Long commutes, physical jobs, and staying active around Houston can grind on knees, shoulders, and tendons. If you’re not ready for surgery—or tired of repeat meds—Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) at NexGenEsis Healthcare – Jersey Village offers a biologic option to help you move with less pain

What PRP is

We draw a small tube of your blood, spin it to concentrate platelets and growth factors, and inject the PRP under image guidance into the painful joint or tendon. The goal: support tissue repair and dial down pain over time—especially for knee osteoarthritis and chronic tendinopathies (patellar, Achilles, tennis/golfer’s elbow, rotator cuff, plantar fasciitis).

Who it’s for

• Mild–moderate arthritis or stubborn tendon pain after PT/rest/meds
• People aiming to delay or avoid surgery and try a targeted, non-surgical route

What to expect

• Visit flow: evaluation → blood draw → on-site processing → ultrasound-guided injection (typically 30–60 minutes)
• Aftercare: temporary soreness 2–3 days; gradual activity build
• Timeline: improvements often build over 4–12 weeks; some plans use 1–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart

Why we pair it with a plan
PRP works best inside a broader program—targeted exercises, load management, sleep/nutrition basics—and, when appropriate, adjuncts like Class IV laser, ESWT, or A2M. Tools help; plans change outcomes.
