PRP Injections, the revolutionary sports injury recovery treatment used to help Brazil's Neymar recover in time for the 2018 World Cup is now available from Action Sports Medicine of Long Island
Mineola, United States - June 23, 2018 /PressCable/ —
A revolutionary injury recovery treatment used to help Brazilian World Cup soccer star Neymar recover in record time from a partial fracture of an ankle bone is now available by appointment in Long Island NY.
Platelet Rich Plasma, more commonly referred to as PRP, is injected into inflamed or injured areas of the body and helps reduce the time taken to recover from the injury. PRP injections have been used to treat professional athletes with serious knee, shoulder and elbow injuries for some time, but they are not widely available for amateurs and weekend sports warriors like local golfers and tennis players. They are most suitable for tendon and muscle injuries and are effective for both new and chronic conditions.
In Neymar’s case, a metal bolt was inserted into the ankle to help draw the partially splintered bone sections together. Once the bone was set, PRP injections were used to reduce inflammation and help the bones knit together. The concentrated platelets in PRP are best known for their importance in clotting blood, but they also contain many proteins called growth factors, crucial to healing injuries. Neymar is playing in the 2018 World Cup just three months after sustaining the ankle injury.
Action Sports Medicine’s Chief Administrator Shon Butani said “PRP injections are going to be really useful to help treat many of the injuries presented by our patients today. They can be used to compliment other more traditional treatments like Physical Therapy to quickly get folks back to work and play and will likely be very useful to those suffering symptoms from injuries to the knees, and tendons of the leg, shoulder and arm.
