Joint pain can make simple movements difficult. In the long term, these changes disturb daily functioning and overall independence. Even jogging, walking, climbing stairs, or getting up from a chair becomes painful.
PRP therapy is effective for people who find it hard to do day-to-day tasks because of arthritis and autoimmune disorders. Our rheumatology experts use platelet-rich plasma therapy for conditions including:
| Factor | PRP Therapy | Stem Cell Therapy |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Considered more affordable and accessible | More expensive than PRP due to a complex procedure |
| Complexity | Simpler process (blood draw → concentrate platelets → inject) | More complex (cell collection + additional processing may require specialized facilities) |
| Complications | Lowest risk (uses your own blood) | Added procedure-related risks from cell harvesting |
| Evidence | Stronger overall track record with broader clinical use | Evidence is more variable depending on the type of stem cell procedure |
| Processing Time | Usually same-day and quick (often under an hour) | It may take days to weeks for treatment |
