When joint cartilage degenerates, bones end up rubbing together, resulting in Knee osteoarthritis pain, limiting movement and increasing discomfort over time, consequently affecting daily life. Patients are always seeking non-surgical methods for relieving knee pain, and there are various options available.

What are the symptoms of early knee osteoarthritis and friction?

The symptoms of knee OA can differ from person to person depending on the severity of Knee osteoarthritis pain and joint damage. There is typically an aching in and around the area of the knee, which might be felt down the leg as well. Movement of the joint can also be limited, making it harder to bend and straighten. Other symptoms commonly experienced in the early stages of knee OA include knee swelling, which can result from joint inflammation, and knee stiffness. Stiffness often occurs after resting for extended periods.

What are the common causes of knee osteoarthritis?

Knee stiffness can occur due to several factors, including:

• Aging: As we age, the cartilage in the knee tends to wear down.
• Genetics: Genetics may play a role in the development of osteoarthritis.
• Sports Injuries: Sports injuries can weaken the cartilage, leading to knee osteoarthritis. Additionally, repetitive physical activities like standing for long periods or performing exercises that put pressure on the knee can also contribute.
• Excess weight: Extra weight puts additional pressure on the knee, which accelerates cartilage wear.
• Arthritis: Chronic arthritis leads to cartilage damage.

How can knee osteoarthritis be treated with PRP injections?

The latest non-surgical procedure found useful in managing knee osteoarthritis and Knee osteoarthritis pain is PRP injection therapy. In this procedure, the patient's blood is collected, and platelet-rich plasma is isolated because it contains a high concentration of platelets, proteins, and growth factors that support the healing of damaged tissues.

During PRP injection therapy, a local anesthetic is administered to ensure patient comfort. A blood sample is collected, platelet-rich plasma is separated using a specialized medical device, and then injected into the knee joint under image guidance to improve accuracy and treatment outcomes.
