fact that tissue damage is occurring or is about to occur
- Has instensity (scale), character.

6. Bursitis
Bursae are small sacs lined with synovial membrane and lled with synovial uid; they
are located between tendons, muscles, and bony prominences. Their primary
function is to separate, lubricate, and cushion these structures. Acute bursitis occurs
primarily in the middle years and is caused by trauma. Chronic bursitis can result
from repeated trauma. Septic bursitis is caused by wound infection or bacterial in-
fection of the skin overlying the bursae. Bursitis commonly occurs in the shoulder,
hip, knee, and elbow.
Symptoms
If you have bursitis, the affected joint might:
Risk factors
Anyone can develop bursitis, but certain factors can increase your risk:
Using kneeling pads. Use some type of padding to reduce the pressure on your knees
if your job or hobby requires a lot of kneeling.
Lifting properly. Bend your knees when you lift. Failing to do so puts extra stress on
the bursae in your hips.
Wheeling heavy loads. Carrying heavy loads puts stress on the bursae in your
shoulders. Use a dolly or a wheeled cart instead.
Taking frequent breaks. Alternate repetitive tasks with rest or other activities.
Maintaining a healthy weight. Being overweight places more stress on your joints.
Exercising. Strengthening your muscles can help protect your affected joint.
Warming up and stretching before strenuous activities to protect your joints from
injury.
Diagnosis
Doctors can often diagnose bursitis based on a medical history and physical exam. Testing,
if needed, might include:
• Imaging tests. X-ray images can't positively establish the diagnosis of bursitis, but they
can help to exclude other causes of your discomfort. Ultrasound or MRI might be
used if your bursitis can't easily be diagnosed by a physical exam alone.
• Lab tests. Your doctor might order blood tests or an analysis of fluid from the inflamed
bursa to pinpoint the cause of your joint inflammation and pain.
Treatment
Bursitis generally gets better on its own. Conservative measures, such as
rest, ice and taking a pain reliever, can relieve discomfort. If conservative measures
don't work, you might require:
• Medication. If the inflammation in your bursa is caused by an infection, your doctor
might prescribe an antibiotic.
• Therapy. Physical therapy or exercises can strengthen the muscles in the affected area to
ease pain and prevent recurrence.
• Injections. A corticosteroid drug injected into the bursa can relieve pain and
inflammation in your shoulder or hip. This treatment generally works quickly and, in
many cases, one injection is all you need.
• Assistive device. Temporary use of a walking cane or other device will help relieve
pressure on the affected area.
• Surgery. Sometimes an inflamed bursa must be surgicall
Synovitis
Synovitis is an inflammation of the tissues that line a joint. It is commonly associated with specific
diseases, such as arthritis or gout, but it may also be the result of overuse or trauma. Symptoms
of synovitis may include redness, swelling, warmth and pain with joint motion.
Evaluation by a foot and ankle surgeon will help confirm the diagnosis and will help rule out other
possible concerns, such as fractures or infections. The surgeon may sample fluid from the joint to
analyze for inflammatory cells or may order x-rays or other advanced imaging tests to better
evaluate the affected joint.
Treatment for synovitis includes rest, ice, immobilization and oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, and may include steroid injections into the joint. Surgery may
be indicated in longstanding cases.
