Pelvic Pain Treatment in Raleigh, NC
You need healthy pelvic muscles and tendons to move comfortably, control urination and bowel movements, give birth and enjoy sex, among other things.
But both women and men experience pelvic pain that interferes with their lives. If you’re one of those women or men, you have options, including medication and surgery. But first, you might want to consider a PRP injection if your PT has told you that you have issues with particular hip or pelvic muscles.
Treating Pelvic Pain
Traditional treatment of pelvic instability often involves adjusting and realigning the area to provide pain relief. In order for the pelvic structure to maintain stability, the ligaments that hold the structure in place need to be strengthened and tightened.
With PRP, platelets are obtained through a sample of the patient’s whole blood, isolating the platelets from the other blood cells. The nutrient rich platelets are then injected into and around the point of injury, initiating and strengthening the body’s natural healing response.
