Hello @aruba

I am glad you have found our online forum. We are a supportive and friendly group of people , and I am sure our members will respond to you if they have experience of plasma injections.

It is difficult to know how to direct you to help without knowing a bit more about you! I searched on our website https://www.versusarthritis.org/search?query=Plasma+injection and there are quite a few results. I hope at least one is of help.

I am also giving you a link on managing pain which may be useful:

Please keep posting. We want to know how you are getting on!

Thank you so much for your reply , I have arthritis in spine both hips and both knees I have been offered a hip replacement but declined as I can’t see how I would manage the excercise needed after surgery (I can only walk short distances with a rollator )to get a good result considering the other areas that are involved , and no one seemed to consider that problem , I am having acupuncture and Chinese massage privately which has always helped in the past , but this plasma treatment was suggested to me by a friend hence the request ,
