Common causes include repetitive movements, prolonged sitting or standing, and injuries. Common symptoms of trochanteric bursitis include pain on the outside of the trochanter, swelling and tenderness in the affected area, as well as stiffness and a reduced range of motion.

Trochanteric bursitis injections involve administering cortisone directly into the bursa to reduce inflammation and relieve pain associated with trochanteric bursitis.
If you’re experiencing chronic trochanteric pain, swelling, or difficulty moving due to inflammation, you may benefit from an injection. A consultation with Dr Ram will help determine if this treatment is suitable for you.
If you don’t have a prior diagnosis, Dr Ram will examine the joint to confirm suitability for an injection. The area is then cleaned, a local anaesthetic is applied, and the injection is administered quickly. Mild soreness may follow but usually fades within a few days.
Most patients experience pain relief within 48 hours of the injection, with the full effect usually felt within a week. The relief can last from months to years, depending on individual circumstances.
Dr Ram will send you some important information prior to the injection with details of the benefits and risks (mostly minimal).
The number of injections depends on your condition and its severity. Some people find relief with a single injection, while others may need additional treatments. Dr Ram will review your treatment plan with you during your consultation.

Yes, most patients can return to normal activities shortly after the injection. However, it’s best to avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activities for a short period to allow the joint to recover. You may continue to drive as usual.
