Shoulders/ PRP/prolotherapy

Does anyone have insight into either of these? I've major tears (MRI) in my shoulder, have had 2 surgical repairs in the last 18 years and another is not an option. Plasma Rich Platelet injections or prolotherapy are procedures that have a following but I'd like to hear some first hand info from swimmers.
  • I have had PRP on both elbows for golfer's elbow. I had the right one done 2 years ago and it is great. I had the left one done 3 months ago and it's about 75% better, but I remember it was almost 9 months before my right one really felt well. I can't comment on how it works for shoulders, but I got minimal relief from cortisone, so this was a good option for me. Insurance paid for my first one, but not the latest one. If you want more details, email me.
