Chronic pain is a medical issue that has a serious impact on the sufferers’ quality of life.
Any pain that lasts for more than three months, without resolution or improvement despite medical therapy, can be described as chronic.
This is a common condition; in 2018, it was reported that about 50 million people in the United States – that’s almost one-fifth of the population – were suffering with chronic pain. As people are living longer, so will the prevalence of chronic pain.
Stemwell’s stem cell therapies for chronic pain relief can make a significant difference. Many Stemwell patients who have undergone stem cell therapy for chronic pain have reported an improvement in their condition.
Stemwell’s stem cell therapies for chronic pain sufferers make a difference to their quality of life. Stemwell’s therapies represent an option that many people struggling with debilitating and long-lasting conditions explore.
Why Stem Cell Therapy for Chronic Pain is a Viable Option
Traditional medication for chronic pain can have a variety of side-effects. In general, these medications may lead to drowsiness, constipation, or damage to your stomach or liver.
There is also a risk, especially if the medications, i.e., opioids, are taken for a long period of time, that you may become addicted to these medications.
By opting for stem cell therapy for chronic pain, you may see an improvement in the pain. This is particularly relevant for people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and tendinitis.
How Stem Cell Therapy for Chronic Pain Works
Stem cells support decreased inflammation, your body’s immune system, and healthy tissue repair in an area affected by chronic pain.
At Stemwell, we use umbilical cord stem cells that have been ethically sourced from healthy donors. These stem cells may be injected into the painful area (targeted stem cell therapy), and/or applied intravenously. They can then get to work by signalling your body to heal, supporting a decrease in chronic pain.
Umbilical cord stem cells are undifferentiated cells that signal the body to repair, regenerate, and heal. By introducing them into a targeted area that is causing you chronic pain, or through an intravenous infusion, they can alleviate your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
