Hi, my mother has Osteoarthritis and thus she suffers from chronic knee pain. Just wanted to know how effective stem cell therapy may be in her case. I also have a few doubts listed below:
What are the benefits of stem cell therapy for osteoarthritis (if any)?
What is the down-time after the procedure? My mother is a teacher and doesn't have the provision to take too many leaves.
How much a procedure like this likely to cost?
Treatment of knee joint osteoarthritis depends on age, clinical examination and radiological finding (grading of osteoarthritis).
pain is chronic and osteoarthritis garde is 3 /4 .there is no role of conservation management like PRP and all.
Stem cell might help in stage 1 osteoarthritis but not proven yet...
send you details or x-ray-for further management..
