Stem cell treatment is a type of regenerative medicine designed to fight inflammation and alleviate symptoms related to arthritis, joint pain, and fractures. It involves the use of stem cells obtained from the patient’s body fat or bone marrow.
Stem cells are a specific type of cell that can turn into other cells. A stem cell divides to create more cells. The new cells can become specialized cells such as brain cells, muscle cells, bone cells, or blood cells.
Injecting stem cells allows the body to repair itself. After the injection, the stem cells divide and develop into new cells depending on the site of the injection. For example, a person suffering from joint pain in the knees may receive an injection in or near the knees.
Basically, the stem cells help generate healthy cells to replace diseased or missing cells.
Stem cells contain anti-inflammatory properties that may alleviate osteoarthritis pain related to inflammation. In a 2011 study, patients with severe OA pain were able to walk longer after receiving injections of mesenchymal stem cells.
These treatments may reduce pain, increase joint function, and improve the quality of life for patients suffering from various orthopedic problems.
Stem cells are also being used to treat joint injuries and degeneration. People with limited joint function or joint injuries may experience greater mobility after receiving multiple stem cell treatments.
There are already over 20 major clinical studies and case studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals that demonstrate the ability of stem cells to regenerate damaged tissue.
The use of stem cells for fracture recovery is an exciting area of stem cell therapy. In one review, the injection of stem cells achieved a 75% union of fractured bone tissue after 14 weeks. In another case, a patient experienced 88% union after four months.
