Sports specialist Dr. Michael Baria discusses Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) procedures and the research taking place to determine how to perfect the treatment and when it is appropriate for patients to return to their activities or sport safely. 

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an orthobiologic treatment option that is more natural than many conventional remedies and have been proven highly effective in treating osteoarthritis and tendinopathy (or tendinitis) when applied in the correct setting.

These natural remedies work with your body to improve symptoms and potentially restore cartilage and tendon structure.
