Tendon injuries, such as tennis elbow, Achilles tendinopathy, or rotator cuff tendinitis, are not only painful but can also significantly limit daily activities. For patients seeking a non-surgical and natural treatment option, Autologous Blood Injection (ABI) is emerging as a promising solution for chronic tendon injuries.

What is Autologous Blood Injection?
Autologous Blood Injection involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s own blood and injecting it directly into the affected tendon. The goal is to stimulate the body’s natural healing response by delivering growth factors and healing cells right to the site of injury.

How Does It Work?
The blood contains healing components such as platelets, white blood cells, and growth factors. When injected into the injured tendon, these components help:

  • Trigger a healing response
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Promote tissue regeneration
  • Strengthen the tendon structure over time

This process is similar in concept to Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, but ABI uses whole blood rather than processed plasma.

Conditions Treated with Autologous Blood Injection
Dr. Om Prakash Gupta has successfully used ABI to treat various chronic tendon conditions, including:

  • Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
  • Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)
  • Achilles Tendinopathy
  • Patellar Tendinopathy (Jumper’s Knee)
  • Rotator Cuff Tendinitis
  • Plantar Fasciitis

 

What to Expect During the Procedure

  • A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
  • The affected area is cleaned and numbed.
  • Using ultrasound guidance, the blood is injected directly into the tendon.
  • The procedure typically takes about 15–30 minutes.

 

Post-Injection Care

  • Mild discomfort may be felt for a few days.
  • Patients are advised to rest the treated area and avoid strenuous activity.
  • A structured rehabilitation or physiotherapy program may be followed to optimize recovery.

 

Benefits of Autologous Blood Injection

  • Minimally invasive
  • Utilizes the body’s natural healing properties
  • No risk of allergic reaction (since it’s your own blood)
  • May help avoid surgery in chronic cases
  • Faster return to daily activities

If you’ve been struggling with chronic tendon pain that hasn’t responded to medications, rest, or physical therapy, ABI could be the breakthrough you need.
