If you participate in any exercise program, at some point there is a very good chance; you will get hurt. Although you can take steps to prevent injury over time, it is rare to find someone who never experiences a strange pain or pain here and there. For some people, these pains and pains are much more important than others. Bursitis is one of the common causes of pain and can be very upset.
What is bursitis and what signs can you experience? Let's see ...
1. What is bursitis? Bursas are small fluid-filled sacs that soften the bones, tendons, and muscles near the joints. When these bags filled with fluid become inflamed or irritated, pain occurs, and in many cases the range of motion may be limited.
This condition may occur due to blunt force trauma in some cases, but more often occurs slowly due to frequent and repetitive movements. For example, runners tend to suffer from bursitis, as well as those who conduct training sessions. You may start to suffer from bursitis if you do more squats than your body, or if you press your shoulder more than you need.
2. Symptoms of bursitis. The most common symptoms of bursitis are ...
- feeling of pain or joint in the joint,
- noticing that your bones and joints are more painful if you move or push them, and you can also see
- the area looks swollen and red.
Then ice will become your best friend, especially in the first week or two after the injury. Ice applied to the area for ten minutes at least twice a day will help reduce swelling and inflammation. Also consider taking medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen, as they may be helpful in reducing pain as well as inflammation.
Usually, taking these steps for two to three weeks, you will notice that he heals on his own. If not, consult your doctor as you may need to check again if there is another problem, such as an infection, which prevents recovery. Your doctor may suggest that he injects a bursa with a corticosteroid to help reduce inflammation.
4. Prevention. Remember that prevention is the best medicine. If you want to avoid bursitis in the first place, focus on doing repetitive exercises as often as possible. If you are going to perform a repetitive procedure often, take breaks as often as possible to reduce any inflammation.
Also, do not forget to change your exercises, as this may help to further reduce the problem first. Bursitis is a disappointing condition, but you can cope with it with the right approach.
