It was determined that this Division I college basketball player had unrecognized and untreated connective tissue injuries. Because the Prolotherapy treatment method is the only medical intervention that is known to stimulate natural healing, produce collagen, strengthen damaged and weakened ligaments and tendons, stabilize joints, and subsequently eliminate pain and increase function, the patient/athlete and I decided on pursuing this course of treatment. Despite the length of time since the injury (over two years), the lack of improvement with both conservative and surgical care, and the extreme demands of an elite college athlete, there was a great deal of optimism about the outcome, provided a consistent, complete, and aggressive plan using Prolotherapy was followed.
