I did have PRP on the back and on the knee. Has worked very well. My back has been great for over 5 years and i do have prp on the knee every year. Saves me from doing TKR.

My PRP in knee helped greatly! I’m 75 and hope to do same healthy treatment annually for rest of my life. I understand it works for 80% of people and my injection cost $750. I know too many folks who’ve suffered for a year or more after knee replacement. So glad PRP was/is an option.
I will have the Prp September. I have been bone on bone I tried the injections. The Cortizone and this is my next step. I will try everything I can before total knee replacement. I am hoping it works.
@cobweb how many PRP’s did you do for your back or your knees. I did one PRP in my knee and 2024. And I felt like they just put a placebo in there no pain relief at all and I’m not even bone on bone

Thanks! Can you tell me if it took more than one injection to see results? It's not covered by my insurance and the cost is pretty high in my area.
