Many people around the world are suffering from chronic pain. The pain medications available just provide the temporary solution to the issue and not the long-term cure to these conditions. Moreover, these medications have severe side effects including drowsiness, constipation, liver damage, and even addiction in some cases.
It is proven that chronic pain can be help with stemcell treatment.

What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
While living with chronic pain is nearly impossible, we need a treatment that works better. Stem cell therapy is a regenerative treatment. It helps reduce inflammation by repairing the damaged cells and regulating your immune system. This phenomenon of stem cell therapy has made it the most successful treatment option for a myriad of health conditions.
Stem cell therapy is beneficial in treating autoimmune, inflammation, neurological and orthopedic conditions, Parkinson’s, traumatic injuries, and much more. Though they don’t guarantee a cure for these diseases, you can be sure that they help to mitigate the symptoms and delay the worsening of the disease. Thus, it gives you an improved quality of life.
From Where We Get Stem Cells?
There are two main types of stem cells: hematopoietic and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs). Hematopoietic are immature blood cells that are found in the peripheral blood and the bone marrow. They can develop into any type of blood cell including white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.
Every adult has MSCs throughout their body including bone marrow, fat tissue, and muscle tissue. When compared to embryonic stem cells, MSCs have limited self-renewal capabilities. They can differentiate into bone cells, cartilage cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, and stromal cells.
One of the major benefits of MSCs is that they have a low risk of immune rejection. MSCs are used in treating autoimmune diseases, degenerative neurological conditions, joint pain, spinal cord injuries, and more. As a regenerative treatment, it has the potential to use our body’s ability to cure itself and generate healthy cells to mitigate the health condition.
Stem Cell Therapy for Joint Pain
The power of stem cells to develop into an entire human body has made it an innovative treatment for joint pain and it is receiving wide approval for its effectiveness and safety. Since it boosts the ability of your body in treating on its own, your body can effectively restructure and rebuild the tissues that are damaged by aging, overuse, disease, and injury.
Administration of Stem Cells
Medical professionals source stem cells either from autologous sources or from matched donors. After some process, they re-infuse the viable number of stem cells into the patient’s body either by local administration or intravenous administration.
In the local administration mode, cells are infused directly into the affected area and in intravenous mode, cells are infused through the veins, and this ensures that a maximum number of cells are reaching the affected area. Each method of administration can have a different effect. So, talk to your doctor before considering a method.
