I'm going to talk about platelet rich plasma and platelet rich fibrin for osteoarthritis. So PRP PRF almost interchangeable most time we were activating the PRP to make a PRF where it's now using straight PRF PRP is a good first option. First line therapy. I tried that first. You want to have mobility, personal experience. I had the shoulder issue which I treated with PRP back in 2011. I've treated my knees with various therapies because I have genetic risk and I'm not symptomatic of any degree. But I'm going to do a PRP PRF injection in the next month or so because I'm starting to feel something again. So if you have a joint, anything's bothering you, let's look at options. Thank you.
