So Tyson Chandler will be in beast mode tonight? Harden needs to channel his inner more efficient Kobe.
Wow, his cowardice knows no bounds. First, he refuses to play in the Lakers game because he's hiding from those abuse allegations. Doesn't show up in the bench, just to avoid national TV exposure. He even pretended to have a painful knee during shootaround that morning to setup his excuse. Smart. Now he's even undergone a plasma therapy on his knee rather than admit he was just being a coward! Wow! He'll go through any lengths cuz he's such a p****, amiright? amiright?
It is like having a beautiful dream about hotness and then waking up realizing you are rubbing the knee of a male friend
I know a thing or two about this procedure. Feel free ask me anything if you would like The jist of the procedure is to dramatically lower the inflammation in the injured area which promotes faster healing Most people feel immediate results and while you may feel great and as if you don't need the procedure anymore you should still get the shots and injections throughout the allotted time. These procedures are usually for chronic pain issues where physical therapy and other therapies have failed and is actually an amazing and novel idea I don't think Dwight will be out, he should be able to play while getting the injections WHEN and IF he feels better. The main thing is to find out if the inflammation dramatically goes down.
Do you even know in which cases this is and can be used? You're just freaking people out because the procedure sounds worse than it is. They're just speeding up the healing process it would naturally go through. They're doing it more out of luxury than desperation or seriousness.
How Does PRP Help Heal The Body? The body’s first response to soft tissue injury is to deliver platelet cells Packed with growth and healing factors, platelets initiate repair and attract the critical assistance of stem cells PRP’s natural healing process intensifies the body’s efforts by delivering a higher concentration of platelets directly into the area in need To create PRP, a small sample of your blood is drawn (similar to a lab test sample) and placed in a centrifuge that spins the blood at high speeds, separating the platelets from the other components. The process is handled manually by a lab technician, producing higher concentrations of platelets and a much more pure concentration of the beneficial blood components The PRP is then injected into and around the point of injury, jump-starting and significantly strengthening the healing process Because your own blood is used, there is no risk of a transmissible infection and a low risk of allergic reaction
