What is Inflammation of the Bursa?

Dr. Pete, 501A Bankhead Hwy, Carrollton, GA, explains this inflammation.  

  • A painful condition is known to affect the bursae. 
  • The bursae have the vital job of protecting the bones, tendons, and muscles near all your joints. 
  • The bursa is a tiny fluid-filled sac that cushions the structure of the joints. 
  • If the bursa becomes inflamed, it creates painful movement of that joint. 
  • The joints most affected are the shoulders, elbows, and hips.

The Symptoms and Causes of this Inflammation

  • Undue pressure on the bursae around the joint
  • Repetitive motions or positions
  • Localized pain and tenderness
  • Limited flexibility
  • Possible swelling and redness

Treat Inflammed Bursa ASAP

When suffering from this inflammation, call Dr. Pete. If you do not get the correct treatment for an inflamed bursa, your pain and inflammation can become chronic due to the bursa becoming thick and enlarged. 

If you neglect to see the doctor, this inflammation can permanently reduce joint movement. This causes a decrease in your physical activity, which in turn causes muscle deterioration. 

Ways to Treat This Inflammation for a Speedy Recovery

There are successful chiropractic treatments available. Dr. Pete may recommend proven treatments such as, but not limited to, applying ice to the joint over the next 48 hours to help reduce swelling in the joint. Other treatment options may be,

  • A heating pad
  • Soaking in a warm bath

He may recommend physical modalities such as electric muscle stimulation and ultrasound to reduce inflammation and make it easier for you to rebuild muscle strength. Chiropractic adjustments can also help relieve stress on overburdened bursae.
