Stem cell therapy has proven to be a more effective and efficient treatment for chronic pain in the back, knees, shoulders and elbows. This is great news for athletes and an increasing number are now exploring stem cells for treatment of sports injuries.

Stem cell treatment is a promising treatment option in musculoskeletal medicine. Stem cell treatments have been showing positive results for many patients of joint pain all over the world.In fact, stem cell treatment not only helps in pain relief but also can prevent further joint inflammation.

Stem cell treatment for athletes

Both professional athletes, and people who have an active lifestyle, may suffer from symptoms that look like early onset arthritis, such as pain in the knees, elbows, and shoulders.

The extent of athletic injuries is often enough for doctors to suggest invasive surgery. However, we know that all surgery is potentially risk and can sideline you for months as you rehab.

And this is where stem cell treatment can be most efficient.

Injuries that can be treated with stem cells include –
• muscle strains
• inflamed joints
• ligament sprains
• signs of early osteoarthritis

Today, one of the most effective stem cell treatment is the use of umbilical cord stem cells. For example, R3 Stem Cell International’s regenerative program in Pakistan offers complete stem cell treatment with millions of live, verified stem cells. The umbilical cord stem cells are potent, powerful and come from an FDA-certified lab in the US and we have found them to produce the best results.

Can stem cell treatment help athletes avoid surgery?

This is a common question from athletes who are injured and anxiously looking to get back to their game. The honest answer is that every athlete and every injury is different.

However, the recovery time after stem cell treatment is a tiny fraction of traditional joint or soft tissue surgery. Another good news is that since stem cell treatment rarely produces negative side effects for a patient, even if surgery is needed at a later stage, and determined to be the only course of treatment, your stem cell treatment won’t prevent that. In fact, stem cell treatment can also be used with traditional surgeries to accelerate and aid recovery.

If you are an athlete, who is looking for quick recovery so that you can get back to your game, it is best to talk to a stem cell expert at a trusted stem cell treatment center and understand whether your injury or condition makes you an ideal candidate for stem cell therapy.
