Bursitis | What it is, and how you can get better

[@HugoStiglitz88]

I'm too young to have this shit

[@lchiAkuma]

Same I'm in my 20s and my hip just started this shit and it hurts to lay on my right side walk sit down when I push on it. I hope this is all it is tho I haven't seen a doctor yet bc no insurance.

[@DustyTail]

Has nothing to do with age.

[@Michael-fy4mh]

Is there Bursitis that affects my tailbone, the buttbone on my right side?

[@andrewdarby8827]

Pain relievers and anti inflammatory meds don't have any affect on the pain, I'm 59 muscular male almost in tears !

[@kipponi]

Yes cold is better. It even stings now when I use the cold pack. I can run pain free now but after only 7km run it hurts couple of days.

[@Thechristianremnantnomad]

This is true i am suffering with this pain also i am 47 year old female and the pain is horrific and i am in physical therapy and its not helping yet . prayers for you hope you do get better soon

[@jessicademaree2441]

Yep 33 years old and already have this pain since 2 months 😢 nothing helps will probably see if I can go for the shot. Horrible 😢

[@benchmarks1016]

I'm 22 suffering from 2 years.. I hv no comments

[@andrewdarby8827]

7 months on and I can walk and do most things but have to be very wary of sudden movements, my pain now is the outside of my calf but I'm coping, physio helped enormously and exercising before getting out of bed is a MUST. I do hope you all get some relief from the agonising pain.

[@keithsage1593]

It hurts real bad.

[@Nonsensically]

I’ve had bursitis for 3 years now. Was also diagnosed with arthritis and sciatica. Had 2 shots. 1 year of pt. The pt left me in worse pain. I retired early and sitting around definitely helps but I know it is so bad for me. I’ve actually just given up. Such is life.

[@basilcarroll9729]

Getting old sucks

[@donalddriver9641]

It could be worse. I am on a catether with a leg bag probably from now on at 74. While walking out of the grocery store I spotted a guy much younger with legs that were swollen to the size maybe 30 plus inches or more and the flesh looked putrid. He actually had large shields strapped to his legs I guess for support. I don't know how he even lifted and moved his legs but he did and kept going. Mine is minor compared to what he was facing!

[@graciousme2258]

I’m 35 I don’t want to be like this

[@Nonsensically]

@@graciousme2258 You hopefully will not have too many issues you are not expecting. I was told by a panel of orthopedists at age 11 that I would have very bad arthritis.

[@Naamanah127]

Oh my gosh this is my Dr.!! Hi Dr. Ellman😃.

[@zechgreer7738]

I was diagnosed with this at my hip and it was the reason why I got medically discharged from the military. It keeps coming back and it gets so bad I can’t even walk and hurts down my leg to where even hurts to bend my knee

[@wilsong4096]

I’m 41 and I’ve done heavy lifting all my life and usually feel great but every few years this pops up and it hurts really bad . I’ve torn muscles and broken a few bones and this is just as bad pain wise . Evertime the same thing happens it starts and it’s extremely painful for a few days then im able to get into some stretching and hv to start super light on the weights and work my way back up . I know everyone is different but for me as soon as the super painful stuff starts to ease up the faster I can get back to at least light lifting mobility the faster the recovery is .

[@sheryl318]

I went to see Physical Medicine at kaiser about my hip pain. I asked him about an injection. And he said he would not recommend it because it would affect the bones. But if I wanted it he would set it up for me. Are these injections safe?

[@BooksbyAFoster]

Thank you, doctor... God bless you for this video.

[@johnkelly9451]

Keep searching the videos. This video is a good informative but does not show you excercises to do. I found a chiropractic video that is very helpful to strengthen the gluts (butt muscles) and give hip bursitis a chance to heal. We can keep inflaming the sac by doing strenuous things and it reinjures or stays inflamed. Keep searching until you find something that works.

[@666kizzie]

I haven't been able to walk from april last year😊

[@betsyleifeste1602]

I’ve had two shots and they do help....not really painful either. My doctor sprays this cold stuff on the injection site first. Pain is sill there tho but not as bad. Wish he would say what kind of PT would be beneficial.

[@jessicaday6970]

I drank milk of magnesia for a week. Over the counter, recommended dosage. It's a laxative, but the pain was cut in half in the first 24 hours of consuming it. I'm so glad I did it.

[@ashrawichaman1221]

Have you completely healed

[@lindaterrell9366]

Thanks, definitely going to try.

[@tayyirawashahtrawasiay5837]

I recently had a physical therapist do shock wave treatments something everyone is raving about. The treatments didn't work with my problem which is hip bursitis. I have tried everything and nothing helps so I'm through!

[@rlove3478]

Pain pills help

[@DanesinTexas]

I’ve tried PRP and shock therapy…nothing works…can only walk slowly…have three small kids and I used to run around and play and do sports with them…no more 😔😔

[@OujiDarkmatter]

At last I got a diagnosis last week.I've been dragging myself around on a walking stick since Christmas,on opiates it became so painful.The 1st GP had me convinced I needed a hip replacement after seeing my xrays,now I think he's an idiot I wont see again.Just waiting for the covid backlog to clear fior the shots,God help me,,the drugs don't work anymore.

