I want to try Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) to heal my Inguinal Hernia as recommended by Dr. Though PRP is used by dermatologists, Dentists and orthopedic surgeons for conditions other than IH. P.S. I want to get in touch with someone who has practical experience of PRP.

Inguinal hernia is due to weakness of abdominal muscles. It is common in your age. Platelet rich plasma is for platelet deficiency. Both are unrelated. You must have been recommended PRP for fixing your platelet count. Only after your platelets come to normal can you be operated for hernia. Surgery is the definitive treatment. Hernia surgery is not a major operation. Please get in touch with your doctor again to clear any confusion about PRP.
