  1. How Regenerative Cell Treatment Heals Ankle Ligament Tears? Whenever an ankle ligament tear occurs, ankle ligament surgery seems to be the answer to treating it. However, it is not always the case. Our team can heal ankle ligament tears naturally via Medica Stem Cells Therapy in Ireland. To understand the significance of regenerative cell treatment in detail, let us go through what happens with your ankle during ankle ligament pain. What is ankle ligament tear? Ligaments are strong connective fibrous tissues that help in connecting bones with other bones. It stabilizes the ankle joint by preventing it from rotating too much inward. That is how it can prevent ankle sprain followed by ankle ligament tears. When there is an ankle ligament injury, you will lose the stability of your ankle. If you stretch the ligaments beyond their capacity, they tear. The ligament tear can occur to people of all age groups and can range from mild damage to severe. It usually occurs in the anterior talofibular ligament, calcaneofibular ligament, and the deltoid ligament. Mostly, ankle ligament tear takes place due to the rolling of the ankle part while walking or playing sports like football, rugby and other games. Furthermore, such ankle ligament injuries may lead to cartilage or bone fractures. Recurrent ligament tear is common among sportspersons. Hence, it can lead to long-term complications like arthritis. Symptoms of ankle ligament tear The initial symptoms of a ligament tear are swelling on the outer side of the ankle and bruising with a feeling of instability. During ankle ligament damage, the ankle rolls inward, and there will be sudden shooting pain. In some cases, the patients experience cracking noise from the ankle joint. Furthermore, it may become difficult to carry the full body weight on foot due to ankle ligament pain. Without proper treatment, it can become severe and may lead to long-term problems such as arthritis, chronic ankle pain, or instability in the ankle. Treatment for an ankle ligament tear The conventional treatment methods, including R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice therapy, Compression and Elevation) therapy, focus on treating the symptoms of the disease only.

  2. Administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroid injections reduce pain and inflammation. But many side effects may develop if used for a prolonged period. Ankle ligament surgery may not be effective in the long run and involve a painful post- surgical recovery period. It also involves a lot of risks such as bleeding, damage to the nerves, blood clots, in addition to complications that may arise due to general anaesthesia. Moreover, the cost of ankle ligament surgery is higher than the regenerative cell therapies. Regenerative cell treatment With the help of minimally invasive non-surgical regenerative therapy, it is possible to resolve ankle ligament pain by treating the underlying cause. Regenerative cell treatment not only addresses the injury but also treats the underlying cause and only local anaesthesia is required for the procedure, thus reducing side effects that come with general anaesthesia. Regenerative treatment aims to reduce pain by enhancing the repair mechanism of the damaged tissues without any major risks. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, one of the regenerative treatments, involves injecting concentrated platelets from the patient’s own blood to the affected area for enhanced healing. The growth factors in the platelets heal the damaged area by forming connective tissues, regulating cell metabolism, enhancing cell differentiation and much more. Another Medica Stem Cells therapy in Ireland for ankle tear pain includes a treatment where the cells are harvested from your own body, processed and then are re-injected at the site of damage. These cells quickly grow and differentiate into specific types of cells required at the damaged area. Since the cells are harvested from the patient’s own body, there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. Hence, regenerative cell treatment can be considered as a successful ankle ligament surgery alternative. So, avoid the painful and lengthy process of surgery. Get back to your normal routine life faster by undergoing regenerative therapy.
