Peripheral neuropathy is a condition caused by nerve damage in the hands, feet, and extremities, leading to chronic pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or burning sensations. This condition can be debilitating, making it difficult to walk, grasp objects, or perform everyday activities. It is often associated with diabetes, infections, trauma, chemotherapy, or autoimmune disorders.
Studies estimate that over 20 million Americans suffer from peripheral neuropathy, with diabetes being the leading cause. Traditional treatments focus on managing symptoms with medications, but regenerative medicine offers a breakthrough approach to healing damaged nerves and restoring function naturally.
“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.”
How Regenerative Medicine Supports Nerve Regeneration
Unlike conventional treatments that only mask pain, regenerative medicine works by stimulating the body’s own repair mechanisms to heal damaged nerves. At OrthoGen Health, we use advanced biologic therapies such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and exosome therapy to promote nerve regeneration and long-term pain relief.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP is derived from a patient’s own blood and contains growth factors that accelerate tissue healing and reduce inflammation. When injected near damaged nerves, PRP helps stimulate nerve repair and improve function.
Exosome Therapy
Exosomes are small cellular messengers that enhance communication between cells, playing a vital role in reducing nerve inflammation and supporting nerve regrowth. They deliver essential proteins and growth factors directly to injured nerves.
Research shows that PRP therapy has been effective in improving nerve function and reducing pain in patients with peripheral neuropathy, with studies reporting up to 60% pain relief after a series of treatments.
Regenerative Medicine for Non-Surgical Nerve Pain Relief
Peripheral neuropathy can make daily life challenging, but regenerative treatments offer minimally invasive, safe, and effective options that support nerve healing rather than just masking discomfort. Our personalized treatments at OrthoGen Health are designed to help patients in San Jose and Los Gatos regain mobility, function, and quality of life.
