Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections (PRP)

PRP Therapy for Foot and Ankle

Natural Healing to Repair Tissue and Reduce Pain

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) uses a concentrated portion of your own blood to stimulate healing in injured or irritated tissue. In the foot and ankle, PRP can help with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, chronic ankle sprains, peroneal tendon pain, and select arthritis or ligament injuries. It is designed to reduce pain, support tissue repair, and improve function when rest, bracing, and other conservative care have not been enough.

Your visit includes a focused exam and imaging review to confirm you are a good candidate. We draw a small sample of blood, spin it in a centrifuge to concentrate growth factors, and inject the PRP into the target area, often with ultrasound guidance for precision. Most patients feel soreness for a few days, then gradual improvement over several weeks as healing progresses. You will receive clear activity guidelines, a short period of relative rest, and a structured return to stretching, strengthening, and gait training. Many treatment plans pair PRP with footwear changes or custom orthotics to protect the repair.



Safety and expectations matter. We review medications, health conditions, and timing around anti-inflammatory drugs, which may be limited before and after treatment. Some conditions require more than one session, and results vary by diagnosis and severity. If PRP is not the best option, we will discuss alternatives such as shockwave therapy, targeted injections, or surgical solutions. Our goal is to match the right therapy to your needs so you can return to comfortable movement with confidence.
