简要总结
Knee Osteoarthritis significantly affects the quality of life and functional ability of individuals. The use of intra-articular Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections has gained considerable attention as a therapeutic option for knee OA. Prolotherapy, an injection-based treatment involving the administration of a proliferative agent, such as dextrose, has been investigated as a non-surgical intervention for knee OA. This trial aims to compare the outcomes of these two procedures on pain and function with conservative management.
