About PRP at Monad Doc
What is PRP?
PRP is made from a small sample of your own blood. The platelets are concentrated, extracted, and injected into the problem area. Platelets carry signaling proteins and growth factors involved in healing; concentrating them at the site of injury stimulates the body's repair response.
PRP offers an option between conservative treatment and surgery. It is not a guarantee of pain relief or tissue repair, and results vary. The goal is to determine whether it makes sense for your condition.
