Bursitis, also known as bursitis, is a disease that was recognized and documented as early as the 19th century. During this time, medical research began to understand the anatomy of the bursa and its role in the body in more detail. The inflammation of these small, fluid-filled sacs that serve as a buffer between bones and tendons has become better understood. Bursitis can occur in various joints, such as the shoulder, hip, and elbow. Modern diagnostic and treatment methods, including anti-inflammatory drugs and physical therapy, have been developed to relieve the symptoms.
