Shoulder Bursitis
Symptoms
Shoulder Bursitis occurs when the Bursa
in the shoulder becomes inflamed and swells. Bursa are small,
fluid-filled sacs lubricate and cushion pressure points
between your bones and the tendons and muscles near your
joints. The over 150 bursae in your body help your joints move
with ease. Bursitis occurs when a bursa becomes inflamed. The inflammation
makes
movement or pressure on the bursa painful.
Bursitis of the shoulder often results
from injury to the rotator cuff, the muscles and tendons that
connect your upper arm bone to your shoulder blade. Causes of
the injury may include poor posture, falling, lifting and
repetitive overhead arm activities. Sometimes it's hard to
distinguish between the pain caused by bursitis and that
caused by a rotator cuff injury. Recurrent flare-ups of
bursitis are common.
Shoulder Bursitis Symptoms May Include:
- A dull ache or stiffness in the area of
your shoulder
- More pain with movement or pressure
- An area that feels swollen or warm to
the touch
- Occasional skin redness in the area of
the inflamed bursa
