Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens the bones, making them prone to fractures even with minimal activities. People suffering from this condition can experience breaks and fractures in their spine, wrist and hip bone due to minor impacts. With effective treatment and lifestyle changes, patients can drastically reduce the effects of osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis Causes

• Osteoporosis is caused by the thinning of bones, with age as a major contributing factor.
• Our bones naturally lose calcium as we age, and they do not regenerate as they should. This makes them more fragile and prone to fractures.
• By understanding the root cause of osteoporosis, we can better prevent and manage it to maintain healthy bones.
• Calcium is a key ingredient in maintaining healthy bones and avoiding bone loss.
• Low estrogen levels in women after menopause can contribute to the development of osteoporosis as it causes a sharp decrease in calcium absorption.
• Men with low testosterone levels also have an increased risk of bone loss due to the same effect on calcium absorption.

Osteoporosis Symptoms

• With early bone loss detection, you can be one step ahead of the condition before it gets too serious.
• Monitor your height, posture, and bone fractures to identify any changes that could indicate an underlying condition.
• Be aware of spinal fractures as they may be silent and cause pain if left untreated.

Treating Osteoporosis

• Comprehensive assessment before starting treatment. Get a full picture of your current health status and age-related bone thinning risks.
• Develop a tailored plan to keep your bones strong and reduce the risk of fractures. Calcium and Vitamin D supplements combined with lifestyle changes can help you manage osteoporosis symptoms.
• Follow a healthy, balanced diet with foods rich in calcium such as dairy products, leafy greens and nuts.
• Incorporate light exercise such as walking or yoga to improve bone strength and keep them healthy.
• Hormone replacement therapy helps replace estrogen levels that have been depleted due to osteoporosis, helping reduce bone loss.
• Various medications can also be prescribed to help regulate bone turnover, replace needed nutrients and hormones as well as provide pain relief.

Stem Cell Therapy for Osteoporosis

Stem cell therapy can encourage the regeneration of new bone and connective tissues. This regenerative therapy manipulates stem cells to rebuild and strengthen bones. This actually decreases the risk of bone loss. Stem cell therapy could help reverse the effects of osteoporosis.

Fractures (e.g. Nonunions)

Understand how fractures occur and how to protect yourself against them. Learn the anatomy of bones and joints, as well as how they respond to various levels of stress. Identify risk factors that can increase your chances of suffering a fracture, such as age, lifestyle, and medical history. Discover the symptoms of a fracture and learn when to seek medical attention. Get the latest information on treatment options available for fractures.

Types of Fractures

• Open, Compound Fracture: A type of break that is more serious due to the bone penetrating and tearing through the skin. The bone may even be visible in the wound. Treatment typically involves setting and immobilizing the bone as well as providing antibiotics to prevent infection.
• Stable Fracture: A type of fracture where the two parts of the broken bone line up with each other, making it easier for the bones to heal. This type of fracture is less likely to cause further injury or damage.
• Transverse fractures occur when a bone is broken in two along a horizontal axis. These fractures often require orthopedic intervention to heal, as they can cause misalignments of the bones and other complications. Treatment typically includes immobilization with a cast or splint, as well as physical therapy.
• Comminuted fractures occur when the bone is shattered into several pieces and there are three or more break points. This type of fracture is often caused by high-impact trauma and can be one of the most difficult to treat, often requiring surgery.
• Oblique Fracture: A type of bone fracture where the bone breaks at an acute or obtuse angle. It is caused by a combination of torsional and compressive forces acting on the bone, resulting in a fracture line that does not follow the traditional straight line.
• An impacted fracture is a form of bone injury where two bone ends are knocked together, resulting in a buckle fracture that is most commonly found in arms. This type of fracture can be very painful and may require medical attention.
• Pathologic Fracture: A type of fracture that is caused by a weakened bone due to underlying diseases like cancer or osteoporosis. It can occur with minimal force or trauma to the affected area. Early diagnosis and treatment is important as it can help reduce the risk of further complications.

Signs of a Fracture

• Be aware of swelling and bruising on the affected area, as these are the first signs of a possible fracture.
• In some cases, the area could become deformed if not treated immediately.
• Pain is usually a reliable indicator of a fracture; it usually worsens when pressure is applied or when moving.
• Loss of function is a key indicator of a fracture, which can leave the affected limb or area unable to be used.
• Open fractures are easily identifiable as the broken bone may protrude through the skin.

Complications Brought About By Fractures

• Fractures come with a range of possible complications, from local to systemic. Local complications can include vascular injury, wound infections, visceral injury and tissue damage. Systemic complications that may arise are shock, thromboembolism, pneumonia and the worsening of an already existing disease.
• Delayed recovery, joint stiffness, contractures, malunion and nonunion can occur months after the fracture.
• Surgery may be necessary to correct a nonunion fracture if it does not heal on its own.
• Stem cell therapy may offer a solution by helping the fracture heal more quickly and effectively.

Stem Cell Therapy for Fractures

• Stem cell therapy has been scientifically proven to be highly effective in treating nonunion fractures, which are fractures that do not heal even after receiving standard medical treatment.
• Studies conducted at the 93rd Annual Endocrine Society Meeting and Molecular Therapy have presented evidence on the efficacy of stem cells in speeding up recovery from broken bones.
• Stem cells enhanced with bone regenerative hormones could help repair fractured bones that refuse to heal normally.
• A revolutionary new therapy that provides the potential to replace or supplement traditional surgery, with the potential to significantly reduce recovery time and cost. Utilizing stem cells sourced from the patient, this therapy is a safe and effective alternative that helps to heal fractures without resorting to surgery.

