A joint injury occurs when connective tissues such as ligaments, tendons, cartilage, or the joint capsule are damaged. These injuries can affect any joint—knees, shoulders, hips, elbows—and range from minor sprains to severe tears or fractures.
Joint injuries can limit mobility, cause persistent pain, and reduce quality of life, making early, effective treatment essential for both recovery and long-term joint health.
Common factors contributing to joint injuries include:

from falls, sports collisions, or car accidents

with repetitive motions that strain joints over time

as wear and tear makes joints more vulnerable to injury

which places chronic stress on joints

with some individuals predisposed to weaker connective tissue
Joint injury symptoms can vary by severity and location, but often include:
Pain, sharp or dull, often worsening with movement
Swelling and inflammation, sometimes with warmth or redness
Stiffness, reducing range of motion
Weakness, limiting strength and function
Instability, with joints feeling loose or “giving way”
Rest, ice, compression, elevation (RICE) to reduce swelling and pain
Medications such as NSAIDs to manage discomfort
Physical therapy to restore strength and flexibility
Conservative Care
Initial care for many joint injuries includes:
At Aven Clinic, we focus on regenerative medicine treatments that restore damaged tissue and promote long-term joint health.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
Uses concentrated platelets from your own blood
Delivers growth factors that stimulate repair and regeneration
Reduces inflammation and accelerates recovery naturally
Stem Cell Therapy
Harvests stem cells from bone marrow or fat tissue
Regenerates cartilage, tendon, and ligament tissue
Restores joint function while reducing pain and stiffness
Faster recovery, with minimal downtime
Lower risks, avoiding surgical complications and anesthesia
Sustainable results, by stimulating natural repair instead of masking symptoms
Regenerative therapies provide major advantages compared to surgery:
These advanced treatments are especially valuable for:
Athletes or active adults recovering from sports injuries
Patients with chronic joint pain or instability
Individuals wanting to avoid invasive surgery
Anyone committed to preserving long-term joint strength and mobility
