Doctor States he is Perfect After Ankle Stem Cells with Dr. Lox
Dennis M. Lox, MD, has treated numerous physicians with stem cell therapy for a variety of orthopedic and sports problems, including ankles. A Pediatrician suffering from chronic ankle pain sought the care of Dennis M. Lox, MD, after researching ankle stem cells and hearing of Dr. Lox’s reputation. Dr. Lox has treated difficult ankle cases where there is seemingly no answer except considering ankle fusion. This prospect of ankle fusion surgery often leads patients to seek alternative treatment options, including stem cell therapy. Knees and hips are more commonly replaced, ankles are more complex and ankle replacement often fails, leading to recommendations for ankle fusion instead. Ankle fusion results in an abnormal walking pattern placing extra stress and wear and tear on other joints or the spine.
Dr. Lox treated this physician, a pediatric specialist with ankle stem cells as he did not want an ankle fusion. The pediatrician was delighted to consider an alternative treatment strategy besides surgery to his ankle. Stem cell therapy for the ankle is not associated with a recovery period as surgery would require and does not require physical therapy, crutches or even pain pills following the stem cell treatment.
The optimal goal would be to repair or a regenerative healing effect which halts or reverses the ankle damage. Typically the hallmark of degenerative arthritis is the progressive nature of the disorder. Therefore halting progression or reversing this even to a slight degree is extremely important considering the option of an irreversible ankle fusion surgery.
This pediatric physician was so elated one year after his ankle stem cell therapy he proclaimed to Dr. Lox he was now perfect. Indeed high praise coming from a medical doctor. Understanding the exact science of stem cells and Regenerative Medicine is a bit more complicated. However, science is truly fascinating. The research being done in so many medical fields with stem cells and Regenerative Medicine is truly amazing.
