Is there an option besides surgery or pain pills near Warren, MI?
Yes. Regenerative medicine is a third option for chronic pain for patients near Warren, MI who want to avoid long-term pain medication or surgery. Our physicians use PRP, bone marrow-derived cell therapy, and prolotherapy, placed under image guidance, to support healing in injured tissue.
There is an option between living with chronic pain and having surgery. For Warren patients who want to avoid long-term pain medication or an operation, the Michigan Center for Regenerative Medicine offers regenerative treatment at our Rochester Hills clinic.
Why Live With Chronic Pain?
Pain medication can mask symptoms while the injury remains, and surgery comes with recovery time and risk. Regenerative treatment aims at the injured tissue itself. It may be worth discussing if you have:
- Arthritis in the knee, hip, or shoulder
- Tendon pain that keeps coming back
- A ligament injury that has not fully healed
- Back or neck pain that has not responded to other care
Getting Back to Normal
Our physicians use PRP, bone marrow-derived cell therapy, and prolotherapy, each placed under image guidance during an outpatient visit. Many plans also include physical therapy to rebuild strength. Results vary, and your physician will explain what is realistic.
