Sports-related tendon and ligament injuries are common among athletes and active individuals, often resulting in prolonged recovery and compromised performance. Traditional management strategies, including physiotherapy and surgical repair, may not yield optimal outcomes, prompting growing interest in biologic therapies such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and other regenerative modalities.
