MANILA, Philippines — Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto on Sunday said he underwent a procedure for his knees that will limit his activities over the next few days.

In a Facebook post, Sotto said he underwent a procedure called “platelet-rich plasma” (PRP) for both of his knees — injections commonly used to treat torn tendons, tendinitis, muscle injuries, arthritis-related pain, and joint injuries.
