PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is an injection prepared from your own blood, using the platelets and growth factors it contains to support tissue repair. It is commonly considered for chronic tendinopathy, ligament injuries and mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis. Whether PRP is appropriate for you must be determined by a physician after an in-person evaluation.

An ultrasound-guided injection uses real-time imaging to confirm the needle-tip position. Compared with landmark-based (blind) injections, it can reach the target tissue more precisely and helps avoid nearby nerves and vessels. For tendon, ligament and intra-articular injections common in sports medicine, image guidance lets the physician adjust the path and depth to the individual lesion.
Return-to-sport timing depends on the type of injury and individual recovery, not on time alone. The sports medicine approach evaluates four dimensions step by step — symptom resolution, functional recovery, sport-specific testing and psychological readiness — supported where needed by quantitative tools such as force-plate analysis and balance testing.
