Hello
everyone, how is life treating you all?
I
am in a great deal of pain, yet again, with my right leg and my left
knee isn't much better.
I
have bursitis again in my right knee, I went to the GP yesterday and
he confirmed that it is bursitis. If you are wondering what is
bursitis, it is a conditions that happens when your bursae which is a
small fluid-filled sack near your joint becomes irritated and
swollen. The bursae play a key role in helping your joints move
smoothly, they cushion your bones and tendon and ligaments as they
move against each other.
Treatment
depends on the cause of the bursitis but generally treatment aims to
relieve the symptoms as much as possible while healing takes place.
Treatment includes pain relief medications, ice packs and
anti-inflammatory medications or corticosteroids injections. I have
been told to rest the leg and stay off it as much as possible
The
pain is so bad I cry out loud because of it and this is distressing
for family members, I am taking it slow and one day at a time.
Ouch. That hurt just reading it . Take care of yourself girl.
