Bursitis - Frequently Asked Questions

• What is a bursitis?

Bursitis is due to inflammation of a bursa (fluid filled sacs found near joints, muscles, tendons, and bones, that contain fluids to protect the joints). This painful condition causes the bursa to swell. This can develop calcified deposits in the shoulder, elbow, hip or knee, which may require surgical removal if balance is not restored.

• What symptoms can be associated with bursitis?

* Inflammation and tenderness where tendons connect to bones.
* Limited motion.
* Severe and shooting pains with swelling and redness.
* Fluid filled swelling of the affected area.

• What things can make it better?

Clear up the underlying infection. Ice packs can also help relieve the pain. Restore balance to your system. Drink plenty of fluids, get proper rest and proper nutrition. Consult your physician for diagnosis and treatment.

• Why did I get it?

This can result from pressure, friction, strain, a blow to the affected body part, prolonged kneeling on a hard surface, prolonged pressure of an elbow against a table, or as a secondary symptom of arthritis or rheumatism.
