What Is the Treatment Process Like?

The treatment process for stem cell therapy in podiatry begins with a thorough evaluation of the affected area. This may include imaging tests such as x-rays, MRIs, and ultrasounds to get a better look at the injury or medical condition. Once the diagnosis is made, your podiatrist will discuss treatment options with you, including stem cell therapy if it is appropriate.

If you decide to proceed with stem cell therapy, a sample of your own fat or bone marrow will be taken. This will be processed in order to isolate and concentrate the stem cells from other cell types. These concentrated cells will then be injected into the affected area using a needle or syringe.

In most cases, multiple injections may be needed in order to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. After treatment, your podiatrist will recommend steps to take for recovery and follow-up care. Following these instructions carefully is the key to receiving the maximum possible benefit from your stem cell treatments.

Am I a Good Candidate for Stem Cell Therapy?

In order to determine if you are a good candidate for this type of therapy, it is important to speak with your podiatrist. They can evaluate your condition and discuss the benefits, risks, and expected outcomes of stem cell therapy in light of your individual needs.
