NextGen Medical provides industry-leading expertise and therapies that utilize the potential of orthobiologics.
Do you wake up every day and find yourself rolling out of bed, instead of sitting up like you used to? Are you plagued with aching joints and a back that seems to hurt every single day? The CDC estimates that 50 million American adults suffer from some type of chronic pain. The daily dose of NSAIDs, the limited mobility, the constant aches and pains, and the need to consistently ice and wrap your sore and aching joints easily become routine.
After a certain point in time, you forget what it felt like to not be in pain. However, you don’t need to continue living like this. You have an option that can help you. Nextgen offers another option – Orthobiologics – a practice that allows your body to help itself.
How Do Orthobiologics Work?
When you’re in pain, you might be looking for the easiest way out – but is it the best solution? It’s easy to resort to pain medication to relieve your pain. Or, in more serious cases, your first approach may be resorting to surgery. However, orthobiologics is creating an opportunity for physicians to help injured people minimally-invasively, with little to no downtime. These therapies are giving patients an alternate way to improve their overall quality of life.
Orthobiologics is an innovative medical field that uses substances from your own body to rejuvenate, restore, and repair injured muscles, ligaments, and cartilage. These therapies are natural, minimally invasive, and effective at helping your pain and getting you back on your feet.
Often, these therapies involve a simple extraction of blood or bone marrow that is activated. Platelets in the blood are spun in a centrifuge to activate the growth factors from your own body. The activated substance is then injected into an injury site to enhance your body’s own potential to help itself, targeting wounded joints, muscles, and tendons.
Why Should I Choose Orthobiologics Over Traditional Medicine?
Orthobiologics offers an innovative option for patients without resorting to invasive surgeries. Compared to traditional therapies, there is minimal risk of complications or side effects. NSAIDs are a common recommendation for pain but come with a long list of possible complications. For example, some complications include an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and gastrointestinal bleeding.
Additionally, there are always risks with surgery. As an example, let’s discuss meniscus tears. Often, a patient diagnosed with a meniscus tear is immediately slated for surgery. However, surgery can cause additional degeneration in the joint. This then increases your potential for additional surgery. With regenerative medicine, the risk of further degeneration of the joint is non-existent. Additionally, orthobiologic procedures utilize your body’s own recuperative capacity, making a chance of rejection impossible as compared to joint replacement surgery.
