Overview
Based on the nature of inflammation bursitis may classified into 2 subtypes: septic and aseptic. Common anatomic location include shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and ankle. Most common bursitis subtypes include subacromial, olecranon, trochanteric, prepatellar, and retrocalcaneal. Moreover, based on the location of the bursa from the skin, bursitis may be classified into 2 subtyopes: superficial and deep. Superficial bursa are more prone to get infected with bacteria and develop septic bursitis. common location of septic bursitis include knee (prepatellar bursitis), and elbow (olecranon bursitis).[1]

Based on the location of the bursa from the skin, bursitis may be classified into 2 subtyopes: superficial and deep
- Common superficial form of bursitis include:
- Olecranon bursitis
- Prepatellar bursitis
- Infrapatellar bursitis
- Retrocalcanea bursitis
- Common deep form of bursitis include:

- Anserine bursitis
- Subacromial bursitis
Additionally, based on duration of symptoms and presentation bursitis may classified into: acute, subacute and chronic
