PRP for Ankle Issues
Accelerate healing for ankle injuries with precision PRP treatments.
Rebuilding the Foundation You Stand On
Your ankles are engineering marvels. They absorb forces of up to five times your body weight with every stride, pivot through complex multi-directional movements, and provide the foundation for everything from walking to competitive athletics. When ankle injuries occur, the effects ripple upward through the entire kinetic chain, altering how your knees, hips, and back function.
Ankle conditions are particularly common among athletes, runners, and active individuals, but they also affect anyone who has experienced a sprain that never quite resolved. The tendons and ligaments of the ankle have notoriously limited blood supply, which is precisely why conventional treatments often fall short: the body simply cannot deliver enough healing resources to the damaged area on its own.
PRP therapy changes this equation entirely. By concentrating your body's own platelets and injecting them directly into the injured tissue, we flood the area with growth factors that accelerate tendon repair, strengthen ligament fibers, and reduce the chronic inflammation that perpetuates pain. The result is genuine tissue healing rather than temporary symptom relief.
Ankle Conditions We Treat
Achilles Tendonitis
PRP targets the degenerative changes within the Achilles tendon, delivering growth factors that stimulate collagen production and restore the tendon's structural integrity over time.
Ankle Sprains (Chronic & Acute)
Whether you are dealing with a fresh lateral sprain or recurring instability from ligaments that never fully healed, PRP accelerates the repair of stretched or torn ankle ligaments.
Plantar Fasciitis
Chronic heel and arch pain from plantar fascia degeneration responds exceptionally well to PRP, which interrupts the cycle of failed healing and promotes healthy tissue remodeling.
Peroneal Tendon Injuries
The peroneal tendons running along the outer ankle are prone to tears and inflammation in active individuals. PRP supports the healing environment these tendons need to recover fully.
Ankle Instability
Repeated sprains can leave the ankle chronically unstable. PRP strengthens damaged ligaments and surrounding tissues, restoring the proprioceptive stability that prevents future injury.
Post-Fracture Recovery
After an ankle fracture, surrounding soft tissues often remain compromised. PRP enhances the healing of tendons, ligaments, and joint capsule tissue during the critical recovery window.
What to Expect
Comprehensive Ankle Assessment
Your visit begins with a detailed evaluation of your ankle mechanics, including gait analysis and stability testing. We review any imaging and map out the specific structures that need treatment to build a targeted injection plan.
Sample Collection & Processing
We draw a small volume of blood from your arm and process it in our advanced centrifuge system. The resulting PRP concentrate is rich in the specific growth factors that tendon and ligament tissue respond to most effectively.
Ultrasound-Guided Treatment
Ankle anatomy is intricate, with tendons, ligaments, and nerves in close proximity. We use real-time ultrasound imaging to guide the needle with sub-millimeter precision, ensuring the PRP reaches exactly where it is needed.
Graduated Return to Activity
Most patients can bear weight immediately after treatment. We provide a structured rehabilitation timeline: gentle movement in week one, progressive strengthening by week three, and a gradual return to full activity as healing progresses over 6-8 weeks.
