Went to Methodist Hospital in downtown Indy to get my hand checked out at the Indiana Hand Center offices. Met with the Dr. and he suggested a customized splint and cortisone shots. I am leaning more towards Prolotherapy instead. Diagnosed with osteoarthritis of the basal carpometacarpal joint. I do not want the cortisone shots and when I mentioned Prolotherapy he had no idea what I was talking about. The thing about cortisone shots it only decreases the pain for a few months and then when the pain returns ( far more painful than it was before the first round of cortisone shots ) they want to give you some more cortisone shots . And repeat until it will never heal . This is my opinion of the cortisone shots. I did go ahead and get the customized splint .
To get the Prolotherapy I will have to go elsewhere and my man has been to https://www.caringmedical.com/ and had
Prolotherapy for tennis elbow and he was impressed with the results and has been pain free of the tennis elbow now for over 12 years.
The basic mechanism of Prolotherapy is simple.
Prolotherapy solutions are injected into your painful areas to begin a reparative action.
The injections create a localized inflammation triggering the immune system to create the building blocks of ligaments, tendons, cartilage and bone.
Comprehensive Prolotherapy through a series of injections REBUILDS the joints from within.
