What about glucosamine and chondroitin supplementation process, there many testimonials that it can alleviate of osteoarthritis system and good for cartilage and senuvial fluid
@@celerinonavallo1816 that is in several of our posts and videos. Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate are not earth shattering, and there is no evidence that they grow back new cartilage, but there is some evidence that they may protect the cartilage that is still there. Some people do notice a benefit from taking these, other people do not. Always consult with your own doctor before taking any supplement because it can interact with other medications or supplements you are taking and also, some people are allergic to these type of supplements if they have an allergy to shellfish or other animal proteins. Also consulting with your pharmacist could help as well. Thank you for your comment!
Thank you for your video! A doctor told me that I have osteoarthritis in my hip. I have been exploring natural ways of dealing with this condition. One thing I have been doing is mixing peanut oil and honey. I rub it on my hip joint and on also on my knee. That is helping me. Maybe it can help somebody else. Just know that I had like varicose veins at the side of my knee. Since I have been putting honey on that area they have almost completely disappeared. In a book on Edgar Cayce Remedies it is suggested to apply peanut oil on arthritic joints.
@@sparky7915 we are very glad that you feel better. It may have some type of local anti-inflammatory effect like other types of rubs and creams have, but it’s not treating the underlying cause if there’s truly osteoarthritis in there. That is the problem, it is not going to treat the underlying cause. it is just going to make it feel better or be like a Band-Aid effect. Not that I don’t love, honey, both to eat, but also have used it on superficial infections, specially around fingers and nails, and it has worked very well. Obviously always consult with your own doctor regarding these type of home remedies first. Thank you very much for your comment!

Time for a knee replacement for me, I have tried many things, the cortisone shots were working great but I was told that once they stopped, it was time to replace, well they stopped working so I need to consider replacement, I have already been approved by the insurance company and I have a great doctor, but I keep hearing about the Maco system of knee replacement and how wonderful, accurate, and perfect these come out, I'm not sure I'm crazy about a company that makes hospital beds providing equipment to do knee surgeries, your thoughts please?
@@westwasbest Mako is robotic technology and for surgery, robotic surgery is the wave of the future. Having said that there are SO many other non operative treatments than cortisone (recent studies have shown that people who get repeated Cortizone shots like yourself, there arthritis actually proceeds faster than people who don’t get cortisone shots). Too much to explain in this format. Please e-mail Regen@victoryinmotion.com Have a great day!
@@TruthBot1984 unfortunately, in a lot of regards, that is true. We are working to take things in the opposite direction to be proactive and preventive as well as get to the root cause as opposed to reactive and treating symptoms with a “Band-Aid“ approach. Thank you for your comment!

@@VictoryInMotion1 my real name is there. Also it’s literally a fact pizza in upstate NY is trash. There’s only like 4 random pizza joints in the capital region that are ok, but still compared to NY, it’s like eating soggy white bread with sauce and cheap cheese on it.
@@-XxM.DxX- so, you have tried every single pizza place in whatever you define “upstate“ New York to be? Anyway, OK, always good to have free conversations where different opinions are expressed, SO, since we all are foodies and all love pizza 🍕, where is your #1 of all time BEST place to get pizza and we will definitely check it out, try it and post about it. THANKS P.S.: The original makers of pizza 🍕 in Naples, Italy 🇮🇹 would be and probably are laughing in our faces 🤣😂 right now. Bottom line for you and all our followers out there: … WHERE IS YOUR GO TO ABSOLUTE BEST PIZZERIA YOU GO TO THAT HAS THE GREATEST PIZZA 🍕 OF ALL TIME???
@@VictoryInMotion1 upstate is anything outside the tri state/ NY metropolitan area(downstate). And yea I’ve tried many places up here, and it’s nothing like NY pizza. FYI, NY pizza is WAAAY better than pizza in Italy, ITALIANS from Italy even say so. Also Patsy’s on 1st ave is amazing, try it. Zero Otto Nove on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx (the real little Italy of NY) is amazing, Andrew Bellucci’s in Queens is awesome , Luigi’s in Brooklyn is legendary, and Unagro in Staten Island is top tier.
@@-XxM.DxX- Patsy’s and Luigi’s are definitely great. I will try the others as well. What is your absolute number one go to, however? Now, having said that, every place I go I always try “the best” pizza based on what the locals say. It is all a matter of perspective, and, yes, overall, New York City definitely has the best pizza in the world. Having said that, there are still amazing pizzas all over the country and world, including Italy, where I have been, and even made my own woodfired pizza in a restaurant in Naples, and that was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had in my life. Also, I will rival just about anybody with my pizzas I make in my Ooni pizza oven. The water in New York City is definitely the key and that has been proven many times as well. So, I guess I would say there are lots of good places where you can find amazing pizza, but there’s nowhere else in the world that you can find the best bagels, and that is without argument, that is New York City. hands-down, no other bagels anywhere else in any city, in any country, even come close! Hopefully you can agree on that. Again, it’s the water which is the key, but also, they’re huge. Bottom line, I love food!
Off topic: Do you folks have and experience with Colligan Peptides 1,2 and 3 for helping joints s far as tendons, ligaments and cartilage? I have been using them but forget some days. Many times especially when I wake up in the morning there is a considerable reduction of knee pain. Although I am not sure if they are actually repairing the damage. I permanently damaged one knee about 8 years ago by overworking the knees way too much. My other knee was totally broken - Ligaments, tendons, cartilage and knee cap in my second year of playing full contact football. Surgeon told me what he had to repair and he told my parents that I would never walk again - Said only with a cane, walker or wheelchair. It was bent at about a 40 degree angle and I ended up Walking again thanks to a rather large physiotherapist who finally walked up to me on the table and jumped up and literally pushed my knee flat. I started to see light shoot outa my head and never went back although it was fixed pretty good. Somehow this knee survived the considerable over working of both knees.. And help here would be much appreciated. There are too many questionable opinions anywhere online including uninformed medical sites. Thanks

