Post-Surgical Hip Pain Treatment in Pittsburgh with Regenexx PRP and BMC Therapy
After hip surgery, whether it’s a hip replacement, labral tear repair, or a hip fracture surgery, it’s not uncommon to experience lingering pain or discomfort. While surgery can address the immediate issue, some patients continue to experience post-surgical hip pain, which can be caused by inflammation, scar tissue, or incomplete tissue healing. If you're dealing with persistent hip pain after surgery, Regenexx Pittsburgh offers advanced regenerative treatments using PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and BMC (Bone Marrow Concentrate) therapy. These therapies focus on healing the affected tissues, reducing inflammation, and restoring hip function naturally—without the need for additional surgery.
What is Post-Surgical Hip Pain?
Post-surgical hip pain occurs when discomfort continues after undergoing a hip surgery procedure, such as a hip replacement, labral repair, or hip fracture surgery. Some pain following surgery is natural as the body heals, but chronic pain can result from issues such as scar tissue buildup, inflammation, joint instability, or soft tissue healing problems.
Common Causes of Post-Surgical Hip Pain:
Scar Tissue
Inflammation
Joint Impingement or Instability
Symptoms of Post-Surgical Hip Pain:
- Ongoing or increasing pain around the hip joint after surgery
- Limited mobility or stiffness in the hip joint
- Pain that worsens with activity or weight-bearing
- Swelling or inflammation around the surgical site
- Discomfort when lying down or trying to sit for extended periods
Why Choose Regenexx for Post-Surgical Hip Pain Treatment?
At Regenexx Pittsburgh, we specialize in non-surgical, regenerative therapies such as PRP and BMC that use your body’s own cells to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and restore joint function. Unlike traditional pain management methods that rely on medication or additional surgeries, our therapies address the root causes of pain, working to heal tissues naturally and provide long-term relief.
Minimally Invasive
Both PRP and BMC therapies are administered through small, simple injections, meaning no additional surgery and minimal downtime.
Natural Healing
These treatments use your body’s own growth factors or stem cells to repair damaged tissue and promote natural healing, without relying on synthetic drugs or implants.
Long-Term Relief
Rather than masking the pain, PRP and BMC therapies work to regenerate tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore normal joint function, offering lasting pain relief.
Expert Care
Dr. Jesse Sally, Dr. Paul Lieber, and Dr. Marc Adelsheimer have years of experience in treating post-surgical hip pain with regenerative therapies, ensuring you receive the best care possible.
How Regenexx PRP and BMC Therapy Works for Post-Surgical Hip Pain
PRP and BMC therapies work by stimulating your body’s natural healing processes to repair damaged tissues and reduce inflammation. Here’s how each treatment can help alleviate post-surgical hip pain:
01
Consultation and Assessment
The first step is a comprehensive consultation where we evaluate your symptoms, surgical history, and current condition. We may use imaging such as X-rays or MRIs to determine the extent of healing in the hip and identify the source of ongoing pain or dysfunction.
02
Harvesting PRP or BMC
Bone marrow is extracted from your pelvis, processed to isolate stem cells and growth factors, and injected with precision into the damaged areas. Both procedures are performed under image guidance to ensure accurate targeting of the hip joint and surrounding tissues.
- PRP Therapy: A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets, which contain powerful growth factors that promote tissue healing.
- BMC Therapy: Bone marrow is harvested from your hip bone using a needle. This marrow is rich in stem cells, growth factors, and other regenerative cells that help repair damaged tissues and encourage healing.
03
Injection into the Affected Area
Once prepared, the PRP or BMC is injected directly into the hip joint or the surrounding tissues, such as muscles, ligaments, or tendons, where healing is needed most. This injection stimulates the healing process, reduces inflammation, and helps regenerate damaged tissues.
04
Recovery Process
After the procedure, you can expect minimal downtime. Most patients feel mild soreness around the injection site, but you can typically return to light activities within a few days. We recommend avoiding high-impact activities for a few weeks to allow tissues to heal properly. Our team will provide specific aftercare instructions to maximize healing and ensure optimal results.
