Recover Faster & Find Relief From Foot & Ankle Pain
If you’re experiencing foot and ankle pain after an injury, or if you have arthritis, stem cell therapy could be an ideal treatment option for you. Arthritis can cause pain and stiffness, numbness and tingling, and more, but regenerative stem cell therapy uses cells from your own body to help problem areas heal faster with long-term results. AllCare Foot & Ankle Center provides this innovative treatment to patients in order to help them get back to their normal activities.
Stem Cell Therapy Can be Used For:
- Reducing the length of time it takes for injuries or wounds to heal.
- Reducing chronic joint pain with less medication.
- Increasing functionality, range of motion, and flexibility.
- Decreasing nerve damage.
- Helping patients return to normal activities faster.
Stem Cell Therapy for Foot & Ankle Pain
Stem cells have the amazing ability to become many other types of cells and can be used to create new muscle, ligament, tendon, bone, and cartilage.
After an injury or when conditions have led to chronic pain, a sample of fatty tissue is taken from your own body (typically around the abdomen) and stem cells are harvested from the tissue. The cells are then injected into the problem area and helps the bone, muscle, or whatever it may be to regenerate and heal.
Stem cell therapy is quickly becoming a popular alternative to invasive surgery. While surgery is still a common treatment option for foot and ankle conditions, the process is painful and can involve a lengthy recovery time and possibly physical therapy. Stem cell therapy is quick, painless (a local anesthetic is used when taking a tissue sample), and doesn’t require any down time or recovery time. Patients often begin to feel relief from pain around three weeks, but it can sometimes take between six and eight weeks.
