WHY PROLOTHERAPY RESULTS MAY NOT BE  SEEN IMMEDIATELY
This article says that Prolotherapy is dependent on the Prolotherapist treating the injured structures and that at Caring Medical we find that most people are cured of their pain with three to six Prolotherapy sessions. If by the sixth Prolotherapy session a person has not had significant improvement, we search for another cause of their pain like infection or allergy.

Not All Prolotherapists Are Created Equal
Because of the numerous calls we receive, we have a good idea, (the good, the bad, and the ugly) about what is happening with Prolotherapy around the country. Remember that not all Prolotherapists are created equal and the proof is some of the things our patients have told us and what we have heard from other physicians.

Sacroiliac pain after six Prolotherapy sessions
Q. At what point-after, say, 6+ Prolotherapy treatments by an experienced prolotherapist does one begin to consider SI (sacroiliac) joint fixation/fusion?  I am seeing some progress in terms of frequency of recurrent sublixation of the joint, but am still in a considerable amount of pain.  I know that experiences are different, but at what point do we say that this is as good as it can get with
Prolo?

Sacroiliac pain after Prolotherapy
Q. I fell off a ladder onto my back in December 1999. I had Prolotherapy for severe joint glide and the treatment did help alot, to the point where I could return to work. Unfortunately it did not last and my pain and glide became worse and I'm now off work again.  I returned to Prolotherapy injections with marginal improvement but nothing close to the original success. Can you tell me what percentage you would use for the injections?  How many injections per compromised ligament would you suggest so I can discuss this with my Prolotherapist?

What Could Be Wrong When Prolotherapy Doesn't Work?
The key to Prolotherapy is twofold:  you must have a Prolotherapy-Responsive Ailment (PRA), in other words, a pain that Prolotherapy is effective at treating and you must get a sufficient inflammatory response to the area to stimulate repair through the process of Prolotherapy.

There is no known cure for arthritis. Prolotherapy and nutritional supplements can help alleviate, reverse, or end arthritic pain by treating an underlying cause that contributes to degenerative disease, ligament laxity. Strengthening ligaments and other connective tissue can help prevent bone on bone arthritis from developing.