@@ethimself5064 not 100% sure about those specifically, and do need to learn more about those and BHRT as well.

Spring-loaded braces hurt more than o/a on its own. Hyaluronic acid injections are offered on the NHS at a rate of once every 6 months. Bloody useless. I mentioned Laser Therapy ( and a bunch of other things) to my consultant who was dismissive, saying they all basically do the same thing. What rot! Why would they waste even more NHS funding keep producing the same product, but under a different name? The long and short of it is that they are not prepared to spend the money on you, so forget it!
@@fionaestherfortuin4185 thank you for your response. There were two separate studies over the last two years that showed that people who had cortisone shots in their knees developed arthritis faster than people who never had cortisone shots. So we know that although cortisone may be like a Band-Aid and make the patient feel better, it is actually doing damage to the cartilage. regarding the unloader brace, we have found that they do help peoples symptoms early on, but then, after a while, patients tired of having to wear a big, bulky brace. Also, the brace doesn’t do anything for the root cause of the problem and Cortizone actually makes the root cause of the problem worse. So we are happy that you are feeling better, but, we treat people by trying to treat the underlying root cause and have them be free of any external devices such as big, bulky braces. Thank you for your comment!

@@ImThePronounPolice Rooster comb is the red funny looking thing on the top of the rooster’s head. It has a lot of hyaluronic acid in it which is also highly present in our synovial fluid. Synovial fluid is the highly lubricating fluid in all of our joints. Kind of analogous to “motor oil”. Some of the commercial hyaluronic acid injections are actually made by extracting hyaluronic acid from rooster combs, some are made artificially/synthetically. If a person has an allergy to chicken, eggs or feathers, they technically should not get the brands that are made from rooster combs. Hope that helps.
Thankyou for this information!!! Doctors are into knee replacement for the money!!!! My husband was active in early years. He then got into an occupation that required sitting ALL day at a computer 20 year. Fast forward after both knees replaced, he suffers with lymphadema, and cellulitis and is worse off!!! He also gained so much weight. My 100 year old mother never had a knee replacement, and was always active. Get off your butts and do your research people!!!!
@@binachand968 get the government, big Pharma, and the insurance companies to actually get on board with getting to the root cause of most of the medical conditions, including arthritis, and treat the root cause and not the symptoms. Diabetes, most cancers, heart disease, 3/4 of all ACL tears are all preventable as is arthritis and many cases. Why is this not being covered? Also, our bodies have amazing potential to heal themselves, why isn’t that being pushed by insurance companies rather than Cortisone injections, which study after study, have shown cause more damage/harm than good. If you’re going to get upset, start getting the word out to your insurance companies and government officials to change the system, which is broken. Thank you for your comment!
HEADING, GIVES HOPE, BUT LISTENING TO U, WATCHING FULL VIDEO, RESULTING ZERO, NO CURE YET FOR CARTILEGES GROWING, SO, TILL U DON'T FIND SOLUTION. DON'T MAKE VIDEOS, WASTING OUR TIME, EITHER DON'T GIVE THIS HEADLINE, WITHOUT OPERATION, ETC ETC.
@@binachand968 the video does talk about bone marrow cells-BMAC / Cell based therapy is the only way currently to grow back some cartilage, but, yes, there is no way to make a 78-year-old, bone on bone, knee grow back enough cartilage to look like an 18-year-old knee yet. The cell based therapies are the best currently, and, yes, there are some minimally, invasive surgical techniques to help grow cartilage back as well, which are all light years ahead of where we were five or 10 years ago. Having said that, agree, that it is disappointing. There is no “cure” where we can completely reverse the effects of arthritis. So, prevention is mentioned and that is, as once was said, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” You would also be surprised how many people have no idea that there are injections such as PRP or BMAC which