Musculoskeletal Injuries (MSI) refer to damage of muscular or skeletal systems, which is usually due to strenuous activity. In other words, MSIs are any injury that affects the bones, muscles, ligaments, nerves, or tendons resulting in pain. 

MSDs or Musculoskeletal Disorders involve disorders and diseases which impact the body's mobility or musculoskeletal network of muscles, ligaments, and tendons.

Musculoskeletal injuries have a high prevalence, making them the most common form of injuries globally.

The following are the most prevalent causes of musculoskeletal injuries:

• Aging (wear and tear develops with passing the time and degeneration process)

• Accidental damage consists of doing the same thing again and over, poor posture, and heavy lifting

• Poor lifestyle, lack of healthy fitness, and diet habits

There are at least seven different types of elbow disorders. Read on to learn about their symptoms and causes.

• Medial epicondylitis

• Lateral epicondylitis: Symptoms such as pain or burning occur along the outside of the elbow. You also may experience problems with gripping.

• Olecranon bursitis: Swelling, pain, and difficulty moving the elbow

• Osteoarthritis: Pain, difficulty bending the elbow, a locking sensation in the elbow, a grating sound during movement, and swelling

• Ligament strain and sprains: Pain, joint instability, swelling, the problem with the range of motion

• Dislocation or fracture: Visual changes to the elbow, inability to move the joint, pain

• Osteochondritis dissecans: Pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow, trouble extending the arm, and a feeling that the joint is locking could indicate this condition. 

The backbone is a structure that supports your body and allows you to walk, bend, and move around. The rest of the musculature helps maintain balance and movement of the trunk. The spine, often known as the backbone, is the major support component of the body. It joins the various sections of the musculoskeletal system together. Injuries of the back, spinal cord disorders, and certain other issues might harm the spine and result in back discomfort.

Treatment includes:

• Medications: back pain requires prescription drugs as this pain is not easily treated with OTC NSAIDs

• Physical therapy: using transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, heat and cold therapy, therapeutic ultrasound to the muscles of the back and connective tissue, and other myofascial release methods can effectively relieve pain

• Complementary therapies: shiatsu, yoga, and chiropractic can relieve back discomfort

• Surgery can be fusion, surgical removal of vertebrae, and discectomy

Stem Cells are the natural repair process of your body parts. SCs are present in our fat cells, bone marrow cells, and in this case, we use Mesenchymal Stem Cells from donor cord blood. If you place the stem cells over the area of damage, then these cells can lead to the activation of new and healthy cells. This healing process is what our body needs. Stem Cell Therapy helps boost body repair mechanisms and introduces new Stem Cells.

Musculoskeletal Injuries and disorders impact the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints that make up the musculoskeletal system. OA, tendonitis, osteoporosis strains, and even sprains are all common musculoskeletal injuries and illnesses. Inflammatory response, tiredness, discomfort, restricted range of motion, and full loss of mobility are all common symptoms of musculoskeletal problems.

Stem Cell studies and discoveries are contributing to better non-pharmacologic therapy options for MSIs-related pain. These treatments can lessen the necessity of repeated drug administration and offer long-term benefits by enhancing patient satisfaction and lowering healthcare expenditures. 

Stem Cell Therapy provides promising and exciting new options for musculoskeletal pain therapy. In order to minimize damage and improve musculoskeletal pain conditions, Stem Cells generate and release a wide variety of cell regulators as growth factors. Innovative stem cells are used in stem cell treatment which is competent to establish new cells for replacing the older ones. 

When antibodies or cells destroy the body's cells, it is termed an autoimmune disorder. A lot of autoimmune diseases impact the body’s structures as connective tissues, cartilages, and bones. 

Connective tissues play a fundamental role in the musculoskeletal system.

In the case of the elbow, the most prevalent autoimmune disorder is rheumatoid arthritis. RA is an autoimmune disease that affects joints causing discomfort, stiffness, and inflammation. Joints may also seem red, hot, rigid, and sensitive in these conditions.

Following are a few more autoimmune disorders that affect elbows:

• Osteoarthritis

• Psoriatic arthritis

• Elbow bursitis

• Lupus related arthritis

• Tendonitis 

• Epicondylitis

• Olecranon bursitis

The FDA-approved Stem Cell Therapy has a very low rate of risks and side effects.

Whereas some common side effects observed after receiving Stem Cell Therapy are infection at the site of injection, sore throat, vomiting, nausea,  and inflammation. There are a few rare but serious risks related to Stem Cell Therapy, including bleeding and implantation failure.

Risk factors associated with Stem Cell Therapy are already very low and rare. In cases where patients show side effects, conservative management is always helpful. In case of infections and inflammation, over-the-counter medications can help improve side effects. Preoperative care and patient record also play a vital role in managing and minimizing risk factors beforehand. 

Stem Cells Therapy has a great potential to be more effective for treating Musculoskeletal Injuries than previous methods and carries less risk. SCT has a great potential to emerge as one solution to all human body problems.  

All the treatment options for Musculoskeletal Injuries have been temporary options for just treating the symptoms. With the invention of Stem Cells Replacement Therapy, hopes and prognosis of the disease treatment have been raised. It has the potential to be more effective than previous methods and also carries less risk.
