I have a torn meniscus and
my doctors suggested I have arthroscopy.
I wanted to know how
Prolotherapy works and what is the recovery time and is Prolotherapy a
permanent cure?
A. For people with meniscal and
cartilage issues, generally more than
the average three to six visits will be needed for complete healing of
the knee, but it IS possible to achieve some significant healing and
relief. At each session, you would receive from 20-30
injections to
strengthen the meniscus and
cartilage, as well as the surrounding
ligaments. Treatments are generally spaced four weeks apart. But if you
are in a hurry, treatments can be given every one to two weeks. The
wonderful part of
Prolotherapy is that you can exercise while you are
undergoing the treatment. For
meniscal injuries this would typically
involve Bosu Ball, cycling and swimming. No
running
generally.
The results we see with
Prolotherapy are usually curative (although not
everyone will get these desired results.) Once an individual has completed
the treatments as recommended by the physician, the area does not need
further treatment unless there is a reinjury. Also, after each session
there are usually no limitations. You can return to work as usual. Of
course, one would not want to continue any activity that causes
excessive pain.
