Health Anyone had PRP therapy?

Yeah, sticking a big needle into my shoulder multiple times with no local was fun LOL

Apparently the tear was going right up into the joint somehow and preventing it from healing properly.

Crossing fingers.

Your knees are still good after you had it done?
Yep knee still feels good. It got extra tested with the other lower leg being in a cast for 6 weeks too.

For now yeah. If it starts to hurt again I can go back, but so far so good.
 
Update us on your recovery, bud. Been following this treatment for a while and am interested.
As an update: Eight days later, I have only lightly tested basic range of motion and some light band resistance but the pain seems to mostly be gone already.

The doctor said to not get back to any heavy weights till at least two weeks after the second treatment, which will be mid January. I'm just going to take it easy till then... but feeling really positive so far, after being injured for more than a year.

About as good as you could have hoped for 👍
 
Yep, no complaints. The beer is probably killing any pain currently. Crankshaft for the win :)
Hell yeah. In other news I heard Capital are opening another bar in Feb, location tba.

Nice, hopefully somewhere central rather than shit out in the middle of nowhere in Fyshwick.
