When a fracture will not heal, people are typically left with two options.
One is bone grafting, the other is surgery.
Bone grafts can result in gaps between fracture edges, and often require surgery to relocate bone from other places in the body to fill in the spaces. Bone can come from the patient or a cadaver. But healthy bone isn’t always available, and surgeries can lead to other complications.
This is where Regenerative Therapy comes in as an alternative treatment option that continues to be proven successful, not only by scientist and researchers, but also by doctors who utilize this treatment for a variety of conditions, including for treatment of Non-Union Fractures.
Patients suffering from pain and fractures can be at risk of depending too heavily on regular medications to relieve their pain. However, any temporary relief does not come from tackling the cause of pain. Pain medications also have undesired side effects, and some of those can be serious. Regenerative Therapy on the other hand and by means of several protocols will ultimately help initiate the self-healing cycle in the injured part of the body, the end result then is pain relief.
