Is Stem Cell Therapy Safe?
While stem cell therapy shows promise, it is still a relatively new and evolving field. The safety and efficacy of stem cell treatments for pain management depend on the source of the stem cells, the method of delivery, and the condition being treated. Most stem cell therapies for pain management are minimally invasive, involving injections directly into the affected area, such as the joint or spine.
Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs): These stem cells are obtained from fat tissue and have regenerative properties similar to MSCs. They can be injected directly into the affected joint to promote cartilage growth and reduce inflammation
Reducing Inflammation
Inflammation is a key factor in both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Inflammation in the joints can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness, making movement difficult. Stem cells possess natural anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce swelling and inflammation in the affected areas.
