Do Stem Cells Treat Osteoarthritis

Stem cell therapy can be used to treat osteoarthritis, but it is not recommended. Currently, the main treatments for osteoarthritis are exercise therapy, joint protection, physical therapy, medication and surgery. Osteoarthritis may be related to age, trauma, obesity, heredity and other factors, which will lead to joint pain, joint stiffness and other symptoms. Currently, the main treatments for osteoarthritis are exercise therapy, joint protection, physical therapy, medication and surgery, and in recent years, there are also experiments proving that stem cell therapy may be used to treat osteoarthritis. Recently, there have been attempts to use stem cell therapy to treat osteoarthritis in China, such as regenerating articular cartilage through pluripotent adult stem cells, but the technology is still in the stage of experimental exploration, so it is not recommended to use stem cells to treat osteoarthritis. It is recommended that patients suffering from osteoarthritis go to the orthopedic department or rheumatology department of regular hospitals for relevant consultation and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
