Life is demanding.\nDay-to-day life is often marked by schedules, plans, goals, obligations… pure activity. We need to move.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

On the other hand, WHO recommendations are very clear: physical activity has important health benefits<\/strong> for the heart, body and mind.\nEspecially walking. <\/p>\n\n

The WHO itself points out that to enjoy the benefits of walking<\/strong> (reducing the risk of numerous diseases, strengthening bones and muscles, helping to maintain a healthy weight, improving mood…) 30 minutes a day are enough.\nBut… <\/p>\n\n

Can you imagine what it would be like if we suffered every time we took a step?<\/h2>\n\n

In this article we will talk about plantar fasciitis, one of the most frequent pathologies in podiatry, and the possibilities of regenerative medicine to cure this inflammation that conditions the quality of life.<\/p>\n\n

Plantar fasciitis, the pain that changes your daily life.<\/h2>\n\n

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain.\nIt involves inflammation of a thick band of tissue that runs across the sole of the foot and connects the heel bone to the toes <\/strong>(plantar fascia). <\/p>\n\n

This usually causes a stabbing pain<\/strong> that usually appears with the first steps in the morning.\nAfterwards, the pain usually subsides, but may recur when standing for prolonged periods or standing up after sitting. <\/p>\n\n

\"Plantar<\/figure>\n\n

According to data compiled by the Ministry of Health and Social Protection, it is estimated that about 12% of the Colombian population suffers plantar fasciitis at some point in their lives<\/strong>, making it one of the most frequent podiatric conditions in the country.<\/p>\n\n

Worldwide, it is estimated that 10% of the population will suffer from plantar fasciitis at some point in their lives.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

It is therefore a global public health problem.\nBut it does not affect everyone equally. If you have to stand for several hours a day, are overweight or over 65 years of age, the chances increase considerably.\nAnd if you’re a regular runner, chances are you’ve already suffered from it. <\/strong> And we know it’s not easy to give up those miles that make you feel so good and improve your mood.\nBut don’t worry, maybe the solution is not as complicated as you imagine… <\/p>\n\n

Regenerative medicine: start your day off on the right foot again.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

In most cases, resolution of plantar fasciitis symptoms occurs over a period of time ranging from 10 to 12 months.<\/strong> Doesn’t sound very good, especially if sports are part of your lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n

The most conservative treatments are based on physiotherapy, ice application, stretching, or even insoles and walking aids that avoid supporting all the weight on the foot.<\/p>\n\n

If this is not enough, we would have to talk about more invasive options: steroid injections, shock wave therapy or even surgery.<\/p>\n\n

In short, more complex treatments, which sometimes involve pain, added discomfort and extra recovery time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

So?<\/p>\n\n

Regenerative medicine is beginning to clearly differentiate itself from the usual options.\nRather than simply alleviating symptoms, regenerative medicine seeks to address the underlying cause of the problem, promoting healing and regeneration of damaged tissues.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

According to studies reviewed by the Revista Espa\u00f1ola de Podolog\u00eda, infiltrations of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) effectively reduce the pain caused by plantar fasciitis, due to its mechanism of repairing damaged tissues.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Why PRP?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Inside the platelets there are growth factors, which are released activating repair mechanisms of the damaged tissues.\nWhen we use PRP in plantar fasciitis, it acts by promoting collagen synthesis and stimulation of vascular endothelial cells.<\/a> All this mechanism helps in the regeneration of the plantar fascia and therefore to significantly reduce pain and inflammation. <\/p>\n\n

In some of the studies reviewed, pain decreased by an average of 7.8 points on the VAS scale. <\/strong>VAS scale<\/strong><\/a> during the 6 months after treatment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

If this starts to cheer you up, you will feel even better when you learn that PRP therapy has no harmful or side effects<\/strong>, as PRP from autologous blood through automatic processes.<\/p>\n\n

Don’t give up the vitality within you. Regenerative medicine is a safe, fast and simple option to forget about plantar fasciitis.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To do it with America Cell Bank is to do it right.<\/p>\n\n
