RISKS IN KNEE SURGERY VS. REGENERATIVE MEDICINE

CONVENTIONAL KNEE PAIN TREATMENTS:

When it comes to knee pain, traditional treatments abound. Dr. Anwar takes various factors into consideration to determine the most suitable option based on your pain's cause and severity. While these treatments offer temporary relief, they may not provide lasting solutions.

• Cortisone Injections: Also known as corticosteroid injections, these steroids reduce pain and inflammation for several months. Although they offer successful relief, repeated injections can lead to tissue damage.

• Hyaluronic Acid Injections: Viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid restores joint function temporarily, providing cushioning for 4-6 months. This option is gentler on tissues than steroids.

• Genicular Nerve Block: This technique temporarily numbs knee joint pain sensation to aid diagnosis and guide long-term pain management strategies.

NUTRITION FOR JOINT HEALTH:

Boost joint health and lubrication by incorporating foods rich in healthy fats into your diet. Salmon, trout, mackerel, avocados, olive oil, almonds, walnuts, and chia seeds contain omega-3 fatty acids that promote joint lubrication.

UNLOCK RAPID HEALING WITH REGENERATIVE THERAPY: 

Experience the revolutionary power of PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy. Dr. Zaki Anwar creates a personalized PRP solution containing over 30 active growth factors extracted from your own blood. These platelets stimulate tissue and blood vessel repair, expediting natural recovery.

Stem cells are pivotal in healing, transforming into necessary tissue types. For ailing joints, exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cord, placental tissue, or amniotic fluid can be injected into the area to reduce inflammation and foster the growth of healthy tissue like cartilage. X-ray evidence confirms increased cartilage between bones, alleviating arthritis pain. Augment your body's inherent healing with the addition of stem cells to the affected area.

UNVEILING CHICAGO STEM CELL THERAPY:

Chicago Stem Cell Therapy offers minimally invasive, non-surgical regenerative treatments utilizing exosomes derived from placental or umbilical cord tissue or amniotic fluid. Our approach focuses on naturally repairing, restoring, and regenerating damaged or diseased tissue to treat or prevent injury and disease.

THE POTENTIAL OF STEM CELL THERAPY:

While stem cell therapy's efficacy varies for each individual, numerous studies attest to its success across various diagnoses. Healing takes time, with some patients experiencing immediate relief while others realize benefits in a few months. Dr. Zaki Anwar's dedication to groundbreaking medicine ensures the integration of regenerative therapy into daily practice.

LOW-RISK REGENERATIVE MEDICINE:

Experience minimal risk with Regenerative Medicine. No incisions or sutures are required, and recovery is swift. Slight soreness at the injection site is manageable with ice. For enhanced recovery, explore options like analgesic creams or Pressure Wave (Shockwave or EPAT) Therapy. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) utilizes your blood, eliminating the risk of rejection or infection. Stem cells are sourced from healthy mothers delivering healthy babies, screened rigorously for purity and safety.

RETHINKING SURGERY:

While surgery remains a last-resort option, advances in regenerative medicine offer alternatives. Surgery's invasive nature presents significant risks like infection, muscle tissue alteration, and prosthetic implant complications. Avoid the life-altering impact of surgery by considering regenerative therapies that prioritize natural healing and recovery.
