What tissue types are appropriate for treatment with PRP? How many injections are needed?
Chronicly injured tendons(s), ligament(s), joint capsule and articular surfaces are often very positively impacted by treatment. Often a patient will receive 20-40 deep injections using the tenotomy technique described above. In addition, there are a corresponding number of superficial and deep anesthetic injections done to help alleviate the intense sensations from the tenotomy needling. Total injections may range from 40 to 80 when the deep therapeutic injections and anesthetic numbing injections are totaled.
