Fibrin Discseel Procedure Demonstrates Long-Term Back Pain and Sciatica Relief Through Disc Healing — 3-Year Study Results
Study:A landmark study published in Pain Physician (Pauza et al., 2024) evaluated 827 patients with chronic low back pain lasting over six months (average duration 11 years). All patients had failed at least four prior invasive treatments, such as epidural or facet steroid injections, PRP or stem cell therapy, radiofrequency ablation, and even spinal surgery, […]
PRP is Better Than Steroids for Rotator Cuff Tears —Providing Pain Relief and Functional Improvement
Study:A randomized controlled trial (Thepsoparn et al., 2021) compared PRP to steroid injections in 31 patients with partial-thickness rotator cuff tears who had failed months of conservative therapy. Patients were randomized to receive an ultrasound-guided injection of either PRP into the tendon tear or corticosteroids into the subacromial bursa (it is contraindicated to inject steroids […]
PRP Can Heal Rotator Cuff Tears — Proven by MRI to Promote True Tendon Healing Study
A recent randomized controlled trial (Tanpowpong et al., 2023) investigated 29 patients with symptomatic partial-thickness tears of the supraspinatus tendon who had failed ≥3 months of conservative treatment. Participants were randomized to receive either an ultrasound-guided PRP injection into the tear or a steroid injection into the subacromial space. The tear size was evaluated with […]
Discogenic Back Pain from Leaky Discs and the Fibrin Glue Solution
Article at a Glance: Spinal injuries can disrupt the collagen fibers in the annulus, leading to annular tears and disc degeneration. Injured and painful spinal discs contain elevated inflammatory cytokines, which drive discogenic pain and accelerate degeneration. Leaky Disc Syndrome occurs when annular tears allow inflammatory proteins to leak out, triggering chronic pain and inflammation. […]
