Suggest Treatment For Bursitis In Lower Back And Right Hip
Hi i have been dealing with what my doctor calls Bursitis in my lower back and right hip. he has given me a shot in the hip once and it worked for a couple months but now it is right back if not worse then it was before the shot. Is there any kind of exercises / stretches I can do to relieve this. I work 12 hour days and am standing most of the time so when i leave work i can hardly put weight on that leg. i stretch my lower back out and it seems to help there it eases it for a lil bit. but there isn t anything I have found the help with my hip.

Hello. Bursitis is an inflammation of fluid pockets due to overuse or abnormal use of muscles and joints.
Physiotherapy can be useful in limiting the bursitis coupled with anti-inflammatory medication.
All the best.
