Platelet treatments
Platelet lysate for disc and nerve pain in Bangalore
Growth factors released from your own platelets, injected under image guidance at the exact level of a bulging or herniated disc.
What it is
Growth factors, without the cells
Platelet lysate is made from your own blood. The platelets are concentrated and then processed so that they release their growth factors. The result is a solution of concentrated growth factors.
For bulging and herniated discs, we inject platelet lysate under image guidance at the affected level. It aims to ease back or neck pain, buttock and leg pain, and numbness or tingling in the arms or legs. It is used as an alternative to steroid epidural injections for suitable patients.
Where it is used
Platelet lysate may be considered for
- Bulging and herniated discs in the neck, upper back or lower back
- Sciatica and arm pain from an irritated nerve
- Spine disorders where a steroid injection is not wanted or not suitable
- Some tendon, ligament and soft tissue conditions and chronic musculoskeletal pain
Whether platelet lysate, PRP or bone marrow concentrate is right for you depends on your examination and MRI.

Patient story

How is platelet lysate different from PRP?
PRP contains whole platelets. In platelet lysate, the platelets have been processed to release their growth factors, leaving a concentrated solution of growth factors without the platelets themselves.
Is it a replacement for a steroid epidural?
For suitable patients it can be used instead of a steroid epidural, using your own blood’s growth factors rather than a steroid. Your doctor will advise which is right for you.
Why are the injections image-guided?
Ultrasound and fluoroscopy (live X-ray) let the doctor see the joint, tendon, ligament or spinal structure in real time, so the injection reaches exactly the tissue that is causing pain.
Does it work for everyone?
No treatment works the same way for every patient. Results depend on the condition, its severity, your age, general health and activity level. Your doctor will discuss realistic expectations before you decide.
How much does treatment cost?
The cost depends on the area treated and your treatment plan. Our team explains it after your consultation, before anything is scheduled. Consultation fees are on our consultation fees page.
