TCM Diagnosis for Bursitis

Bursitis is a condition characterized by the irritation and the inflammation of the bursa. Bursa is typically a sac-like structure that contains lubricating fluid. It is found between the bones, tendons, ligaments, and skin. It lubricates the joints and keeps friction between bones in control. Doctors diagnose bursitis based on the symptoms of an individual. Diagnostic tests are carried out to find the exact cause of bursitis. Some of the tests carried out for diagnosis of bursitis are:
-- Aspiration to Check for Infection or Gout
-- An X-ray of the affected area to check for arthritis or bony spurs
-- Blood tests
-- MRI scans

The doctor generally advises rest and protection of the injured area with regular icing and compression. Treatment of bursitis involves:
--  Prohibition of activities that might aggravate the condition
-- Giving proper rest to the damaged or injured area
-- Regular icing and massage of the area
-- Taking OTC anti-inflammatory drugs/medicines
