Injection Therapy

Regenerative Injection

Regenerative injection (DNA) therapy, also known as PDRN, is a component of nucleic acid (PDRN) extracted in very small amounts from a specific part of salmon, which almost matches the composition found in humans. Because it nearly matches the nucleic acids made in the human liver, when introduced into our body, it is rapidly absorbed and replenishes PDRN without side effects, effectively promoting regeneration of bodily tissues and cells.

Instead of providing temporary symptom relief, it works on the damaged tissues, triggering an inflammatory response that activates and strengthens tissue regeneration, thereby reducing pain and healing the injured area for a more fundamental treatment.

By aiding in the proliferation of fibroblasts, which heal and strengthen human tissues, this therapy can regenerate damaged ligaments, muscles, tendons, cartilage, and other joint structures.

Joint Injection

 

Joint injection therapy involves the direct injection of medications into the joint to effectively treat arthritis. This method quickly alleviates symptoms such as pain and inflammation based on the severity of the condition. It is a safe and straightforward treatment approach.

  1.  Hyaluronic Acid Injection, commonly referred to as Hyaluronic Acid Injection for Cartilage, helps in making joints move smoothly and absorbing external impacts to protect bones and tissues. It increases the viscosity and elasticity of blood within the joints. The pain-reducing effect may appear 1-3 weeks after injection, but the effects last for a long time.

  2. Conjointin injection is an intra-articular injection for the knee, consisting of a highly concentrated poly-nucleotide preparation, which is a tissue-restorative material. When injected into the knee, it forms a gel-like substance, maintaining a stable shape within the knee joint for an extended period. This injection demonstrates mechanical friction reduction and regenerative effects on damaged cartilage areas.

Conditions suitable for joint injection therapy

 

  • Rheumatoid arthritis: A condition where the immune system attacks and destroys joint tissues.

  • Gouty arthritis: A condition where uric acid accumulates, triggering inflammation in the tissues.

  • Osteoarthritis: A disease characterized by the wearing down of cartilage, leading to pain and joint deformity.

  • Tendonitis and bursitis: Conditions where inflammation occurs in the bursae, which are sacs that prevent friction.

Prolo Injection

Prolo injection therapy, also known as ligament strengthening injection therapy, involves administering medication that promotes cell activation and proliferation under the guidance of imaging devices such as fluoroscopy or ultrasound.

 

This treatment helps damaged ligament and tendon tissues recover. By using special medications to induce proliferation, it treats pain by injecting regenerative substances into ligament attachments or joint ligaments in real-time, observing through ultrasound to stimulate the growth of new tissue and strengthen the ligaments.

 

Benefits for Prolo Injection

  1. Prevention of Cartilage Wear and Joint Fluid Regeneration: Prevents the wear of cartilage, which is fundamental to joints, and enhances and regenerates joint fluid, aiding in cushioning the joints and promoting the regeneration of joint cells.

  2. Strengthening of Ligaments and Joints: Fundamentally regenerates damaged ligaments or tendons, strengthening and restoring damaged joints.

  3. Enhancement of Self-Healing Power: Promotes peripheral circulation to prevent the recurrence of joint pain and enhances the body’s inherent self-healing ability to prevent joint damage.

Conditions suitable for Prolo Injection

  • Knee: Degenerative arthritis, ligament injuries, cartilage damage

  • Foot: Plantar fasciitis, chronic plantar ligament laxity, ligament tears

  • Spine: Chronic cervical and lumbar pain disorders, forward head posture and straight neck, scoliosis

  • Shoulder: Frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries

Nerve Block

During the procedure, continuous fluoroscopic imaging is used to accurately administer special medication to the nerve branches being compressed by a herniated spinal disc, causing pain and inflammation. A long injection needle is used to deliver medication that blocks the nerve and treats inflammation, thereby alleviating acute pain.

 

Real-time X-ray or ultrasound equipment is used to locate the painful area around the swollen nerves. The needle is positioned around the nerves to inject a local anesthetic, anti-inflammatory medication, and neurotherapy agent. In cases of severe inflammation, steroids may be used, but only in very small amounts, less than one-tenth of the standard dosage, minimizing the risk of side effects.

 

Selective Nerve Block

This injection therapy can address acute and chronic pain from disc diseases, spinal stenosis, and post-surgical pain. It is typically performed when there are symptoms of lower back pain and leg numbness.

 

Medial Branch Block

Medication is injected to block nerves connected to painful facet joints during the procedure. This reduces pain by alleviating inflammation and irritation around the nerves.

 

Epidural Nerve Block

The procedure is performed in the epidural space where the nerves causing pain are located. It allows for targeted pain control rather than affecting the entire leg. It is commonly used for pain management and during epidural anesthesia for childbirth.

 

Characteristics of Nerve Block

 

  • Short and Comfortable Procedure: The procedure time is short, and there is minimal discomfort during the process.

  • Quick Return to Daily Life: No hospitalization is required; patients can return to daily activities after resting for about 30 minutes post-procedure.

  • High Safety: The procedure is safe for elderly patients and those with conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.

  • Low Risk of Side Effects and Complications: The risk of side effects, sequelae, and complications is very low, making repeat procedures possible.
