Testimony Blog – Back playing volleyball after PRP for shoulder
Although the players are separated by a net, there is still a risk of getting injured during volleyball. Mostly, players are seen with ankle sprains that may affect one or both ankles. Acute knee injuries are less common for volleyball as compared with football, but they can injure knee ligaments that cause severe pain. Elite players use their shoulders, knees, and lower back which can lead to the occurrence of injuries.
Common injuries during Volleyball
- Ankle sprain
- Meniscus tear
- Lower back pain
- Patellofemoral pain syndrome
- Collateral ligament injury
- Jumper’s knee
What is PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)?
Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a type of regenerative medicine in which a small amount of the patient’s own blood is used to create a source of healing platelets. This therapy can help to promote the repairing of damaged tissues. For this purpose, the blood sample is taken and a platelet is extracted from it. Now, the doctor can inject the platelet into the injured area to speed up the healing process.
Platelets consist of growth factors that stimulate the body’s own healing process. The PRP injections contain concentrated platelets to accelerate the healing process and help you in recovery. PRP is an advanced technique highly recommended due to its positive results.
