“Old Shoulder Injury for 5 Years—Can’t Lift Your Arm? Pain Affecting Sleep?” Dr. Hsuang-Fang Wei’s PRF Regenerative Therapy Non-Surgical Repair Case
Mr. Xie, the owner of Hongda International, has maintained a regular fitness routine for many years, yet he has been plagued by a five-year-old shoulder injury that prevented him from raising his arm smoothly and even caused him to wake up in pain when turning over in bed at night. Following a precise evaluation by orthopedic specialist Dr. Hsu Fang-wei at Jianli Clinic in Songshan District, Taipei, he underwent “PRF Regenerative Repair Therapy” combined with “ultrasound-guided injection.”By extracting "regenerative golden gel" from his own blood—free of anticoagulants—the 3D fibrin scaffold releases growth factors over an extended period to repair the ligaments. Just 2–3 days after a single treatment, his condition improved by 80%, successfully restoring the flexibility and strength of his shoulder without surgery.

A Tough Guy’s Secret Pain: A Five-Year Struggle with a Shoulder Injury So Severe It Wakes Him Up at Night
“I work out regularly, but my arm just seizes up, making it impossible to lift weights!” Mr. Xie
, a business owner, has a habit of working out, but a five-year-old shoulder injury has become his biggest nightmare.This long-standing injury not only frequently causes him to hit a wall during workouts and prevents him from generating power, but in severe cases, even turning over in bed at night can wake him up with excruciating pain in his shoulder. Over the past five years, he has tried numerous conservative treatments without finding a cure, leaving Mr. Xie, who loves sports, feeling incredibly discouraged.
After five years of shoulder pain, Mr. Xie refused to settle for mere pain relief. Instead, he opted for ultrasound-guided injections to precisely target and eliminate the source of his pain.
On the strong recommendation of a friend, Mr. Xie visited Jianli Clinic in Taipei’s Songshan District to seek professional assistance from the orthopedic team. Dr. Hsu Fang-wei performed a dynamic assessment on Mr. Xie using advanced ultrasound, precisely identifying the locations of damage to the deep tendons and ligaments.Dr. Hsu explained, “The shoulder is a complex structure, and five years of chronic injury means the tissues have lost their ability to heal themselves. Simply relieving pain won’t address the underlying structural issues.” To ensure Mr. Xie could safely return to the gym without undergoing surgery, Dr. Hsu developed a customized treatment plan for him—[PRF Repair Therapy + Ultrasound-Guided Injection].
What is PRF therapy? Why is it called the "Golden Repair Gel"?
For Mr. Xie’s recurrent and persistent ligament and tendon tears, PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) has demonstrated powerful regenerative benefits:
- Purely natural, safe, and gentle: 100% extracted from the patient’s own blood, with no added anticoagulants, it offers exceptional biocompatibility, making it a more natural and safer option.
- 3D scaffold structure for long-lasting repair: PRF features a unique 3D fibrin scaffold structure that firmly anchors growth factors at the site of injury, releasing repair factors steadily and over the long term to aid in the regrowth and repair of fragile ligaments and tendons.
- Powerful anti-inflammatory effects and pain relief: The abundant growth factors rapidly combat chronic inflammation in the affected area, significantly reducing joint swelling, stiffness, and the sensation of locking.
- Key Advantage: Ultrasound-Guided, Never "Blind Injection": Dr. Hsu uses high-resolution ultrasound guidance throughout the procedure to ensure that every drop of the precious repair gel is injected precisely and accurately into the damaged tear site, maximizing therapeutic efficacy.
Mr. Xie cheered happily, "I can finally lift, rotate, and put weight on my shoulder!"
After receiving Dr. Hsu’s precise PRF injections, the speed of his recovery left Mr. Xie in awe:
“It’s truly amazing! Just two or three days after my first session, I felt an 80% improvement! My shoulder, which used to be completely locked up and in excruciating pain, can now be raised and rotated with ease—I can even start using it with force again. Regaining this level of mobility without surgery is absolutely worth it!”

[FAQ] Chronic Shoulder Pain and PRF Therapy
Q1: How does PRF differ from the PRP we often hear about?
Q2: Why is ultrasound guidance required for PRF treatment?
Q3: Who is a good candidate for PRF therapy?
Q4: What will it feel like after the PRF injection? Will it be sore for a long time, like a regular shot?
Q5: I have had "frozen shoulder" for many years, which causes my shoulder to lock up. Can PRF help?
Very helpful! Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is often accompanied by deep soft tissue inflammation and fibrosis. PRF not only repairs microtears, but the growth factors it releases also help soften and lubricate the joint capsule. When combined with "shoulder joint mobilization" or physical therapy, it can more effectively restore range of motion in a stiff joint.
Q6: What are the advantages of PRF therapy compared to surgery?