insurance companies and big Pharma are not wanting patients to know about, so, yes, it is a secret to many patients that they have no clue there are treatments that can help your body heal itself that are not covered by insurance purposely. They absolutely work better than standard physical therapy, Cortisone injections, gel injections, and even surgical treatments in many studies. There’s a lot of literature out there that insurance companies and big Pharma don’t want you to know about either. So, again, a secret. Glad you are searching for other alternatives and if you are going to be upset with anybody, I would be upset with the insurance companies and big Pharma, who aren’t doing enough to advance to where we can prevent arthritis in the first place with Gene based therapies and things like that. So there is absolutely hope, but insurance companies and big Pharma don’t want you to know that. At some point, we will get there, but yes, you have a right to be upset that these treatments aren’t fully here one quarter of the way through the 21st century. If we could get a man on the moon at the end of, the 1960s, there’s no reason we shouldn’t be able to cure arthritis 1/4 of the way through the 21st century.
That is one of most informative videos I have seen yet. I don’t want to be The Six Million Dollar Man. I don't want to be Iron Man, but I'd settle for the running man. Some of my friends had hips an knee replacements, and I don't want all of that crap. My right knee I can barely walk on due to the pain. I remember when we had my pop cremated. In the back of the furnaces are buckets full joint replacements. I told him if I need a knee replacement I come dig one out of here. Save me some money.
@@GeeLove thank you so much! Much appreciated! Do you want more information for your right knee? Feel free to e-mail info@victorysportsmedicine.com Have a great day!
@@Cindy-df1xk this is completely untrue. There are definitely ways to grow back new cartilage, whether it be surgically or nonsurgically, but, correctly, there is no way currently to grow back new cartilage to make someone’s arthritic knee look like a normal knee when they were 18 …yet, but we are definitely making progress compared to where we were five years ago and especially 10 years ago. There was just recently a study that came out that showed that the thickness of the cartilage along the inner/medial portion of the knee improved over the course of two years using ultrasonic guidance after a PRP injection. That is promising, and there are also several MRI studies looking specifically at cartilage regrowth that do show some regrowth, again, not perfect. To me, what we really need is a large scale arthroscopic before and after regenerative medicine technique study in order to measure this more accurately. Definitely not perfect at this time, but definitely can greatly improve symptoms, function, and overall remodeling of the interior of the joint in addition to, in some cases, growing back some articular cartilage, but I don’t know of any studies that show that we can grow meniscus back yet either. I hope that helps answer your question. PS : to say “never” in medicine, and most things in life, is a mistake. Way back when it could “never” be that the earth was not flat, we know that’s completely false now in addition to many, many other “nevers”. Someday we will prevent or significantly slow down arthritis as opposed to even having to try to regrow cartilage back. Genetic/gene therapy, etc… it is coming!
Am really sad that cartilage hasn’t been made possible. Thank you though for being honest to educate to us about it and let’s not believe cartilage can be grown through food or drugs. Thanks 🙏🏼
@@krush9243 good question, those are obviously peptides, they are not legal in the IV form in the United States and may or may not be considered supplements in the oral form. May be a good topic for future posts. Thank you for your comment!
I have fissures in cartilage and horizontal meniscus tear due to an injury, it seems that leg exercises make it worse. In everyday life I have no problems but I fear that it will get worse over years. Is there an option to prevent further damage?

@@vincentvavpot7108 thank you for your question! In general, yes, the same principles apply, but, every joint is a little bit different and each person and their individual situation is obviously a little bit different. thanks again!

