Tendonitis and bursitis are leading causes of joint and soft tissue pain, affecting millions of people each year. Studies show that tendon-related injuries account for nearly 30% of all musculoskeletal conditions seen by physicians. These conditions occur when tendons or bursae (fluid-filled sacs that cushion joints) become inflamed due to overuse, repetitive strain, or injury, resulting in pain, stiffness, and restricted movement.
At OrthoGen Health, we provide non-surgical regenerative medicine therapies to reduce inflammation, repair damaged tissues, and restore joint function naturally. Our advanced treatments, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP), exosomes, and stem cell therapy, offer long-term relief without the need for steroids or 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.”
How Regenerative Medicine Safely Heals Soft Tissue Damage
Traditional treatments for tendonitis and bursitis, such as cortisone injections, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications, may provide temporary relief but fail to repair the damaged structures. Regenerative medicine stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms to repair inflamed tendons and bursae from within.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP delivers high concentrations of healing growth factors, reducing inflammation and promoting the repair of damaged tendons.
Exosome Therapy
Exosomes carry anti-inflammatory and regenerative signals, helping injured tissues heal faster.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells assist in new tissue formation and cellular repair, improving flexibility and function.
Biologic Injections
These injections enhance joint lubrication, reduce pain, and prevent further tendon and bursa damage.
Studies indicate that PRP therapy is highly effective for conditions like rotator cuff tendonitis and trochanteric bursitis, reducing pain and restoring mobility.
Symptoms & Causes of Tendonitis & Bursitis
Tendonitis and bursitis often develop due to repetitive movements, sudden injuries, or prolonged pressure on joints. Symptoms may include:
- Pain and tenderness around the affected joint
- Swelling or warmth over the tendon or bursa
- Stiffness and reduced range of motion
- Worsening discomfort with movement or activity
- Aching pain that lingers even at rest
Frequently Asked Questions About Regenerative Treatment for Tendonitis & Bursitis
-
Yes, PRP, exosomes, and stem cell therapy promote true tissue healing, rather than just masking symptoms.
