Benefits of
Nonsurgical Tendon & Ligament Treatments
Regenerative tendon and ligament pain treatments offer the benefits of surgery without a hospital stay, loss of work, added pain, risk of complications, and a lengthy recovery.
Less Invasive
Tendon or ligament surgery requires general anesthesia and invasive surgery. Regenerative medicine treatments for tendon or ligament pain are noninvasive.
Faster Recovery
Tendon or ligament surgery involves recovery time. You will probably need prescription pain relief for a few days. You may use a sling, a splint, a cast, a boot, or a walker for a time, depending on the type of surgery you have. You will need to miss work and limit your activities. With regenerative medicine, none of this is necessary.

- Additional pain
- Excessive bleeding
- Blood clots
