Posts for tag: A-Rod
A-Rod has ventured into the world of ‘Orthobiologics’. In December of 2011 he flew to Germany where his knee and shoulder were treated with PRP (Platlet-rich plasma).
Orthobiologics is cutting edge technology which augments the body’s healing potential and in the case of PRP, it allows for healing proteins known as growth factors to aid in the repair process. This treatment initially originated in the dental community where it was used with mandibular reconstruction. The process for PRP is fairly simple where a small sample of blood is withdrawn from the patient, placed into a centrifuge and separated into its components. The platelets are then injected into the site of injury. Other notable athletes who have used PRP include Tiger Woods and Cliff Lee.
PRP has been used to treat a variety of foot and ankle pathology including but not limited to plantar fasciitis (heel pain), peroneal and Achilles tendonopathy. Additional options include but are not limited to ankle bracing, custom orthotics, physical therapy, cross-training, activity modification and/or surgical intervention. The treatment plans for the particular problem are based on the pathology, diagnosis and clinical presentation of the patient.
From the professional athlete to the weekend warrior, our goal is to keep you on your feet at Atlantic Foot and Ankle Associates. With four offices conveniently located in Palm Coast, Daytona Beach, Port Orange, and Orange City, Florida, we are able to provide a wide variety of both conservative and surgical options to keep you pain free.
