PRP Injections for Knee & Joint Pain

A small sample of your blood is taken and placed in a centrifuge, which spins it to concentrate the platelets, the part of the blood that is rich in natural growth factors.

This concentrated plasma is injected into the affected joint or tissue. The growth factors are thought to support the body’s own repair process, helping to calm inflammation and encourage healing. Because PRP uses your own blood, the risk of a reaction is very low.

A clinical referral is required before booking a PRP consultation. This can be a referral from your own GP, an NHS GP, or any outside clinician, or you can book an appointment with our internal GP first, who can provide the referral for you.

1. Consultation and assessment. A consultant radiologist examines your joint, reviews your history and imaging, and confirms whether PRP is suitable.
2. Your blood sample. A small sample of your blood is taken and prepared on site to concentrate the platelets.
3. The injection. The PRP is injected into the target area, often using ultrasound guidance to ensure accurate placement.

It is normal to feel some soreness or mild swelling for a few days as the healing response gets going. PRP works gradually, and many people notice an improvement over several weeks. Some conditions respond to a single injection, others do better with a short course.