Cartilage Defects

Cartilage defects occur in the knee joint due to trauma or injury, as well as conditions like osteonecrosis or osteochondritis. These defects are not the same as arthritis and can cause severe pain and limited range of motion if left untreated. In order to prevent further damage, it is important to seek medical treatment early on, so that any cartilage defect can be adequately addressed. Cartilage defects can lead to ligament and meniscal injuries, especially in people with arthritis. Traditional treatments for these issues are often not viable due to their increased risk of causing further harm. To address this, innovative new treatments leveraging the latest medical breakthroughs have been developed to offer an effective solution for those in need.

Identifying Cartilage Defects

• Recognize the varying symptoms of cartilage damage, ranging from pain and swelling to joint locking.
• Be aware of the risk of muscle wastage and weakening due to cartilage injury.
• Take preventive measures to keep your joints functioning properly and reduce the risk of cartilage damage.
• Advanced scanning techniques to precisely identify cartilage damage.
• MRI and X-ray scans may not always reveal the injury, but our technology can detect even subtle changes in the knee cartilage.
• Early diagnosis of cartilage damage reduces the risk of irreversible damage and associated complications.
• Accurate diagnosis of cartilage defects in their early stages is made possible with advanced imaging tools.
• Arthroscopy is the gold standard when it comes to identifying the presence of cartilage defects, providing the highest accuracy and reliability.
• Cartilage defects are categorized into four grades according to their severity, ranging from Grade 0 (healthy and normal cartilage) to Grade 4 (torn cartilage exposing the underlying bone).
• Grade 1 defects present with blisters and soft spots, while Grade 2 have visible minor tears.
• Grade 3 cartilage defects frequently present as lesions and deep crevices, affecting about 50% of the cartilage.
• The worst type of defect is grade 4, where the cartilage is torn to an extent that exposes the underlying bone.
• Accurately measure the size of cartilage defects to determine their extent, with small defects being less than two centimeters squared.
• The location of the defect is also an important factor, as it can influence the repair options available.

Treatment Options for Cartilage Defects

• Start with conservative treatments to treat cartilage defects such as OTC/prescription medication, physical therapy and cortisone injections.
• Introduce more advanced treatments like microfracture which stimulates the cartilage’s growth to repair damaged areas.
• Cartilage transfer is a procedure where healthy cartilage is removed and replaced in the damaged area to aid in the healing process. Cartilage implantation is an innovative treatment option where lab-produced cartilage cells are implanted into the joint to help repair and regenerate tissue. Both methods have been proven to be successful for some patients.

Stem Cell Therapy for Cartilage Defects

• Stem cell therapy is a potential treatment for repairing cartilage defects like those found in osteoarthritis and knee articular cartilage defects.
• Recent studies conducted by the Hospital for Special Surgery show that Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy could be effective in helping to repair moderate knee arthritis due to cartilage degradation in more than three fourths of patients.
• While this treatment is still experimental, it has shown great promise in helping to improve the quality of cartilage in patients with these types of conditions.
• An animal study recently published in Stem Cells shows promising results for the injection of stem cells into knees with large cartilage defects.
• These results, when seen in conjunction with the HSS study, indicate that patients may be able to avoid surgery and have their pain relieved and cartilage restored not only for cartilage defects of the knee but also other extremity joints such as hips, shoulders, ankles, wrists and elbows.

Degenerative Disc Disease

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is not a disease, but rather an umbrella term describing certain changes in the spinal discs. DDD usually occurs in the cervical and lumbar regions of the spine, although any area can be affected. Contrary to its name, DDD is not degenerative; it is actually a condition that can improve with appropriate treatments such as physical therapy or medications. With age, discs naturally degenerate and this process is called degenerative disc disease. Although the condition can worsen over time, usually it gets better with time and proper treatment. It’s important to remember that not all cases of disc degeneration cause back pain or other symptoms and that the degree of degeneration varies greatly from person to person.

Causes of Degenerative Disc Disease

• Degenerative disc disease is caused by a variety of factors, including reduced disc fluid which can lead to narrower, thinner discs and cracks and tears on the annulus or capsule.
• This can reduce flexibility in the spinal cord and create an increased risk of developing this condition.
• Disc nucleus is prone to pour out or even rapture into fragments due to cracks caused by age or injury.
• Age-related degeneration can cause disc damage and lead to disc bulging or rupture.
• Traumatic accidents may also be responsible for degenerative disc disease.
• Lower back pain is one of the most common symptoms of degenerative disc disease. It may begin as a mild ache but can become severe and more frequent over time. This pain is usually heightened when seated and can be aggravated by bending, lifting items, and twisting.

Degenerative Disc Disease: Treatment Options

• Our treatment plan for degenerative disc disease offers a range of options, from mild to more extensive measures. We assess the severity of your condition and suggest the best approach that works for your needs.
• Physical therapy and exercise provide relief from pain and pressure, allowing discs to receive vital nutrients.
• Heat and ice can reduce inflammation and stimulate blood flow to promote natural healing.
• Combined, these methods create a comprehensive approach to treating disc problems and relieving pain.
• A wide range of medications available to help alleviate back pain, such as prescription drugs and epidural steroid injections
• Chiropractic manual manipulation can reduce pressure on the nerves and back tissue, providing relief from pain
• Surgery may be recommended as a last resort for certain cases of chronic or severe back pain.

Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease

• Stem cell research is providing a promising avenue for managing degenerative disc disease. This treatment option has already been made available and can enable reversal of the aging process that happens in discs.
• Stem cells have the potential to work in two directions – to prevent further degeneration and renew the affected disc too. Transplanted stem cells can transition into disc cells, further transforming into new disc tissue, thus reversing damage.
