I want to know more information about PRP injection. Please tell me how this injection heals our injuries more effectively and rapidly. PRP Therapy Centers
Platelet rich plasma injections contain stem cells and blood factors that turn into what the body needs at the site of an injury. It is used to repair damaged muscle, tendons, ligaments. I had the injections to grow more cartilage and the injections reduced my joint pain temporarily. Some new cartilage developed. Best results are with younger people with sports injuries.
I want to know how can my husband be medicate with that kind of medication. How much will i prepare for that medication? He have a lower back pain and now his right shoulder is aching because of athritis.

Please see my book Naturally Pain Free. You may want to use a massage or stretching for lower back pain or an ointment. I explain them in that book. good luck, L
I was sorry to hear you were having severe arthritis. I’ve had some arthritis in my hands and a torn ligament in my knee. I was able to eradicate this with high doses of B vitamins. This also works on headache and backache. I also gave it to my daughter for menstrual cramps with good results. So a variety of pain issues can be assisted this way. I know you’re a vegan so I suspect that your diet does not contain enough B vitamins. This could be the cause! Thanks for your tips and good luck!
Thanks Maya
I tried many ways to ease pain and grow new cartilage over 10 years and wrote a book called Naturally Pain Free. Thanks for your advice. B vitamins are important especially for non-meat eaters.
