ABSTRACT
To define the pain and functional improvement of the patient with chronic Achilles tendinitis treated with a single PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injection. Chronic Tendoachilles tendinitis is a severe cause for a decrease in physical activity and persistent pain. It arises secondary to an account of repetitive use or exaggerated overload. Platelet-rich plasma therapy is used to provide local regenerative healing of the tendon. This report describes a 50-year-old Active female who presented with continuous pain in bilateral Tendoachilles for Approximately 6 years duration. A single Platelet-rich plasma injection is given to the patient with chronic tendoachilles tendinitis to reduce pain and improve function and improved VAS (visual analogue score) score from 9 to 0 seen at 1-year follow-up. The patient has been pain-free for the past 2 years and is back to daily functional physical activity. A single injection of PRP in each tendoachilles distally has shown significant relief in pain and improvement in day-to-day physical activity and a rapid recovery from chronic TA tendinitis.
