Symptoms include pain, swelling, redness, and limited movement. Early diagnosis through physical exam and imaging is crucial. If untreated, it can lead to complications such as septic bursitis, characterised by fever and intense pain. Treatment involves rest, ice, anti-inflammatory medications, and possibly fluid aspiration. Physiotherapy aids recovery, and preventive measures, like avoiding repetitive strain, are essential. Seek immediate medical advice for severe symptoms.

Advancements in Arthroscopic Techniques for Joint PreservationArthroscopy has revolutionised joint preservation techniques, allowing surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and less trauma to surrounding tissues. This article explores the advancements in arthroscopic surgery, such as rotator cuff repair, meniscal repair and transplantation, cartilage restoration, ligament reconstruction, and joint preservation in early arthritis. These…Arthroscopy has revolutionised joint preservation techniques, allowing surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and less trauma to surrounding tissues. This article explores the advancements in arthroscopic surgery, such as rotator cuff repair, meniscal repair and transplantation, cartilage restoration, ligament reconstruction, and joint preservation in early arthritis. These advanced techniques result in reduced surgical trauma, increased precision and safety, faster rehabilitation, and improved long-term outcomes. As arthroscopic techniques continue to evolve, they offer hope for improved quality of life and extended joint health for patients with joint injuries and early arthritis.
