A short clinician-led YouTube segment by Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter offering practical post-PRP (platelet-rich plasma) recovery advice. He emphasizes keeping a clean, anti-inflammatory diet, using cartilage-supporting supplements, and following gentle, progressive joint movement (walking and active range of motion) while avoiding heavy loading activities like weightlifting or marathon running.
It's super critical to make sure that the diet is nice and clean.
After we do prp it's important to take a little bit of a time to rest. I do want you getting up and moving so we'll move the joint around, sort of an active movement within just a couple of hours. And the next couple of days I want us to do a little bit of a walking program, moving the joint around without a bunch of weight on it. So we're not going to lift a bunch of weights. I don't want you running a marathon. Right. So we don't want to be doing that and then we really want to be supportive of the joint. So the supplements we want to take, those cartilage supplements, we want to have a great anti inflammatory diet. Remember if we put garbage into the system we get garbage out of the system. So prp, it's super critical to make sure that the diet is nice and clean.
