Search September 8, 2005 Registration Healthcare Professionals You are in: Sports Injury Bursitis Bursitis Overview Bursae (one is a bursa) are fluid-filled sacs that cushion areas of friction between tendon and bone or skin. Like air-filled bubble wrap, these sacs reduce friction between moving parts of the body, such as in the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and heel. The number varies, but most people have about 160 bursae throughout the body. Bursae are lined with special cells called synovial cells, which secrete a fluid rich in collagen and proteins. This synovial fluid acts as a lubricant when parts of the body move. When this fluid becomes infected by bacteria or irritated because of too much movement, the painful condition known as bursitis results.

6. The Physician And Sportsmedicine: Olecranon And Prepatellar Bursitis Article from the Physician and Sports Medicine on knee and elbow bursitis. http://www.physsportsmed.com/issues/2000/03_00/mcfarland.htm

Olecranon and Prepatellar Bursitis Treating Acute, Chronic, and Inflamed Edward G. McFarland, MD; Pomthep Mamanee, MD; William S. Queale, MD; Andrew J. Cosgarea, MD THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE - VOL 28 - NO. 3 - MARCH 2000 In Brief: Elbow and knee bursitis is common in both athletes and nonathletes and has three basic presentations: acute, chronic nonseptic, and chronic infected. Most acute swellings occur after trauma and can be treated with early aspiration, compression, and padding. Chronic, nonseptic bursitis can usually be treated with conservative therapy and, occasionally, aspiration or corticosteroid injection. Inflamed bursae should be aggressively evaluated and treated. Some may require aspiration and decompression, and oral or intravenous antibiotics should be started to prevent septicemia. Incision and drainage is rarely needed but may be indicated for injuries that do not respond. Surgical excision of the bursa is recommended only for recalcitrant cases. I nflammation and swelling of the bursae at the tip of the olecranon and over the patella are very common in athletes and nonathletes. The cause is typically trauma, either due to repetitive extremity movement or to acute trauma to the olecranon or patella. In active persons, bursitis can be induced by work activity, as seen in coal miners, carpet layers, gardeners, and roofers (1-4). In athletes, olecranon and patellar bursitis have been reported in football players, wrestlers, basketball players, and dart throwers (5-7). Direct injury to the bursa comes from repetitive contact with the artificial turf, wrestling mat, hardwood floor, or exercise mat.
