Ischial Bursitis Treatment
If you are seeking treatment for ischial bursitis, we can help. Ischial bursitis is a chronic condition that is characterized by pain and inflammation in the ischiogluteal bursa sac, located at the base of the pelvis. It is a common condition affecting athletes such as footballers, runners and soccer players and results in chronic or acute pain in the buttocks.
At Ortho Sport & Spine Physicians, we take a comprehensive approach to treating ischial bursitis that may involve a combination of treatment modalities. The goal of treatment is to reduce the inflammation in the ischial bursa sac to alleviate the pain. However, before recommending any type of treatment plan, we will first take the time to complete a thorough evaluation and accurately pinpoint the cause of the pain. Once this has been done, we can then recommend a customized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs and treatment goals. Using the most advanced and minimally invasive methods possible, our interventional sports physicians are able to help athletes who suffer from ischial bursitis find long-term pain relief so they can return to a healthy and active lifestyle.
Causes of Ischial Bursitis
Ischiogluteal bursitis is caused by performing prolonged, repetitive activities that place stress on the ischiogluteal bursa. This is a common injury for athletes that participate in sports that require repetitive jumping, running and kicking. If you have prolonged or persistent pain in the buttocks and think it may be due to ischial bursitis, please contact our Ischial Bursa Pain Relief Experts at Ortho Sport & Spine Physicians today to schedule a consultation.
