WHAT IS HIP BURSITIS?

Hip bursitis is a painful condition caused by inflammation of the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles near the hip joint. This inflammation can be due to repetitive stress, injury, or certain medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.

If you are experiencing symptoms of hip bursitis, it’s essential to know that there are effective treatment options available, including advanced injection therapies offered by specialised clinics like London Bridge Regen Clinic.

SYMPTOMS OF HIP BURSITIS

The most common symptoms of hip bursitis include:

  1. Pain: Pain is usually localised to the outer hip area and may worsen with physical activity or prolonged pressure on the hip.
  2. Stiffness: The hip may feel stiff or achy, especially after periods of inactivity or upon waking.
  3. Tenderness: The affected area may be tender to the touch.
  4. Swelling: In some cases, the area around the hip may appear swollen or feel warm to the touch.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

TREATMENTS FOR HIP BURSITIS

At London Bridge Regen Clinic, we offer three advanced injection therapies for hip bursitis:

  1. Cortisone injections: Cortisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication that can be injected directly into the affected bursa to provide fast-acting relief from pain and inflammation associated with hip bursitis.
  2. Prolotherapy injections: Prolotherapy involves injecting a solution of dextrose and local anaesthetic into the affected area around the hip to stimulate the body’s natural healing response, strengthening and repairing damaged tissues.
  3. Prolozone injections: Prolozone is a regenerative injection therapy that combines ozone gas with nutrients and vitamins to stimulate healing and reduce pain and inflammation in the affected area around the hip.

YOUR SIMPLE 4 STEP JOURNEY

Step 1. Free Intial consultation

London Bridge Regenerative clinic gives every patient a free consultation with one of our injecting practitioners.  This includes a free ultrasound scan if required.

There is no obligation to proceed to treatment. The consultation is an opportunity to discuss your issue in detail and the benefits and risks of the procedure.

STEP 2. PHYSICAL EXAM AND ULTRASOUND

We will perform palpation and orthopaedic tests to help confirm your diagnosis.  If required we may also perform a diagnostic ultrasound scan to assist in visualising the issue.  We may also refer you for an X-ray or MRI, depending on the examination findings.

We will allow time to explain the procedure and answer any questions you may have.  We make sure you understand the advantages and risks with the procedure before going ahead.

STEP 3. Injection procedure

You’ll be given individual pre-injection advice to reduce your chance of bleeding or infection and support your recovery and aid healing

It’s important to let your practitioner know if you’re on any prescription or over-the-counter medications. You may be asked to stop taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory tablets, which can increase the risk of bruising. It’s also important to stop smoking cigarettes and e-cigarettes before and after the procedure because they can disrupt the healing process.

A local anaesthetic is only needed for Cortisone, Prolotherapy, Prolozone, and Arthrosamid injections.

Arthrosamid also requires an antibiotic, which must be taken 2 hours before the procedure.

STEP 4: RECOVERY AND FOLLOW UP

Following the procedure, most individuals can return home and resume their normal activities. Our clinical team will be available to offer water and provide guidance on post-injection care.

For the next 48 hours, it’s advisable to refrain from strenuous activities and alcohol consumption. Don’t be alarmed if you don’t notice immediate effects; the duration until you experience a perceptible change depends on the specific injection administered.

A follow-up appointment or phone consultation will be scheduled after the course of treatment to review the progress.

INJECTION TREATMENT OVERVIEW

At London Bridge Regen Clinic, our experienced healthcare professionals use ultrasound guidance to ensure precise delivery of the medication to the affected area, maximising the treatment’s effectiveness.

We are happy to answer any questions you may have and help you take the first step towards finding relief from your hip pain.

Each of these injection therapies offers unique benefits for patients with hip bursitis:

Cortisone injections provide rapid relief from pain and inflammation, making them an excellent option for patients seeking quick symptom relief. The effects of cortisone can be felt within a few days of the injection but may be shorter-lived compared to other therapies.

Prolotherapy injections work by triggering the body’s own healing response, stimulating the growth of new, healthy tissue in the affected area. This can help to stabilize and strengthen the structures around the hip, reducing pain and improving function over time. Prolotherapy may be particularly useful for treating chronic pain and instability related to hip bursitis.

Prolozone injections harness the power of ozone to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and provide pain relief. Ozone has been shown to improve circulation, stimulate the production of growth factors, and modulate the immune system to support the body’s natural healing processes. Prolozone may be especially beneficial for treating acute pain and inflammation associated with hip bursitis.

While all three therapies aim to reduce pain and improve function, the choice between cortisone injections, Prolotherapy, and Prolozone depends on individual patient needs, preferences, and the severity and duration of the condition.
