Wharton's Jelly Regenerative Therapy for Pain in Westchester, NY

At Westchester Podiatric Medicine – Nerve & Wound Healing Institute, Dr. John Marzano offers Wharton's Jelly biologic therapy for foot and ankle pain. This non-surgical regenerative treatment supports the body's natural healing response in damaged tendons, ligaments, and joints rather than simply masking pain.

What is Wharton's Jelly?

Wharton's Jelly is a regenerative biologic derived from umbilical cord tissue that contains growth factors and extracellular matrix components. In podiatric and musculoskeletal care, it is used to support the healing environment in injured or degenerative tissue.

Conditions it is commonly used for

  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Achilles tendinitis
  • Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction
  • Peroneal tendinitis
  • Chronic ankle instability
  • Osteoarthritis of the foot and ankle
  • Capsulitis
  • Morton's neuroma

What the procedure involves

  • A minimally invasive in-office injection into the affected tendon, ligament, or joint
  • Often performed with ultrasound guidance for precision
  • Typically takes under 30 minutes
  • Most patients return to normal activity the same day
  • Only mild temporary soreness is expected

Wharton's Jelly therapy supports tissue repair rather than symptom relief, making it a non-surgical option for chronic or degenerative conditions that have not improved with conservative care. It avoids systemic medication side effects and can be combined with orthotics, physical therapy, and rehabilitation.
