Stem cell therapy, also known as regenerative cell therapy, is exponentially becoming popular to cure different spine or bones related conditions. However, it is mainly performed to treat osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. With aging, the protective layer of bone starts to deteriorate. Once these protective layers are entirely removed, bones begin to dissent with each other, resulting in swelling and stiffness. Eventually, people with OA faces a problem with walking and moving. What is Stem Cell Therapy? In stem cell therapy, stem cells are directed to the affected area where pain prompts. Generally, the stem cell is immature that is awaited to be developed. It is known as a skin cell or muscle cell. According to the different body parts, various types of stem cells are used. Stem cell therapy is also used as arthritis knee pain treatment .
