LoL!

I was just curious, because it's been gaining acceptance outside sports injury medicine. It used to be used just in sports medicine and by integrative physicians. It's one of only a few in that category of injectables that is offering hope of long term healing.
I'm glad you are better.



The two people I know that did PRP, weren’t that happy. Both about 50,, it worked for awhile and then they needed to repeat it, at their expense , in a few months.

From what I’ve read, PRP works best on young people and works best on tennis elbows.
