What is bursitis?
If you’ve ever felt a sharp, nagging pain in your shoulder, hip, or knee after a workout, or even just from doing the same motion over and over, you might be dealing with bursitis.
Your body has small, fluid-filled sacs called bursae that act like cushions between bones and soft tissue, reducing friction so joints move smoothly. When a bursa becomes irritated, usually from overuse or repeated pressure, it becomes inflamed and painful.
It’s a common sports injury, but it can sneak up on anyone, weekend warriors, gardeners, or folks who kneel or reach repetitively. At Cavanaugh Chiropractic in Lafayette, we help calm the inflammation and address the movement patterns behind it.
