Chronic inflammation and joint degeneration are leading causes of persistent pain and mobility loss, affecting millions of people worldwide. Studies estimate that more than 54 million adults in the U.S. suffer from arthritis-related joint degeneration, with chronic inflammation playing a key role in disease progression. When left untreated, ongoing joint deterioration can lead to reduced function, stiffness, and an increased risk of disability.
At OrthoGen Health, we provide cutting-edge regenerative medicine therapies to help slow joint degeneration, reduce inflammation, and support long-term mobility. Our treatments, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP), exosomes, and stem cell therapy, focus on healing damaged tissue and preserving joint integrity without surgery.
“Someone referred me to this place because i had a very bad knee pain which multiple other doctors i visited, told me have to have an open surgery but Dr.James told me can do PRP which is much easier and safer. I thought it worth trying it. After almost 2 years, i still have no pain and i got back to normal life. I am so glad listen to Dr, James and for your info i think he has one of the highest certificates that only a few doctors in the US have it.
He is so kind and acknowledgeable and i definitely recommend anyone who has joint pain before letting others to have any open surgeries which obviously they want nothing but making money.Thanks you for making the life enjoyable for me again.”
Addressing Chronic Inflammation at the Source
Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury or disease, but when it becomes chronic, it destroys healthy tissue and accelerates joint damage. Conventional treatments such as pain relievers, steroids, and anti-inflammatory drugs may help with symptoms, but they do not stop the underlying degenerative process. Regenerative medicine harnesses the body’s own healing mechanisms to combat chronic inflammation and protect joint structures.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP is packed with healing growth factors that repair tissue, enhance circulation, and calm excessive inflammation.
Exosome Therapy
Exosomes improve cellular communication, regulating immune responses and reducing chronic joint inflammation.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells stimulate cartilage regeneration and support long-term joint health by replacing damaged cells.
Biologic Injections
These treatments provide powerful anti-inflammatory benefits, helping joints recover while preventing further wear and tear.
Research shows that PRP and stem cell therapy can help patients with chronic joint conditions experience improved mobility, reduced pain, and slowed disease progression, offering a natural alternative to joint surgery.
Signs Your Joints Are Suffering from Chronic Degeneration
Joint degeneration develops over time, often worsening with age or repetitive stress. Common symptoms include:
- Frequent joint pain that worsens with movement
- Morning stiffness lasting more than 30 minutes
- Swelling or tenderness in the affected joints
- A clicking or grinding sensation during movement
- Reduced range of motion and flexibility
