PRP Treatment for Knee Pain in Ludhiana | Non-Surgical Relief

Stop Living With Knee Pain—Without Going Under the Knife

That sharp pain when you stand up. The morning stiffness. The calculations you make before every step. Knee pain doesn’t just hurt—it steals your freedom one limitation at a time.

Maybe you’ve been told surgery is your only option. Maybe you’re scared of that reality. Or maybe you’re just tired of pills that don’t actually fix anything. Here’s what you need to know: there’s a better path forward, right here in Ludhiana.

What Is PRP Treatment and Why Does It Work?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) isn’t about masking pain—it’s about actual healing. Your blood already contains powerful repair cells called platelets. They rush to injuries and trigger your body’s natural healing response. The problem? Chronic knee damage often doesn’t have enough of these repair cells where you need them most.

PRP treatment is elegant in its simplicity. We take a small amount of your blood, concentrate those healing platelets using a specialized process, and inject them precisely into your damaged knee tissue. No foreign substances. No synthetic drugs. Just your body’s own repair system, supercharged and targeted exactly where healing needs to happen.

Those concentrated platelets reduce inflammation, attract stem cells, rebuild cartilage, and strengthen tissue around your knee joint. You’re not covering up the problem—you’re fixing what’s broken

Real People, Real Results

Mrs. Sharma was a schoolteacher who couldn’t stand through her classes anymore. She’d been scheduled for knee replacement. After PRP treatment, she walked into our clinic six months later—not for more treatment, but to share photos from a pilgrimage she thought she’d never make.

Rajveer, a 52-year-old businessman, thought his cricket days were over. The pain made even driving uncomfortable. Three months after PRP treatment, Dr. Aggarwal received a photo from Rajveer’s Sunday cricket match.

These aren’t miracle stories. They’re what happens when you give your body the right tools to heal, at the right time, with expert guidance.

Who Benefits Most From PRP?

This treatment works exceptionally well if you’re dealing with:

Early to moderate osteoarthritis where you’re hurting but “not bad enough for surgery yet”—this is actually the perfect time for intervention.

Meniscus tears that ache constantly but aren’t severe enough for immediate surgery.

Ligament injuries (ACL, MCL, PCL) where you want to avoid surgery or strengthen healing afterward.

Chronic conditions like patellar tendinitis or runner’s knee that won’t resolve with rest and physical therapy.

The key is timing. PRP works best before severe degeneration occurs, when your body still has good healing capacity to work with.

What to Expect: The Actual Experience

Let’s be straight about what happens. Your first visit is a real conversation with Dr. N.K. Aggarwal—not a rushed consultation, but genuine listening. He’ll examine your knee, review your imaging, and give you honest guidance about whether PRP makes sense for your situation.

The treatment itself? Surprisingly simple. We draw blood from your arm (like a regular blood test), process it for about 20 minutes to concentrate the platelets, then inject the PRP into your knee. The injection feels similar to getting a flu shot. The entire visit takes under an hour.

No hospital stay. No general anesthesia. No crutches on your way out. Most people return to normal activities within a few days, though we ask you to avoid intense exercise for a couple of weeks while healing happens.

Improvement typically unfolds over two to three months. Most patients complete a series of three injections spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results. And here’s the beautiful part—once healing occurs, it’s real and lasting.

Why Dr. Aggarwal’s Experience Matters

After five decades in orthopedics, working across multiple countries, Dr. N.K. Aggarwal has developed an expertise that can’t be taught from textbooks. He knows which knees will respond beautifully to PRP and which need different approaches.

Crucially, because he’s an experienced surgeon, Dr. Aggarwal has no bias toward one treatment over another. He can perform excellent surgical procedures—but his philosophy is clear: surgery should be the last resort, not the first recommendation. When someone who can do surgery expertly tells you there’s a better way, listen.

Real Talk: Will This Work for You?

Clinical studies show 70-80% of patients experience significant pain relief and improved mobility with PRP treatment. That’s not a guarantee, but it’s a success rate worth considering—especially compared to the risks, recovery time, and costs of surgery.

If your joint is severely degraded with bone-on-bone grinding, PRP has limitations. Dr. Aggarwal will tell you this honestly. But if there’s even a 70% chance of avoiding surgery, isn’t that worth exploring first? The wonderful thing about PRP is that trying it doesn’t eliminate surgical options later. But surgery can’t be undone.
