There’s an old Southern saying: “That Dog Won’t Hunt.”
t’s what folks say when something just isn’t going to work—no matter how many times you try.
In medicine, we see the same story play out every day. Another round of steroids. Another anti-inflammatory. Another brace, another pill.
But here’s the truth: if the same approach hasn’t worked the last three times, it’s time to stop pretending it will magically start working now. That dog won’t hunt.
Precision Regenerative Medicine at Pain Experts in Plano
The modern solution to chronic joint pain isn’t more steroids or anti-inflammatories—it’s precision regenerative medicine. At Pain Experts in Plano, I use your body’s own healing potential—platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow–derived cells, and orthobiologic techniques—to actually restore function rather than just mask pain.
These are not “fringe” treatments—they’re evidence-based, performed under image guidance, and trusted by elite athletes and high-performing leaders who can’t afford downtime or surgical risks.
When you stop doing what doesn’t work and start investing in what does—you regain movement, strength, and confidence. That’s when life starts to open up again.
If your old treatments just aren’t hunting anymore, maybe it’s time to try a smarter approach.
Schedule a consultation with me at Pain Experts and let’s see what’s really going on with your joints—because staying active and strong isn’t just about avoiding pain. It’s about protecting the life you’ve built.
