What Is Joint Osteoarthritis?

Symptoms vary by joint, but generally include the following.
Pain that worsens with movement or weight bearing Stiffness, especially after periods of rest Reduced range of motion in the affected joint Swelling around the joint A grinding or catching sensation during movement
How Dr. AKM Mohiuddin Treats Joint Osteoarthritis
Dr. Mohiuddin treats hip, shoulder, ankle, and AC joint osteoarthritis using PRP therapy and stem cell therapy, chosen based on which joint is affected, how advanced the condition is, and the patient’s overall health.
His primary PRP technique is PA-PRP. For more advanced cases, he uses stem cell therapy, including SVF and X-Cell protocols, to support joint tissue repair.
Chondromalacia Patella
Chondromalacia patella is the softening or breakdown of cartilage on the underside of the kneecap. It causes similar pain and stiffness to joint osteoarthritis and is treated with the same regenerative approach, PRP therapy or stem cell therapy, depending on severity.
What to Expect During Treatment
Treatment starts with a clinical assessment, including a physical examination and imaging to confirm which joint is affected and how advanced the condition is.
Based on this assessment, Dr. Mohiuddin discusses whether PRP therapy, stem cell therapy, or a combination fits your case, then walks through the treatment plan and follow-up schedule.
Is Treatment Right for You?
Treatment suitability depends on which joint is affected, how advanced the osteoarthritis is, and your overall health. Earlier-stage cases often respond well to PRP therapy, while more advanced cases may need stem cell therapy.
Not every patient is a candidate, and outcomes vary by patient and condition. A consultation is the only way to know which option applies to you.
