  1. Top FAQs on Knee Pain – Explanation by Medica Stem Cells Clinic

  2. People have so many queries and doubts regarding knee pain. Hence, this article highlights those frequently asked questions and describes each one in detail. • Is it true that everyone experiences knee pain? Answer: Estimates suggest that nearly 1 in 5 adults undergo knee pain. Mostly, either overactivity or limited activity is the cause of knee pain in many people. Moreover, diabetes and obesity also trigger knee pain

  3. Will you surely experience pain due to knee arthritis as you age? • Due to excess wear and tear, your knee joint cartilage may weaken as you become older. It’s not only heredity but also factors such as obesity, diabetes, etc., that can also increase the risk of the breakdown of your cartilage tissue. And this cartilage breakdown further develops knee arthritis. • Just maintain a healthy weight so that it is possible to prevent or delay knee arthritis.

  4. Should you strictly avoid physical therapy? • Many people think that physical therapy does not bring any relief from knee pain. However, it is not so. • Our Medica Stem Cells clinic specialists' team recommends physical therapy after the stem cell treatment is done to speed up the recovery. • First, our team will check if you are eligible for this combinational (physical therapy + stem cell therapy) treatment. We recommend specific physical therapy steps that can reduce the strain on your knee part, strengthen your knee muscles, and lessen the risk of disability.

  5. Is there any disadvantage in conventional treatment for knee pain? • Yes. If you consume nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for a prolonged duration, they may increase the risk of strokes, cardiac problems, kidney dysfunction, and gastrointestinal problems. • Corticosteroid injections provide relief from knee pain by reducing inflammation. However, its prolonged use may cause weakening of the tendon part of injection and the associated areas. Furthermore, they are prone to breakdown as well. • Surgery could be the last available option. But it can increase the risk of surgical complications with a broad post-rehabilitation session. • Hence, try to follow the treatment option to offer a long-lasting effect.

  6. Is there any research proving that stem cell therapy can successfully treat your knee pain? • Yes. A 2019 research study titled ‘Stromal vascular fraction cell therapy for osteoarthritis in elderly: Multicenter case-control study’ revealed that SVF (Stromal Vascular Fraction) cell therapy works well in elders with grades 2-4 degenerative knee osteoarthritis. It is a rapid, safe, and effective treatment with an improved quality of life. • Similarly, another 2019 research article titled, ‘Minimally Manipulated Mesenchymal Stem Cells for the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review of Clinical Evidence’ reported that BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) treatment is beneficial and safe.

  7. Will the pain due to knee arthritis reverse? • SVF (Stromal Vascular Fraction) cell therapy and BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) therapy come under regenerative cellular treatment. Stem cell therapy is the one-stop long term solution to your continuous knee pain. • Unlike other conventional methods, stem cell treatment can restore your standard structure and function. It also provides excellent relief from knee pain and other associated symptoms like stiffness, numbness, and a weaker range of motion. • Furthermore, stem cell treatment can naturally heal the damaged knee region and revive new cells within a short duration without any adverse side effects. This is safe and effective treatment without hospitalisation. • Hence, you may not experience knee pain again if you opt for stem cell treatment.

  8. Can stem cell therapy regrow affected knee cartilage to remove pain permanently? • Yes. Research evidence proves that stem cell therapy can help in regenerating cartilage. • Knee cartilage can offer a shock-absorbing mechanism. As it helps in sliding, knee joints can smoothly glide. • Just getting rid of knee pain is not enough. It is mandatory to repair and restore the natural ability of cartilage. This is where stem cell therapy helps. • Surgeons derive stem cells from the patient’s adipose or fat, bone marrow, and synovial fluid. Among these origins, bone marrow and adipose derived cells are the best source as it contain the mesenchymal stem cells possessing ability to regenerate. • Bone marrow and adipose-derived stem cells exhibit the following functions: • Cartilage regeneration • Tendon and ligament repair • Reduce inflammation • improve blood flow in the affected region and trigger cell repair
