The orthopedic medicine specialty has benefited from the newest technology and treatments in recent years. Procedures that were once invasive and painful are now relatively easy and fast thanks to innovations like laser technology and three-dimensional printing. Out of all of the advancements, the use of stem cell rejuvenation therapy stands out as one that perhaps has helped the most patients. You can decide if this treatment is right for you by learning what it is and what qualifications you are expected to meet as a patient.

When used correctly, this treatment has the ability to improve the way that you move and carry out everyday functions. It begins with your doctor taking a sample of your blood or bone marrow tissue from the hip bone. This sample is then put into a centrifuge machine that will separate the blood from the cells that are needed for the procedure.

Once the cells are removed from the marrow or blood sample, they are then combined with other ingredients like saline solution or steroids before they are injected directly into your body. The area where the doctor injects them will correlate with your impairment or illness. Some of the most common areas are the knees, ankles, shoulders, neck, and lower back.

To relieve your distress, the doctor doing the procedure may numb the area first with a gel or ointment. Once you are numb, you may then receive anywhere from one to three or four injections of cells combined with saline solution or steroid medication. You will stay in the operating room or doctor's office for an hour or less to make sure you do not have any complications to your recovery.

Most patients go on to recover quickly and without any complications at all. Still, their success depends greatly on their overall physical condition and the absence of illnesses that could impede their recuperation. Despite being taken from your own body, the cells cannot be given to women who are expecting or nursing a baby, for instance.

Likewise, patients are required not to suffer from underlying conditions that could complicate their recoveries. These conditions range from high blood pressure to heart disease and diabetes as well as bleeding disorders like hemophilia. If you have these illnesses, you may be denied for treatment and instead advised to consider other procedures.

This overall good health extends to your mental and emotional capacities as well. It is likely that you will be totally cured with the injections. You may notice rapid improvement in the range of motion you have as well as the amount of pain you experience each day. Still, you will continue to suffer from conditions like MS or osteoarthritis despite the procedure. Your physician will expect you to acknowledge this fact before approving you for treatment.

However, when you want to feel better than you do now without relying on medication, you might ask your physician about stem cell injections. This therapy may be your best alternative to moving around better each day without needing help. You also could avoid having to go through invasive surgery that is painful and time consuming from which to recover.
