I had PRP for my hip but the injection went into my groin area.

Has anyone else found that after 1 1/2 years the PRP doesn’t last?

@tova do you have to administer those injections yourself, or do you get a nurse to do it?

@tova Can you explain the title you chose for this discussion? It implies something was done incorrectly.
If you are asking if PRP therapy is permanent or time-limited, and you got 1 1/2 years of relief, you are ahead of the average - according to my ortho, if PRP works for you (not a guarantee) the results typically last up to one year.

Could you please describe more detailed from what Syndrom or hip problems you are suffering? I am suffering since April of Gluteal Tendinopathy and I was reading about PRP . Thank you.
