Conditions and Injuries Helped by LEDs
Conditions known to be helped by LED light therapy

osteoarthritis
sports injuries such as knee, ankle, shoulder, etc
burns, scrapes, and pain relief from cuts
ulcers
macular degeneration
laser burns to the retina
fibromyalgia pains
preventing bruising and inflammation if it’s fresh injury
bunion pain
diabetic neuropathy
tendinitis
myofascial pain
minimize recent nerve injury
wound healing, especially in diabetics
bursitis

Conditions LED light therapy may or may not help

wrinkles, aging, acne, spots (see skin section)
bone healing (it might help)
existing bruises and inflammation
back pains (hit or miss)
rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, poison ivy

Conditions LED light therapy does not help

headache
muscle ache from working out
infection
scars
bunion reduction
reverse osteoarthritis bone deformation
any injury too deep or beneath bone like the brain

FDA allows advertising red and infrared for minor pains and mild arthritis. Red has been used to help halt dry macular degeneration which may have FDA approval. The following have FDA approval for specific devices: infrared 880 nm for diabetic peripheral neuropathy, 660 nm red for mouth ulcers in children on a type of chemo, “Titan” intense infrared device for wrinkles in a clinical setting, very intense (harmful) infrared devices for spots, and blue or blue/red for acne. There have been excellent results reported for tendonitis, shoulders, knees, small joints, and fibromyalgia. For most soft-tissue injuries beneath the skin, the pain goes from an 8 to a 2 (on a scale of 10) after an hour or two of treatment with good home-use LED devices. For exposed injuries like burns and retina injuries, only 1 to 10 minutes of LED light is used, depending on the device. Applying LED light for too long cancels the benefits, so the time of application is hard to determine and important: too little light and there is little benefit, and too much light and there is no benefit. The pain relief can be amazing in burns, cuts, and other wounds even if wound healing is not faster. The increase in the speed of healing can be directly measured in the injured retinas of rabbit. It does not help bruises. Stubbed toes can go from being purple-black to pink in one treatment. Serious injuries seem to benefit from 3 to 6 treatments/day (as the pain returns) instead of one treatment/day. Strangely, tendons sore from working-out seem to not receive any pain relief, but chronic tendinitis seems to benefit greatly. It is beneficial only about 30% of the time in back pain. Companies have made various strange claims that I do not believe: yellow for wrinkles, green for cancer, and blue for wrinkles. Recent serious injuries benefit from several treatments per day.

Why does it work?

The wavelengths from 600 to 900 nm pass through blood and water in tissue more easily than other wavelengths. About 35% of the energy in this range is absorbed by a specific “proton pump” (cytochrome c oxidase, CCO, “complex IV”) in mitochondria. The light at 4 specific wavelengths “kick-start” the CCO pump into producing more cellular energy, ATP. The CCO pump is very similar in all animals because it evolved from light-assisted bacteria that were part of the first mitochondria. The absorption spectrum of blood suddenly drops off to allow these wavelengths to pass through which indicates the evolution of hemoglobin may have been influenced by cells benefiting from these wavelengths. The immediate increase in respiration that sun causes by this mechanism may help animals increase their activity during the day, in addition to the heat provided by the sun that promotes the release of oxygen (myoglobin also absorbs these wavelengths). These wavelengths of the Sun can provide the optimum 4 J/cm^2 at a depth of 1 inch (using 1% transmission) after 4 hours of exposure in bright Sun, reaching all skin and a large percentage of muscle tissue in