[@Palmtreepeace]

I had the injection and was pain free for 5 months. Now I’m back to awful pain again

[@susievidal4134]

I've had this pain on my left hip for over a year I thought it was my hip but my doctor said that my xray was ok and then I thought it was sciatica but switched to laying at night on my right side now that hip hurts and I can't lay face up I'm just not used to laying that way I need relieve soon and I've had cortisona shots before on my feet and knee and shoulder and they didn't help much

[@donalddriver9641]

I am taking a Zpack for a sinus infection (Prednisone) and it has reduced the infection quite a bit on day 3 but when I went walking for 2.5 miles today I noticed that my hip pain on my right side has also gone away!

What's the cause of bursitis

[@kipponi]

I had 11 week running program. So too much is too much for 56 year old man. I have run regularly 12years no problem 4 times a week. Runnig programs sometimes are too hard.

[@tomcat6933]

@@lyndadale6255 i don't know what do about it or go to for help. Most of these doctor's out here just want your money and only spend 5 minutes with you. Should i go to a chiropractor for adjustments until something goes back in place or just wait for it to go away? Lol

[@lyndadale6255]

Tom Cat If you are in America I've no idea. I've just seen an NHS physiotherapist had manipulation but it didn't work. Lots of good exercise videos for backs, bursitis etc on KZbin. Plus I've now got a new anti inflammatory drug from my GP so here's hoping. Found using a stick or Nordic pole relieves the impact on joints on stairs and walking. Good luck just keep away from opioids they don't help , just kid you they do.

[@kamranhamidfar1725]

Can my hip bursitis be cured by injection? Thank you doctor

Yes. But it will come back down the road.

[@ufosrus]

No cortisone for me. All the shots do is flare up my face and neck but no pain relief.

They make my face red for a few days

[@AsifAAli]

I fell on my hip a few days ago... my back is fine, the pain went away within 2 days... but when I move, I feel like there's some tearing going on inside my skin---and it hurts like hell. 😢

[@greycoke5207]

I’m 15, and I have had this pain for 3 years. I’m scared to tell my parents. Does anyone know how to cure it on their own

[@panoramaorthopedics]

Hi Grey, we're sorry to hear you've been in pain for so long. In order to diagnose the cause of your pain and have it treated, we would recommend telling your parents and scheduling an appointment with a physician near you.

[@sp-sp18]

You should tell your parents. No need to be hiding from them kid. They take you to doc right away.

[@lindaterrell9366]

Please share this with your parents. For multiple reasons. 1. It might be something that runs in the family. They may already have a cure for you. 2. In case something happens to you, you can't talk (God forbid), they will be able to let the Dr know if necessary.

[@nigelmorgan3449]

Grey go tell you mum and dad matey they’ll get you into to see a doctor your to young to have this pain mate I’m 70 and it gives me jip 😮😢

[@terrimobley6067]

As a parent of 8 grown children the hardest thing for my kids to say is such and such scared me or I really got hurt ... And I would ask why of why didn't you tell me?!? Parents aren't psychic but they want to protect their kids If your parents don't want to help you over something like bursitis, time to talk to a counselor about the bigger problem of parents with issues. ❤️❤️❤️

[@charlenegarcia5144]

Thank You Doc! My hips are KILLING ME! 😢 I went to an Ortho Doc a couple of years ago and she recommended P.T. But with my insurance, I have to meet my deductible before anything is covered. At 105.00 a visit, I cannot afford that. What gets me is, my 38 year old alcoholic (oh wait, he says he's not an alcoholic he's a "Binge" drinker 🙄 - whatever.. A drunks a drunk in MY Opinion) Step son who is TOTALLY CAPABLE of working, is on state medicaid, gets rides to the doctor, delivers his prescriptions to our door, everything is totally covered 100%. I have been working since I was 16, I'm 62 now and can't afford to go to P.T. GUYS, What is wrong with this picture? & Don't blame Biden, because this has been going on since my step son was in his early 20's....im not against State Medicaid for the elderly and those who really need it, but there is NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS 38 year old, other than his hand to mouth habit 😡

This is the most debilitating injury of my life. I have my first Ironman on Sep 17th & I currently can no longer run. I already ruptured the distal head off my left bicep in March so the swimming is it going to be extremely painful - but doable. I’m willing to try anything to fix my hip so I can fulfill this lifelong dream of mine that I’ve been working on for 5 years. I’m turning, my body isn’t getting any stronger, my kids are gettin older, & life is getting more busy - this is probably my last chance to try to achieve this. I’ve lost the weight, built up the endurance, sacrificed all the long hours of painful training. I’m in shape, but currently broken. I’m just an average Joe with a dream. All I want is the chance to suffer for 15 hours and earn my IRONMAN status. I would give anything to be healed. I will pray to Jesus Christ.
