How To Heal Knee Arthritis Pain With Regenerative
Treatment?
2
  • Knee pain is a very common symptom prevalent
    among not only the elders but also the younger
    ones. Arthritis is the most common cause of knee
    pain.
  • There are two types of knee arthritis such as
    osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition,
    otherwise called wear-and-tear arthritis.
  • The cartilage gives a cushion-like effect between
    the bone joints.
  • In osteoarthritis, wear and tear activities
    remove the cartilage gradually.

3
  • Hence, joint bones run against each other, which
    leads to knee pain. In rheumatoid arthritis, the
    immune system attacks itself by damaging the
    cartilage.
  • As and when the knee pain becomes severe, the
    muscles around the affected knee portion weaken.
    Hence, this condition leads to joint deformity
    where the knee shape may point inwards or
    outwards.
  • Knee arthritis not only causes pain.
  • It is also accompanied by other symptoms like
    tenderness, limited range of motion, stiffness,
    swelling, warmth sensation and cracking noise,
    especially while climbing the steps.

 Causes of Knee Arthritis
  • Knee arthritis is more common among females
    compared to males.
  • The varied causes of knee arthritis include
    previous joint injuries, trauma, obesity, bone
    deformities, strenuous activities with repetitive
    movements, genetics, family history, Vitamin D
    and calcium deficiency.
  • Over secretion of growth hormone and iron
    overload increase the risk to develop knee
    arthritis.

5
 Diagnosis of Knee Arthritis
  • Knee arthritis can be diagnosed by performing a
    physical examination and an X-ray scan.
  • If the pain is severe, the physician may opt for
    an MRI scan for a detailed examination of bones,
    cartilage and soft bones.
  • The physician will suggest a synovial fluid
    examination or blood test to detect rheumatoid
    arthritis.

6
Treatment for Knee Arthritis
  • The preliminary treatment measures for knee pain
    include R.I.C.E. therapy and medications to
    control the symptoms and avoid further joint
    damage.
  • The home-based treatment named R.I.C.E. formula
    comprises of Rest, Ice therapy, Compression and
    Elevation.
  • Medications such as analgesics and non-steroidal
    anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) provide only
    short-term relief.
  • If the pain continues, the physician may
    recommend the administration of corticosteroid
    injections, but they can also provide only
    temporary relief with few side effects.
  • Prolonged use of corticosteroid injections will
    suppress the bodys natural healing mechanism,
    and the patient may end up with knee replacement
    surgery.

7
  • Regenerative treatment can put an end to your
    long-lasting symptoms by repairing the damaged
    cells and restoring the normal function.
  • Regenerative therapy is a non-surgical procedure
    with minimal downtime.
  • It enhances recovery within a short period by
    stimulating your bodys healing mechanism
    naturally.
  • The regenerative treatment has no side effects
    since it involves your own stem cells or blood
    cells.
  • Hence, there is neither any rejection issues nor
    any cross-transmission of disease.

8
  • Regenerative treatment includes Platelet Rich
    Plasma (PRP) therapy, Prolotherapy, SVF (Stromal
    Vascular Fraction) cell therapy and Mesenchymal
    cell therapy.
  • It is essential to treat the cause of the
    disease, instead of suppressing the related
    symptoms.
  • This is where regenerative treatment proves to be
    safe and effective it naturally treats the
    underlying cause.
