Acute and chronic ankle problems are common sports injuries. Aruptured Achilles tendon is a very difficult dilemma. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Stem Cell Therapy has been previously used by sports stars with success. Now Kobe Bryant has a torn Achilles tendon confirmed on MRI.  Bryant has had injuries before, turning tonPlatelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) for a knee problem.

The road back to recovery from a ruptured Achilles tendon may be a long one. Rehabilitation may be 6-9 months. Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Steve Bono torn one achilles had surgery and a lengthy rehab process, only to sustain another Achilles tear to the other leg the following year. After that injury Bono, at the suggestion of former 49ers great Joe Montana, opted for PRP treatment. This was successful according to Bono. PRP has been levitra used for a variety of musculoskeletal disorders.

Many sports stars have decided to use PRP as a conservative alternative to surgery.

Knees have been commonly treated by various elite athletes. The ability to recover in an expedient fashion with regenerative medicine therapies is appealing. Further trauma is avoided by foregoing surgery for the conservative route of PRP. Accumulated trauma leads to acceleration of degenerative arthritis, which is deleterious to a lengthy and top caliber career.

Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) and Stem Cell Therapy have been used together to provide the potential for enhanced healing effect. The regenerative field is emerging as a viable option in sports medicine for athletic injuries.
