Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Group 1 - intra articular injection of platelet rich plasma  Patients will be recruited from the OPD after applying ACR criteria & KL Grade Il and Ill on X-RAY KNEE AP/LAT (STANDING) and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria . Randomisation will be done via a computer-generated random sequence. VAS, WOMAC, Serum Coll2-1 NO2 (VAS, WORMS will be taken Before Ist PRP Intraarticular injection. Then USG-guided Ist Intraarticular injection of PRP will be given. After I month VAS, WOMAC will be taken and USG-guided 2nd PRP Intraarticular injection will be given. After 6 month VAS, WOMAC will be taken. VAS, WOMAC, Ser. Coll2-INO2, X-Ray, MRI study (WORMS) will be taken after 9 months to study the effect. 
Comparator Agent  Group 2 - Intraarticular Injection of Normal Saline  Patients will be recruited from the OPD after applying ACR criteria & KL Grade Il and Ill on X-RAY KNEE AP/LAT (STANDING) and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria . Randomisation will be done via a computer-generated random sequence. VAS, WOMAC, Serum Coll2-1 NO2 (VAS, WORMS will be taken Before Ist Normal Saline Intraarticular injection. Then USG-guided Ist Intraarticular injection of Normal Saline will be given. After I month VAS, WOMAC will be taken and USG-guided 2nd Normal Saline Intraarticular injection will be given. After 6 month VAS, WOMAC will be taken. VAS, WOMAC, Ser. Coll2-INO2, X-Ray, MRI study (WORMS) will be taken after 9 months to study the effect.
