Coming soonBursitis is an inflammatory condition affecting one or more bursae, the small, synovium-lined, fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction between bones, tendons, muscles, and skin near joints.
Primarily involving the musculoskeletal system, it frequently develops in adults subjected to repetitive mechanical strain, prolonged focal pressure, direct trauma, or underlying systemic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or gout.
Pathophysiologically, sustained irritation or infection prompts synovial proliferation and excess fluid accumulation within the bursa.
Clinically, bursitis manifests as localized pain, swelling, tenderness, warmth, and restricted range of motion, most commonly impacting major joints including the shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee.
