The orthopedic surgeons at Orthopedics and Joint Replacement at Mercy are specialists in diagnosing and treating bursitis and tendonitis. Patients from across the Baltimore region turn to the orthopedic expertise of our doctors when suffering from pain due to bursitis and tendonitis.
Bursitis and tendonitis are common overuse injuries in sports and general overhead activities. Bursitis is most common in the hip, shoulder and elbow. Tendonitis is most common in the shoulder, elbow, wrist and heel. Bursitis and tendonitis most often are caused by repetitive motions but also can be caused by trauma to the joint. The tendon and bursa, the fluid-filled sac which prevents friction with motion, become inflamed when they are pinched between the joint during repetitive motion.
Bursitis and tendonitis symptoms include:
Bursitis and tendonitis most often can be diagnosed during a physical exam. An orthopedic surgeon may request imaging tests such as X-rays, ultrasound or MRIs, to rule out other joint conditions that have similar symptoms.
Bursitis and tendonitis treatment can include:
If symptoms persist, surgery to increase the space available for the tendons is considered.
