Bursitis

Bursitis: Inflammation of the Joint Cushions

Bursitis is a painful inflammatory condition affecting the bursae, which are small, fluid-filled sacs that act as cushions between bones, tendons, and muscles. When these bursae become irritated or inflamed, they cause joint pain, swelling, tenderness, and restricted movement. Bursitis commonly affects the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and heel, often due to repetitive motion, excessive pressure, or prolonged joint stress. At Kasare Hospital, our expert orthopedic team provides specialized care and advanced treatments to relieve bursitis symptoms and restore joint functionality for long-term relief.

Comprehensive Treatment Approaches for Bursitis

Treatment for bursitis focuses on reducing inflammation, alleviating pain, and preventing recurrence. Mild cases often improve with rest, ice application, anti-inflammatory medications, and physical therapy to restore joint mobility and strength. In more severe cases, corticosteroid injections may be administered to reduce inflammation and discomfort. For chronic or recurrent bursitis, advanced treatments such as aspiration (fluid drainage) or minimally invasive surgical procedures may be necessary to remove the inflamed bursa. At Kasare Hospital, we offer personalized treatment plans, integrating modern techniques and evidence-based therapies for effective bursitis management and recovery.

Rehabilitation and Prevention for Long-Term Joint Health

Rehabilitation plays a critical role in ensuring full recovery from bursitis and preventing future flare-ups. Our physiotherapy specialists at Kasare Hospital design customized exercise programs that focus on gentle stretching, joint strengthening, and posture correction to minimize stress on the affected bursa. Patients are also educated on ergonomic modifications, proper body mechanics, and activity adjustments to reduce the risk of re-injury. Whether your bursitis results from sports injuries, occupational strain, or age-related wear and tear, our dedicated orthopedic care ensures a pain-free, active lifestyle. If you are experiencing persistent joint pain, swelling, or restricted movement, consult our experts at Kasare Hospital for a comprehensive diagnosis and effective bursitis treatment solutions.
