WHAT IS A LIGAMENT
INJURY?
Ligaments are tough, flexible fibrous tissue
cords that link bones and give support for
joints. An uncomfortable stretch or twist
can produce a strain injury, even though
ligaments are quite strong. They can be
torn with enough force, which is the most
serious ligament injury.
STRAINS VS. SPRAINS
• Strains – Strains are a twist,
pull or tear of a muscle or
tendon, commonly referred to
as soft tissue. Tendons are the
cords of tissue that connect
muscles to bones.
• Sprains – Sprains are a stretch
or tear of a ligament.
COMMON TYPES OF
LIGAMENT INJURIES
• Knee Ligament injuries
• Elbow Ligament Injuries
• Shoulder Ligament Injuries
• Thumb ligament injuries
• Sprained Ankle
SYMPTOMS OF A
LIGAMENT INJURY
• Inability to move or put weight on the
joint without pain
• Pain to the area, often sudden and
severe
• Swelling to the area of the injury
• A loud pop or snapping sound at the
time of the injury
• Spasms in the muscles surrounding the
injury
• Looseness of the joint
COMMON CAUSES OF
LIGAMENT INJURIES
Common causes of ligament injuries
are twisting body parts or hard or
awkward landings.
Injuries often happen when ligaments
are stretched fully and then encounter
some form of impact or trauma.
HOW IS A LIGAMENT
INJURY DIAGNOSED?
• X-ray
• MRI
• Arthroscopy
HOW IS A KNEE
LIGAMENT INJURY
TREATED?
• Muscle-strengthening exercises
• Protective knee brace
• Ice pack to ease swelling
• Pain medicine
STEM CELL THERAPY
FOR LIGAMENT INJURIES
From acute injuries to damage from
chronic wear and tear or disease, stem
cell therapy helps your body heal itself.
Stem cell therapy can help heal
ligament, tendon or muscle injuries
such as in the rotator cuff or Achilles
tendon.
It also helps repair chronic,
degenerative arthritis where the
cartilage in the joint is worn away.

Stem Cell Therapy: A Breakthrough For Ligament Injuries - Dr. David Greene R3 Stem Cell

  • 1. S T E M C E L L T H E R A P Y F O R L I G A M E N T I N J U R I E S PRESENTED BY: Dr. David Greene
  • 2. WHAT IS A LIGAMENT INJURY? Ligaments are tough, flexible fibrous tissue cords that link bones and give support for joints. An uncomfortable stretch or twist can produce a strain injury, even though ligaments are quite strong. They can be torn with enough force, which is the most serious ligament injury.
  • 3. STRAINS VS. SPRAINS • Strains – Strains are a twist, pull or tear of a muscle or tendon, commonly referred to as soft tissue. Tendons are the cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones. • Sprains – Sprains are a stretch or tear of a ligament.
  • 4. COMMON TYPES OF LIGAMENT INJURIES • Knee Ligament injuries • Elbow Ligament Injuries • Shoulder Ligament Injuries • Thumb ligament injuries • Sprained Ankle
  • 5. SYMPTOMS OF A LIGAMENT INJURY • Inability to move or put weight on the joint without pain • Pain to the area, often sudden and severe • Swelling to the area of the injury • A loud pop or snapping sound at the time of the injury • Spasms in the muscles surrounding the injury • Looseness of the joint
  • 6. COMMON CAUSES OF LIGAMENT INJURIES Common causes of ligament injuries are twisting body parts or hard or awkward landings. Injuries often happen when ligaments are stretched fully and then encounter some form of impact or trauma.
  • 7. HOW IS A LIGAMENT INJURY DIAGNOSED? • X-ray • MRI • Arthroscopy
  • 8. HOW IS A KNEE LIGAMENT INJURY TREATED? • Muscle-strengthening exercises • Protective knee brace • Ice pack to ease swelling • Pain medicine
  • 9. STEM CELL THERAPY FOR LIGAMENT INJURIES From acute injuries to damage from chronic wear and tear or disease, stem cell therapy helps your body heal itself. Stem cell therapy can help heal ligament, tendon or muscle injuries such as in the rotator cuff or Achilles tendon. It also helps repair chronic, degenerative arthritis where the cartilage in the joint is worn away.
