What is Knee Bursitis?

Knee bursitis is the inflammation of a bursa, a small, fluid-filled sac located near your knee joint. Bursae act as cushions between bones, tendons, and muscles, reducing friction. When a bursa in the knee becomes inflamed, it can cause:

  • Pain and tenderness around the knee joint 🦵

  • Swelling and a soft, noticeable lump 💧

  • Redness and warmth in the affected area 🔥

  • Stiffness and limited range of motion

     

Knee bursitis is often caused by repetitive kneeling, a direct blow to the knee, or conditions like arthritis. Our goal is to not only treat the immediate symptoms but also address the root cause to prevent future flare-ups.

 

Our Integrated Treatment Approach

Our comprehensive treatment program for knee bursitis combines the expertise of our orthopedic specialists with targeted advanced physiotherapy.

Orthopedic Management

Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation by our orthopedic specialist. They will:

  • Conduct a detailed physical examination to assess the location and extent of the swelling and tenderness.

  • Discuss your medical history and lifestyle to identify potential causes, such as your occupation or sports activities.

  • Order diagnostic imaging, such as an ultrasound, to confirm the diagnosis and rule out other knee conditions.

  • Develop a personalized non-surgical plan that may include:

    • Medication: Prescribing anti-inflammatory drugs to help manage pain and swelling.

    • Fluid Aspiration: In some cases, the orthopedic doctor may use a needle to drain the excess fluid from the bursa to provide immediate relief. This is often followed by a corticosteroid injection to reduce inflammation.

    • Activity Modification: Providing guidance on how to adjust daily activities to reduce pressure on the knee.

       

Advanced Physiotherapy

Our advanced physiotherapy program is crucial for long-term management of knee bursitis. Our expert physiotherapists will guide you through a tailored program designed to:

  • Reduce Pain and Inflammation: Utilizing therapeutic modalities like ice, ultrasound, and electrotherapy to alleviate discomfort.

  • Improve Flexibility: We prescribe specific stretching exercises for the muscles surrounding the knee—such as the quadriceps and hamstrings—to reduce tension and stress on the bursa.

  • Strengthen Supporting Muscles: We focus on strengthening the muscles that stabilize the knee joint, especially the glutes and core. Strong, balanced muscles provide better support and reduce the load on the bursa.

  • Correct Biomechanics and Movement Patterns: Our therapists will analyze your movement patterns and provide guidance on proper form and technique for daily activities and sports to prevent recurrence.
