Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. By the time OA reaches Stage 4, it becomes severe, causing intense pain and significant limitations in mobility. Understanding the complexities of Stage 4 osteoarthritis and the innovative solutions available through regenerative medicine is essential for those seeking alternatives to surgery. Regencare, a leading hospital in regenerative treatments, offers advanced solutions to improve joint health and enhance quality of life.
What is Stage 4 Osteoarthritis?
Stage 4 osteoarthritis is the most advanced stage of this degenerative joint condition. At this stage, the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of bones is almost entirely worn away. This results in:
-
1. Severe joint pain and stiffness
-
2. Bone-on-bone contact causing friction
-
3. Significant inflammation and swelling
-
4. Noticeable joint deformity
-
5. Mobility restrictions that interfere with daily activities
People with Stage 4 OA often find conventional treatments like medication, physiotherapy, and lifestyle adjustments insufficient. Surgery, such as total joint replacement, is commonly recommended—but regenerative medicine offers an alternative solution.
How Regenerative Medicine Can Help in Stage 4 Osteoarthritis
Regenerative medicine focuses on using the body’s natural healing processes to repair and regenerate damaged tissues. At Regencare, specialized regenerative therapies are tailored to manage and potentially reverse osteoarthritis symptoms.
1. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy involves drawing the patient's blood, isolating the platelet-rich plasma, and injecting it into the affected joint. PRP is rich in growth factors that promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production.
Benefits:
-
1. Reduces joint pain and stiffness
-
2. Enhances cartilage healing
-
3. Supports improved joint function
2. Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy is a revolutionary treatment that harnesses the body's natural repair cells. Stem cells are injected into the affected joint to regenerate damaged cartilage, reduce inflammation, and improve joint mobility.
Benefits:
-
1. Promotes cartilage regeneration
-
2. Reduces pain and swelling
-
3. May delay or prevent the need for joint replacement surgery
