Intra-articular and peri-articular pain can be caused by myriad of conditions. Some are generic and can affect any joint, such as inflammatory arthritis. Some are specific to the processes within a particular joint or region, for example: Shoulder; pain commonly caused by the process of impingement – injection to the subacromial bursa.Elbow; pain commonly caused by ‘tennis’ or ‘golfer’s’ elbow – injection into the common extensor or flexor origins respectively.Wrist; pain commonly caused by de Quervain’s tenosynovitis – injection into the tendon sheath of the first extensor tendon.Hip; pain commonly caused by trochanteric bursitis – injection into the region of the trochanteric bursa.

As the aetiology is varied, there are many therapeutic options for trochanteric bursitis. The management relies principally on physiotherapy and stretching. In cases that are refractory to conservative treatment, surgical interventions by means of arthroscopic debridement and release of the tight ITB have shown to be safe and efficient.

Trochanteric Bursitis is an extremely common disorder caused due to trauma or excess physical activity viz running or jumping due to which the greater trochanteric bursa gets inflamed. The inflamed bursa gets sore due to the movements between the wider trochanter and the overlying iliotibial band. The patient experiences weight-bearing discomfort on one leg due to the tightening of the iliotibial band in an attempt to preserve the upright posture. The patient may also express an inability to lie on the affected side. Tenderness with over palpation on the wider trochanter and discomfort with avoided hip invasion is observed during physical examination. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroid injections are used to reduce the pain caused by trochanteric bursitis. Assistive devices like cane or crutches can also be used to avoid applying complete load on the hip during its healing.
