I Have Bursitis. So What Does That Mean?

Throughout the body, there are approximately 160 small fluid filled sacs called Bursae. Due to overuse, poor mechanics, pressure, or other underlying conditions, these membranes become ‘inflamed’ (this is the ‘itis’ part in 'bursitis') as the fluid thickens and produces excess fluid..
Bursitis treatments are usually conservative. Task modification helps reduce irritation, which prevents the condition from worsening. Strengthening addresses weak muscles or tendons, instability, and poor mechanics.
