 TOP 10 CONDITIONS
FOR PROLOTHERAPY
Ross
Hauser, M.D.
Prolotherapy
helps relieve the
chronic pain
of many conditions but here are the top ten.
CHRONIC
LOW
BACK PAIN
Chronic low
back pain encompasses a lot of different conditions
including
degenerative disc disease,
spondylosis,
spondylolisthesis,
sacroiliac
ligament laxity and others. Since these conditions generally have as
their etiological basis
ligaments being
stretched, torn, and weakened
Prolotherapy is needed. Typically three-six visits are all that is
needed to relieve the pain.
CHRONIC NECK PAIN
Like chronic
low back pain, chronic
neck pain has ligament weakness as a common underlying cause. This can
lead to
Degenerative Disc Disease in the neck,
herniated discs,
and
myofascial pain syndromes. Typically three-six visits are all that
is needed to relieve the pain.
CHRONIC
HEADACHES
I believe because most of us are spending more and more time looking at
a computer screen with our necks in poor posture,
headache are on the
rise. The forward head posture puts a strain on the posterior ligaments.
As these weakened, neck muscles spasm and referral headaches occur.
Prolotherapy helps all types of headaches including tension, cluster,
and
migraine headaches.
TMJ SYNDROME
Perhaps the most used joint in the body is the
TMJ. The tempomandibular
joint is stressed every time a person talks or eats. Anyone who has
clicking in the joint has a good chance of having ligament injury in the
jaw. Prolotherapy is a great alternative for TMJ syndrome. It helps
strengthen the TMJ ligament, often resolving a chronically painful,
clicking joint.
KNEE ARTHRITIS
Athletes are especially prone to
knee arthritis. It is also a very large
joint which
orthopedic like to inject with
steroids.
These facts combined with the massive use of anti-inflammatories, make
knee
arthritis very common. About 250,000 Americans each year get
knee replacement.
A much better option for knee
arthritis is Prolotherapy. Depending on
the extent of the arthritis anywhere from 3-15 sessions of Prolotherapy
are needed.
ROTATOR CUFF INJURY
Most
shoulder pain
is from an injury to the
Rotator
Cuff.
The most common muscle/tendon
of the rotator cuff that gets injured is the
supraspinatus. The
supraspinatus
muscle/tendon is an external
rotator of the shoulder. It gets a lot of strain/stress when the
shoulder ligaments are weakened. This, in addition to the fact that the
blood supply to the supraspinatus tendon attachment on the humerus is
poor make injury likely especially in people who use their shoulders a
lot. Prolotherapy to the rotator cuff attachments onto the shoulder, as
well as the shoulder ligaments, is extremely effective at helping
chronic shoulder problems resolve. Typically three-six visits of
Prolotherapy are all that is needed.
ANNULAR LIGAMENT INJURY
People understand the term 'tennis
elbow' but most
chronic elbow
problems are annular ligament injury. This ligament is stressed
during rotation of the elbow. So any athlete who throws or a person who
has an occupation using the elbow, such as carpenters and people who
type a lot, are prone to annular ligament injury. Generally again
three-six visits of Prolotherapy are needed to resolve the problem.
CHRONIC ANKLE SPRAINS
The most common ligament injury in the body is an anterior talofibular
ligament injury or
ankle
sprain. People don't realize it but one third
of all ankle sprains don't heal completely. Eventually if the ligament
injury is not healed, arthritis occurs in the ankle. It is best to treat
ligament injuries early before arthritis develops. Again three-six
visits of Prolotherapy are needed. If there is arthritis in the ankle
then up to 15 visits may be needed.
TROCHANTERIC PAIN (HIP POINTER)
It is common for people to have pain on the side of the hip. There is a
big bone upon which 'the pain' sits called the greater trochanter. This
is where the gluteal muscles attach. Typically a person is diagnosed
with trochanteric
bursitis, but the pain is not from a true
inflammation of the bursa (fluid filled sac) but just weakness in
the muscle/tendon attachments at this site. Prolotherapy onto the
greater trochanter bone typically resolves the problem in three-six
visits.
Fibromyalgia
Yes even people with body pain need Prolotherapy. If a person has whole
body pain, they will often have one to three areas that hurt a lot more
than others. These are the ones that need Prolotherapy. To get rid of
the rest of the body pain the person needs a good nights
sleep and to balance body chemistry. So for
fibromyalgia typically
Prolotherapy is combined with natural medicine. The whole process takes
typically a year. |