@@janejohnson3087 since each person and each problem is different, that general of a question is impossible to answer correctly. Having said that most people do much better if they do a program as opposed to “just” a “shot and go”. even with surgery, if rehab or total body fitness is added afterwards, laser is added as an adjunct, fat/weight loss may need to be added, genetic base nutrition may need to be added, even bio identical hormone therapy sometimes can help a lot. There are other more controversial things like ozone therapy, etc. Having said that as well, this is a very, very general statement, but in the vast majority of people who undergo ortho biologic procedures like you reference, the range is probably somewhere between 70 to 95% success rate, again, based on the condition and circumstances. Remember, people are like snowflakes, people‘s problems are like snowflakes, no two are the same. Bottom line: our bodies have factors in our blood and cells in our body that help prevent us from breaking down every day. As we get older, they may not work as well, but regenerative medicine experts like ourselves basically just take those factors and cells, concentrate them, and inject them into the areas that need help. That is over simplistic, but that’s basically what it is at this time. So, we are really “just “helping your body heal itself, which is the amazing thing. We are just at the tip of the iceberg in this biologic revolution. Having said that, we are light years ahead of five years ago and 10 years ago and 16 years ago when Dr. P first started performing PRP. Exciting times!
@@marieeshercoia5375 unfortunately that can happen, even with surgery. Nothing is 100% (except death and taxes of course): Some questions: 1). How much blood did they draw? 2) What was the dose they used (in billions of platelets) 3). Single or double spin? 4). What system did they use? 5). Did they use ultrasonic or fluoroscopic guidance when they performed the injection? 6). Leukocyte Rich or Leukocyte Poor 7). What was your platelet count prior to injection? 8). Did they get an MRI??? 9). Do you have bone marrow lesions (stress/microfractures…”soft spots” in the bone under your cartilage? … if you do and those were not addressed, it would not be surprising if just injecting into the inside of the knee and not injecting into the bone marrow lesions did not help…we see this all the time (see previous posts…”Don’t forget the bone!”) 10). Did you have just a “shot and go” or was there any rehab, laser, diet, weight/fat loss if needed. Just a plain shot only is less effective than a “Whole-istic” approach. Thank you for your comment!

So basically, your thumbnail and tattoo was a bit and in the end, you just mention that there is no way to grow cartilage and no idea. Did you just put a click bait
@@srsvg thank you for your comment! A LOT of people out there have no idea at all about what works and doesn’t work to help their knee arthritis and knee (or other joint) pain. The point of recording that video and answering all those questions people write in or ask was to help sort “standard” “insurance based” treatments, most of which don’t work or are “just” Band-aids, with things that do work, have great potential to work once they are fully developed. There ARE ways to grow back cartilage and the video does go into those, but you are correct, there is no perfect way yet to make a 78 year old arthritic knee look like it was when it was 18…yet. Having said that, I do agree with your point. We record the videos and had somebody else to our longform, editing, etc., because that is obviously a lot of work. They could have done a better job on some parts of that video, and we currently do not work with them, but your point is well taken, The video was from eight months ago and we are constantly trying to get better, so thank you very much for your comment and we will take that into consideration in the future! Much appreciated!
@@BecauseofHisLove777 thank you for your question. Don’t have time to go look at the exact quote in the video right this second, but can try to check on it later. Bottom line, however, is that Cortisone is bad. Yes, it decreases inflammation, but it also decreases healing, increases the risk of infection, increases blood sugar, which is bad in diabetics, can cause fat necrosis underneath the skin which can lead to deformities, and can cause light patches on the skin, not to mention suppress the production of normal Cortisone by our adrenal glands. I may have been referencing that there have been two studies over the last couple of years that have confirmed what we already know. Patients who received Cortisone injections into their knees, actually had more rapid development of arthritis than patients who did not get Cortisone injections. Also, if a patient is given a Cortisone injection into their area where we are going to be performing surgery, we have to wait at least 6 to 8 weeks to perform the surgery because of the increased risk of infection and wound healing problems. If a patient has had a Cortisone injection into their shoulder within a full year, and they undergo a rotator cuff repair, they have a much, much higher rate of not healing the rotator cuff repair. So, just a bunch of reasons why Cortisone is terrible in our opinion. We very, very rarely use it. It is technology from the 1940s. It is artificial.
@@maxinebrooks6672 not fans of any type of cortisone shot when we know that studies have shown that patients who receive cortisone shots vs those who don’t develop worse arthritis
