If there is ever an argument against this treatment...It is the QB play of Tannehill
wait wait wait.
tannehill had a partial ACL tear, tried to go back and play, then had a compete tear. my guess -- although the article didnt state this, is that he probably had PRP or some other similar treatment to try to help the partial tear. that would actually be be a reasonable use. but, if that were the case -- it didnt work. he ended missing more time because of it after he had the complete tear.
now, he got injections AFTER the ACL repair surgery? really? why? to "help the healing"? baloney.
regennexx is appealing to the masses who dont know any better. it looks like what they did for him amounted to absolutely nothing, but they want a big name for marketing. not cool
regen definitely works in the young, healthy, motivated patient
Anything works in that patient, and surprisingly so does doing nothing
Did not work so well for Payton Manning
If 3 or 4 fusions didn't work, I don't think perfect placement of the most special sauce would have either. But hey, he made 1 first down and won the broncos a super bowl!for his neck which was ultimately fused? Or before that? Or after? Im not familiar with exactly what he received.
I don't think we should pass judgment without knowing the specifics of his case. If I recall, he had a cervical disc herniation and chronic radiculopathy which eventually required fusion.
Reportedly, he had the stem cell procedure done in Europe prior to his fusion. Cells were harvested from his fat. Unknown if he had an epidural, intradiscal injection, or something else.
