Prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are effective, minimally invasive treatment options for meniscal injuries. PRP injections can promote healing by increasing the concentration of growth factors at the injury site. Prolotherapy involves the injection of a solution of concentrated dextrose into the injured ligament or tendon to stimulate the body’s healing response.

If you are suffering from a meniscal injury, talk to your doctor about whether PRP or prolotherapy may be right for you.
