Prolotherapy and
artificial knees |
Yes,
Prolotherapy can help people with artificial knees and hips,
assuming the knees and hips are aligned in the proper position. Most of
the pain after an artificial knee or
hip
relates to the structures around the joint. For the knees,
it is the pes anserina
tendons. These are stretched during the
surgery
and often when a person rehabs after a
knee replacement
these tendons and their muscles are not strengthened. Most
likely this area
had degenerated along with the knees prior to the surgery
and nothing had been done to strengthen it.
So when the knee joint is strong and the
tendons and muscles are not strong, pain inevitably
develops. By
strengthening the
tendon attachments of the pes anserina around the knee
with
Prolotherapy, the knee pain typically resolves and walking improves
dramatically.
When a person gets a knee or
hip replacement there is a lot of
stretching of normal anatomical structures during the surgery. So
residual pain after the surgery can be
ligament or tendon laxity
(weakness/tearing). Typically three to six visits of
Prolotherapy
can
help alleviate the pain.
