Bursitis is a condition that occurs when the bursa, a small fluid-filled sac that acts as a cushion between bones, tendons, and muscles, becomes inflamed. The bursa is found in many joints throughout the body and helps to reduce friction between the various tissues as they move against one another. Bursitis can occur in any joint. It is most common in the shoulder, hip, elbow, and knee joints.
The most common causes of bursitis are overuse or repetitive movements that put pressure on the bursa, prolonged pressure on the joint, trauma or injury to the joint or bursa, and underlying medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, gout, or diabetes.
The symptoms of bursitis can vary depending on the affected joint but may include:
The current treatments for bursitis vary depending on the severity of the condition and the underlying cause. Treatment for bursitis may include rest, ice, pain relievers, and anti-inflammatory medications, along with physical therapy and, in some cases, corticosteroid injections or surgical intervention.
While these treatments can be effective for many individuals, they do have limitations and potential side effects. For example, long-term use of pain relievers can lead to digestive problems, and corticosteroid injections can cause joint damage over time.
SoftWave therapy is a treatment option that uses low-intensity shockwaves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process and promote tissue regeneration. SoftWave therapy has been shown to effectively treat a variety of conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, chronic pain, and chronic wounds.
SoftWave therapy works to treat bursitis by promoting the body’s natural healing processes in the affected area. The unfocused shockwaves used in SoftWave therapy stimulate the tissues in the affected area, promoting increased blood flow and the release of growth factors.
Increased blood flow to the affected area helps to reduce inflammation by increasing the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. The release of growth factors also helps to stimulate tissue regeneration and repair, leading to the formation of new blood vessels and improved healing.
SoftWave therapy offers several potential benefits for individuals with bursitis. These benefits include:
