  1. Treat Thumb Osteoarthritis with PRP Treatment

  2. Thumb osteoarthritis is a deteriorating condition, so many people are forced to opt for thumb joint replacement. • However, many people are unaware of non-invasive alternate methods for delaying or avoiding thumb joint replacement surgeries. • In Medica Stem Cells Clinic, we offer treatment methods that may help you avoid the invasive method of thumb joint replacement with non-invasive therapies for thumb osteoarthritis. • Let us know first what thumb osteoarthritis is before we proceed with the non-invasive methods.

  3. How thumb osteoarthritis occurs? • Compared to the other fingers, the thumb is distinctive because it can rotate more on its own at the carpometacarpal joint (CMC joint). • CMC joint is situated at the bottom of the thumb, and it is commonly known as a basal joint. The thumb joint is held together inside a joint capsule that is filled with synovial fluid. • This synovial fluid acts as a lubricant for the smooth movement of the thumb. • Thumb osteoarthritis usually occurs in the CMC joint. • In the case of thumb osteoarthritis, the cartilage of the CMC joint deteriorates, and the easy movement of one bone over the other gets hampered.

  4. Signs of thumb osteoarthritis • The most common sign of thumb arthritis is basal joint pain. The thumb gets worsened due to continuous movement, swelling, and stiffness around the region of the basal joint. Hence, there will be difficulty in gripping objects using the thumb. • Heal thumb osteoarthritis by conventional treatment • There are multiple forms of conventional therapies, like corticosteroid injections, RICE (Rest, Ice therapy, Compression, and Elevation) therapy, and prescribing NSAIDs (administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), e.g. ibuprofen. • However, these can only provide momentary relief from inflammation and pain.

  5. Thumb osteoarthritis treatment with regenerative therapy • Various regenerative therapies, including cell therapy and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, can help reduce your pain levels and offer faster recovery in a shorter time than conventional surgical treatment methods. • These therapies aid in repairing the damaged tissues naturally and regenerating newer tissues in the damaged region. • he platelets rich plasma containing active bio proteins and the regenerative cells used in Regenerative treatments are extracted from the patient’s own body. Therefore, there is no risk of any allergy or rejection. • Significant improvement may be seen in the patient as early as two weeks. • Regenerative cell therapy helps in bringing the thumb joint to its normal mobility and function naturally. Hence, Regenerative therapy can be the best alternative to thumb joint replacement in some cases
