Typical running injuries

Achilles Tendinitis / Tendinopathy

The most common problem in runners (11%). Degeneration of the Achilles tendon due to overload. Pain in the heel area, morning stiffness, tendon thickening. Chronic form does not respond to NSAIDs and physiotherapy. MIBRAR regenerates the tendon in 3-4 months.

Plantar Fasciitis

Pain in the heel with the first steps in the morning. Overload of the plantar fascia during running (load up to 3 times body weight). MIBRAR: regeneration of the fascia without cortisone.

Runner's Knee

Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) - pain on the outer surface of the knee. Chondromalacia patellae - pain behind the kneecap when going downhill. MIBRAR: regeneration of cartilage and resolution of tract inflammation.

Patellar Tendinopathy

Pain below the kneecap. Especially when running downhill and jumping. MIBRAR: regeneration of the patellar ligament.

Bone Stress Reactions

Precursors to stress fractures. Pain in the tibia, metatarsal bones. On MRI - bone marrow edema without a fracture line. MIBRAR accelerates healing and prevents fractures.

Knee Osteoarthritis

In runners with more than 15 years of experience, especially with excess weight and biomechanical disorders. MIBRAR regenerates cartilage, allowing continued running.

Return to running

Weeks 1-2: rest

Walking without restrictions. Swimming, stationary bike from week 2. No running or jumping.

Weeks 3-4: recovery

Elliptical trainer. Strength exercises (upper body, core). Light stretching. Swimming without restrictions.

Weeks 5-6: light running

Run/walk intervals: 2 min run / 3 min walk x 20 min. Soft surface. Orthopedic insoles. Gradual volume increase (no more than 10% per week).

Months 2-3: progression

Continuous running 20-40 min. Tempo workouts from week 8. Intervals from week 10. Long runs from week 12.

Months 3-4: full load

Competitive pace. Full training volume. Follow-up MRI to assess regeneration.

Questions

Which running injuries does MIBRAR treat?

Achilles tendinitis, fasciitis, runner's knee, patellar tendinopathy, bone stress reactions, knee osteoarthritis.

When can I return to running?

Light running after 4-6 weeks. Intervals after 8-10 weeks. Competitions after 3-4 months.

Is there a doping risk?

No. MIBRAR uses the patient's own cells and blood. PRP and stem cells have been permitted by WADA since 2011 (local application).

Is it possible to run with knee osteoarthritis?

After MIBRAR - yes, at stages 1-2. Cartilage regeneration allows return to running. Orthopedic insoles and soft surfaces are recommended.
