I'm really confused about whether to go for ACL arthroscopic surgery or if PRP treatment would work better for my knee. How effective is PRP for knee issues and what's the average cost per injection in India? Need some advice on which option might be better for me.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is often considered as a non-surgical alternative for certain knee conditions. It's important to note that the effectiveness of PRP versus surgery depends on various factors, including the severity of the knee issue and individual patient characteristics PRP treatment for an ACL tear can vary in cost, but in India, expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ20,000 per session, with some clinics offering packages that include multiple sessions. The total cost will depend on the severity of the tear, the number of sessions needed, and the specific clinic
