Ankle and foot injuries are known very well by athletes, but they are not the only people who suffer from ankle or foot injuries. When these types of injuries occur, a person’s mobility and ankle functionality will decrease substantially. Ankles and feet are highly susceptible to sprains, strains, and fractures. At Regenerative Medicine Of Palo Alto in Palo Alto, our Regenerative Medicine therapy and Platelet-Rich Plasma injection therapy have helped many people recover from ankle and foot injuries. Regenerative medicine and PRP are extremely useful when improving tendon and ligament injuries, such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon injuries, and ankle ligament injuries.
Our Regenerative Medicine Therapy offers patients an alternative to ankle surgeries and replacements. By concentrating cells before they can become “specialized cells” in the body, we reintroduce them into the affected area of the foot or ankle to promote an heightened form of natural healing.
