In fact, I found that the treatments offered were rather invasive the medications often excessive and yet neither ensured any long term relief. I should say that I was quite surprised to discover that 1 in 33 people will develop bursitis at any given time yet the options available for treatment and pain relief have not really improved for quite a long time. At the time I was currently midway through my Medical Science studies so he asked if I could research bursitis in the knee for him. It was then that my father became very skeptical and refused the injection. the doctor did not seem very surprised, but instead then told my father that he should now have a steroidal cortisone injection to treat his knee bursitis. I cannot recall exactly the number of syringes that my father said were needed to empty the fluid however, I do recall how painful he said that it was, and also how upset he was when it subsequently redeveloped only a few days later. It was recommended by his doctor to drain the fluid from the sac with a syringe due to it being so large, as well as its physical appearance (even until today my fatherвЂ™s bursitis was among the largest I have ever seen on the knee). His doctor told him that the impact from the fall had caused a condition called bursitis, and that fluid was accumulating inside a small sac known as a bursa. However, about a week following the fall a visible lump, or should I say вЂsac of fluidвЂ™ began to appear just under his left knee.ДЄfter perhaps a week had passed the actual sac of fluid in his knee had became so big that he became very concerned and decided to visit his doctor to have a look and see what was happening. other than a couple of bruises and a few minor scratches. At the time he seemed to come off quite well overallвЂ¦.

At the time he was holding one of his grandchildren, and so as he fell he ensured that he took the full brunt of the impact as he hit the floor. This occurred several years ago due to my father taking an ungraceful and unfortunate fall during a family barbeque. Personally, my first experience with joint injury was not that of my own but instead that of my fatherвЂ™s when he developed bursitis. Having suffered myself, I understand only to well how painful and hard it can be to effectively treat joint pain, inflammation and swelling.
