The basics
What PRP is
Platelet-rich plasma is made from a small sample of your own blood. A centrifuge separates and concentrates the platelets, which carry growth factors involved in tissue repair, and the concentrate is injected into the injured joint, tendon, or ligament.
Because PRP comes from your own blood, there is no risk of rejection. Evidence is strongest for knee osteoarthritis and some tendon conditions, and Dr. Morse explains what the research shows for your specific problem.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about prp injections with Dr. Morse.
How many PRP injections will I need?
Many patients have one to three injections, spaced weeks apart. Dr. Morse recommends a number based on the condition and how you respond.
How long does PRP take to work?
PRP works gradually. When it helps, improvement usually builds over several weeks to a few months, alongside rehab.
Does a PRP injection hurt?
Most patients feel pressure during the injection and soreness for a few days afterward. Dr. Morse explains what to expect and how to manage it.
What is the difference between PRP and cortisone?
Cortisone calms inflammation quickly but usually wears off, and repeated injections can affect cartilage and tendons over time. PRP works more slowly and is aimed at supporting the tissue's own repair.
Does insurance cover PRP?
Generally not. The evaluation and ultrasound may be billable depending on your plan, and the clinic can confirm before your appointment.
What treatments pair well with PRP?
When PRP is not enough, other orthobiologic injections are often the next option. Peptide therapy can support recovery after an injection, and ozone therapy is sometimes used alongside PRP for joint pain.
