Stem Cell Treatments for Ankles
Stem Cell Treatments for Ankles
If you’re suffering from constant pain in your ankles, swelling, and lack of ankle mobility, you may have ankle osteoarthritis. Ankle osteoarthritis affects approximately 1% of the population and makes up 2-4% of all general osteoarthritis patients. This debilitating condition can make it difficult for you to carry out simple tasks at home, or get through the day without feeling severe pain. Fortunately, stem cell treatments for ankles are a reliable and effective approach to start relieving your pain and staying active.
Are you looking for a minimally invasive way to find relief for your ankle osteoarthritis, or an alternative to surgery? If so, then you can opt for stem cell therapy to heal the root of your pain and get you on the road to recovery.

What is Ankle Osteoarthritis?
Ankle osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage in your ankle joint begins to break down. Your cartilage may break down due to a serious injury, or an underlying health condition. Sometimes infections can also cause your ankle cartilage to break down.
If you feel consistent pain in your ankles, or suspect you may have ankle osteoarthritis, you should go in for a medical checkup right away. Your doctor may recommend surgery if medication and ankle bracing fail to treat your pain. Based on how serious the damage is, you may have to undergo a total ankle replacement. This procedure has a risk of failure, comes with many other side effects, and is followed by a long recovery downtime.
At GIOSTAR Chicago, we offer safe and highly effective alternatives to surgery. Our range of regenerative therapies is designed to optimize your body’s natural method of healing. One of our most popular therapies for ankle osteoarthritis is stem cell therapy.

Stem Cell Therapy for Ankle Osteoarthritis
A significant amount of research has been conducted on the positive effects of stem cell therapy on osteoarthritis patients. Some of these research studies examine and highlight the benefits of stem cell therapy – specifically for patients of ankle osteoarthritis.
A research study published in the Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics reveals that stem cells can help restore ankle bone tissues. The study concludes that stem cell therapy is a promising technique that can help patients with ankle osteoarthritis by restoring any ankle defects.
Another 2015 review study investigated the treatment of stem cells in patients who had ankle, hip, or knee osteoarthritis. Each patient was given one injection and follow-up examinations, and tests were taken at regular intervals for the next 30 months. The final results were very promising, as patients experienced no adverse side effects. At the end of the 30 months, patients reported less discomfort, and were able to walk for increased distances. The study concluded that stem cell therapy for joints is both safe and therapeutically beneficial.
