Bursitis Treatment Market

Bursitis is a swelling or inflammation of the bursa – a sac filled with a lubricating fluid and located between the tissues such as bone, skin, tendons and muscles. Lubricating fluid helps in reducing the friction, rubbing and irritation upon movement of a joint. Bursitis affects mainly elbow, hip, shoulder, knee and Achilles tendon.

The most common symptoms of bursitis are pain, swelling and stiffness in affected area. Sudden or severe pain may gradually build up, if there is a presence of calcium deposits. Bursitis is commonly caused by the repetitive trauma of injuries on the affected area. Improper posture at home, work and poor stretching before exercise also lead to bursitis.

A poorly or an abnormal placed bone or joint can put extra stress on a bursa sac, causing bursitis. Infection from other conditions such as thyroid disorder gout, or unusual medication reactions also increase a person’s risk for bursitis. Sometimes an infection can sometimes lead to inflammation of a bursa. In adults bursitis is very common especially those over 40 years of age.
