  • A bursa is a small flat sac lined with synovium.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The two membranous surfaces of the bursa are normally in contact, separated only by a thin film of lubricating fluid.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • A bursa reduces friction, usually between tendons and bones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The cause of bursitis is overuse of the structures surrounding the bursa, resulting in excessive friction and inflammation of the bursa walls.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Bursitis is often secondary to other conditions such as tendonitis. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Contributing factors include\n
      \n
    • Muscle imbalances<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Poor biomechanics<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Postural dysfunctions (scoliosis or kyphosis)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Lack of flexibility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Less frequently\n
        \n
      • Acute trauma<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Infection<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Osteoarthritis<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Gout<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Rheumatoid arthritis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Acute traumatic bursitis frequently occurs in the olecranon, trochanter, ischiatic, prepatellar or calcaneal bursae. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Acute bursitis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • The bursa is compressed and irritated by the surrounding structures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Inflammation, heat, and swelling are present.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • The pain is deep and burning, at rest or during activity. It may refer to some distance from the bursa. Pain may disrupt sleep, especially if compressed.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Range of motion of the affected joint is restricted. Distal or proximal joints may have reduced range of motion if there is a muscle or fascia crossing the affected bursa.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Other conditions, such as tendonitis, may be present.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Chronic Bursitis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Pain or soreness is experienced with activity or with direct compression. Pain is more localized to the bursa.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and adhesions are present.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • The range of motion of the affected joint is less restricted than in the acute stage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
