Stem Cell Therapy for Hips
What pain does osteoarthritis of the hips cause?
The hip is one of the body’s largest weight bearing joints, surrounded by large muscles that support the joint and enable movement.
Because movement involves the muscles around the buttocks, high thigh, lower back, and the front and back of the thigh, symptoms of osteoarthritis often present as a dull, aching pain in the groin, outer thigh, and knee. Other symptoms involving fever, loss of appetite and fatigue, or pain and stiffness in the hip.
Treating osteoarthritis of the hip with surgery
Hip surgery to replace or repair damaged hip joints, exercise to improve the range of motion and strengthen muscles, and medications for managing pain and inflammation are treatments commonly used to address these conditions.
Treating osteoarthritis of the hip with stem cell therapy
In successful stem cell therapy, US doctors are also using stem cells derived from bone marrow to treat this condition.
Studies into the results of stem cell treatments administered by Australian doctors are showing positive outcomes in reduced pain from pre-treatment to post treatment across genders, and age groups.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, completing the HOOS assessment form will help us determine the extent of the condition.
Our team can also provide a complete medical assessment of your condition, and advice you if stem cell therapy is an appropriate alternative.
