Questions & answers
What should I avoid after a stem cell or PRP injection?
After a stem cell or PRP injection, avoid strenuous activity, heavy lifting, and anti-inflammatory medications for the period your provider specifies, and protect the treated area. You receive written aftercare instructions before you leave.
The first 48 hours
Rest, ice, and protect the treated area. Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, and prolonged standing or walking on the treated joint.
Medications to discuss
Some anti-inflammatory medications may interfere with the healing response. Your provider reviews your medications before treatment and tells you what to avoid and for how long.
The weeks after
Return to daily activity gradually, then build into guided rehabilitation. Improvement typically builds over weeks to months, and pushing too hard too soon can slow the process.
