Ultrasound therapy could prevent osteoarthritis if you’ve been injured

If you’ve injured your joints after a fall or exercise, you might want to try a few sessions of non-invasive ultrasound therapy.

It stops inflammation in the joints and reduces the risk of developing osteoarthritis years later.

Researchers at The University of Alabama in Huntsville found that continuous low-intensity ultrasound encouraged key immune cells called macrophages to shift from an inflammatory state to supporting tissue repair.
