Overview
Medical therapy for non-septic bursitis depends on the involved bursa and includes the RICE regimen (rest, ice, compression, elevation), NSAIDs, and/or corticosteroid injections. Restriction of activity is encouraged to prevent further injury and promote healing. Antimicrobials are the mainstay of therapy for septic bursitis. Surgical management is often reserved for non-responders.
Medical Therapy
| Septic | Aseptic |
|---|---|
|
|
Subacromial Bursitis
- Conservative measures which are recommended among all patients who developed subacromial bursitis include:
- Physical therapy (PT)
- Scapular strengthening and postural reeducation
- Shoulder exercise
- Corticosteroid injection
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs)
- Physical therapy (PT)
- Physical therapy and NSAIDs are the most effective therapies for trochanteric bursitis
Prepatellar Bursitis
- Conservative measures which are recommended among all patients who developed prepatellar bursitis include:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) is often use as a first chose
- Decrease physical activities
- RICE regimen in the first 72 hours after the injury (rest, ice, compression, elevation)
- Physical therapy (PT)
- Local corticosteroid injections may be used in some patients who do not respond to initial therapy. [1]
Olecranon Bursitis
- The mainstay of therapy for acute traumatic or idiopathic olecranon bursitis is nonsurgical measures including ice, compressive dressings, and avoidance of aggravating activity.
- Most patients improve significantly with these measures.
- Aspiration should be performed among patients who do not respond to rule out possible infection.
- Early aspiration (with or without corticosteroid injection) may be helpful among patients with bothersome fluid collections.
- The mainstay of therapy for septic olecranon bursitis is fluid drainage, rest, and intravenous antibiotics.[1]
Trochanteric Bursitis
- Conservative measures which are recommended among all patients who developed trochanteric bursitis include:
- Activity modification
- Physical therapy (PT)
- Weight loss
- Corticosteroid injection
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs)
- Physical therapy and NSAIDs are the most effective therapies for trochanteric bursitis
- Local glucocorticoid injections are reserved for patients with refractory symptoms
- Most patients do not require any surgical intervention.[1]
Retrocalcaneal Bursitis
- Management of retrocalcaneal bursitis involves supportive measures such as ice, limitation of activity, NSAIDs, and orthoses.
- Modification of footwear to avoid posterior heel irritation and use of maneuvers that stretch the Achilles tendon may be helpful.
- Corticosteroid injections are not recommended as they may have adverse effects on the Achilles tendon.[1]
Antimicrobial Regimens
- Septic bursitis [2]
- 1. Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-susceptible (MSSA)
- Preferred regimen (1): Nafcillin 2 g IV q4h
- Preferred regimen (2): Oxacillin 2 g IV q4h
- Preferred regimen (3): Dicloxacillin 500 mg PO qid
- 2. Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant (MRSA)
- Preferred regimen (1): Vancomycin 1 g IV q12h
- Preferred regimen (2): Linezolid 600 mg PO qd
