony structures is disrupted. This interferes with mobility and joint stability. What results is an unstable joint, one that moves abnormally, and functions poorly. That results in more and more damage. When the ligaments are left untreated, the body will try to stabilize the joint by causing ongoing muscle spasms, and joint swelling. And eventually, bone spurs will form and arthritis will develop. A cycle of persistent pain is the result.\r\n<h3>Injury and the Path to Arthritis</h3>\r\nInvolvement in athletics provides us with physical, emotional and mental well-being. However, when we’re faced with injury, we often set into motion the cycle of instability in the joint as mentioned above. This cycle also leads to the eventual development of arthritis. The path to arthritis can occur within a few years with severe injuries, or take decades to develop when the injury is less severe.\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"en\">Although progressive cartilage loss with its inhibition of joint motion plays a central role in arthritis, injury to other soft tissue structures actually initiates the change in equilibrium that leads to this breakdown of cartilage and the path to arthritis. </span>Athletes of all ages desire to be as fit as when in the prime of their athletic careers. But the pain and symptoms from non-healed sports injuries interferes with that dream!\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics is the ideal sports medicine because in gets the athlete back on the path of healing and to reaching their goals and dreams.\r\n<h2>Treatment for Sports Injuries</h2>\r\nStandard treatments for sports injuries usually only involve the management of symptoms. Some of these treatments include pain medications, cortisone/steroid injections, physical therapy, massage and other therapies to provide pain relief. These treatments may work to relieve pain temporarily or momentarily reduce the pain and inflammation.\r\n\r\nBut when the athlete turns off the pain signal with medication use, while the joint is still injured, and continues to play and remain active on an injured joint, further damage ensues. It is important to realize that these treatment modalities do not repair soft tissue injuries, such as tendon, ligament, and meniscus tears, nor do they regenerate cartilage.\r\n<h3>Regenerative Orthopedics Is the Ideal Sports Medicine to Stimulate the Body to Repair</h3>\r\nThe key to keeping joints strong is to stimulate the area to heal. Regenerative Orthopedics does just that. And it offers hope to those suffering from sports injuries. They are the ideal treatment for sports injuries because they get you back to doing what you love.\r\n\r\nPlus, these therapies are non-surgical. <em><strong>The treatments regenerate and repair the damaged ligaments and soft tissues. And they allow the athlete to continue with their desired activity</strong></em>. Non-surgical regenerative therapies, including Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy, stimulate the natural regenerative processes in and around the joint. And they facilitate the restoration of the degenerated soft tissue to a healthy state. The result is improved joint support and function, and reduced pain and symptoms.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics involves the injection of natural solutions. And sometimes, depending on the nature of injury or degeneration, will also include injections of an autologous preparation, from a person’s own plasma (blood), fat or bone marrow, injected directly into the damaged joint to accelerate the healing process.\r\n<h2>Sports injuries do not need to put an end to the enjoyment of sports activities. There is an effective option for repair!</h2>\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics <span lang=\"en\">is a great non-surgical treatment ideal for</span> offering not only pain relief from sports injuries, but healing and reparation at the source of the injury. This regeneration and repair enables the athlete of all ages to speedily return to the sport or activity they love with minimal lifestyle interruption.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"/articles/regenerative-orthopedics/\"> Click here for more articles</a>','Regenerative Orthopedics: The Ideal Sports Medicine','','publish','open','closed','','why-regenerative-orthopedics-are-the-ideal-sports-medicine','','','2020-08-25 03:01:52','2020-08-25 03:01:52','',0,'https://www.drfields.com/?p=3134',0,'post','',0),(3135,8,'2019-11-01 05:32:28','2019-11-01 05:32:28','<h2>Why Regenerative Orthopedics Are the Ideal Sports Medicine</h2>\r\nWe see athletes of all ages in our clinic all of the time.

The weakness that occurs after ligament injury to the knee, for example, may give rise to Runner’s knee, meniscal tears, chondromalacia patella, bone spurs and eventually to arthritis. When the ligament is injured, the harmony between the soft tissue, muscles and bony structures is disrupted, interfering with mobility and joint stability. What results is an unstable joint, one that moves abnormally, functions poorly, and becomes more and more damaged. When the ligaments are left untreated, the body will try to stabilize the joint by causing ongoing muscle spasms, joint swelling and eventually bone spur formation and degenerative arthritis...a cycle of persistent pain.\r\n\r\nInvolvement in athletics provides us with physical, emotional and mental well-being. However, when we’re faced with injury, we often set into motion the cycle of instability in the joint as mentioned above. This cycle also leads to the eventual development of arthritis, which can occur within a few years with severe injuries, or take decades to develop when the injury is less severe. <span lang=\"en\">Although progressive cartilage loss with its inhibition of joint motion plays a central role in arthritis, injury to other soft tissue structures actually initiates the change in equilibrium that leads to this breakdown of cartilage and the path to arthritis. </span>Athletes of all ages desire to be as fit as when in the prime of their athletic careers. But the pain and symptoms from non-healed sports injuries interferes with that dream!\r\n<h2>Treatment for Sports Injuries</h2>\r\nStandard treatments for sports injuries usually only involve the management of symptoms, which may include pain medications, cortisone/steroid injections, physical therapy, massage and other therapies to provide pain relief. These treatments may work to relieve pain temporarily or momentarily reduce the pain and inflammation. But when the athlete turns off the pain signal with medication use, while the joint is still injured, and continues to play and remain active on an injured joint, further damage ensues. It is important to realize that these treatment modalities do not repair soft tissue injuries, such as tendon, ligament, and meniscus tears, nor do they regenerate cartilage.\r\n\r\nThe key to keeping joints strong is to stimulate the area to heal. Regenerative Orthopedics does just that, offering hope to those suffering from sports injuries. They are the ideal treatment for sports injuries because they get you back to doing what you love. Plus, these therapies are non-surgical. The treatments regenerate and repair the damaged ligaments and soft tissue, allowing the athlete to continue with their desired activity. Non-surgical regenerative therapies, including Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy, stimulate the natural regenerative processes in and around the joint and facilitate the restoration of the degenerated soft tissue to a healthy state, improving joint support and function, and reducing pain and symptoms.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics involves the injection of natural solutions, and sometimes, depending on the nature of injury or degeneration, will also include injections of an autologous preparation, from a person’s own plasma (blood), fat or bone marrow, injected directly into the damaged joint to accelerate the healing process.\r\n<h2>Sports injuries do not need to put an end to the enjoyment of sports activities. There is an effective option for repair!</h2>\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics <span lang=\"en\">is a great non-surgical treatment ideal for</span> offering not only pain relief from sports injuries, but healing and reparation at the source of the injury. This regeneration and repair enables the athlete of all ages to speedily return to the sport or activity they love with minimal lifestyle interruption.','Why Regenerative Orthopedics Are the Ideal Sports Medicine','','inherit','closed','closed','','3134-revision-v1','','','2019-11-01 05:32:28','2019-11-01 05:32:28','',3134,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/3134-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3136,8,'2019-11-01 05:44:23','2019-11-01 05:44:23','<div class=\"clear\"></div>\r\n<div id=\"slider\">\r\n<div class=\"owl-carousel slider-carousel\">\r\n<div id=\"slide\" class=\"item\" style=\"background-image: url(\'https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Kili-top-header.jpg\');\">\r\n<div class=\"carousel-caption\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"header_text_first\">Congratulations\r\nPeter A.
