Exploring the feasibility of platelet-rich plasma injections for intervertebral discopathy: a pilot study
Platelet-Rich Plasma injections show promise for some patients with low back pain and degenerative intervertebral discopathy patients. However, caution is warranted due to study limitations, including small sample size and lack of a control group. Further research is needed to define Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy protocols.
