Used in combination with therapy, this is likely to have the best results for persistent bursitis. It will typically not be used as a first line approach, and is rarely performed by a general practitioner due to the position of the bursitis. The donut cushion proved to be quite comfortable. I didn’t feel any pain in my bottom when using it. Also, it helped me in nipping my bad posture habits in the bud. The longer you put pressure or additional stress on an injured bursa, the longer it’ll take to recover. It also increases your risk of chronic bursitis (bursitis that comes and goes in the same area). Chronic bursitis A bursa usually sits between a tendon/muscle and the bone. It helps to protect the tendon from rubbing against the bone. The bursa is a sac of fluid so it acts similar to a small cushion, proving protection and dampening from surrounding friction and pressure. The ischium is a bony protuberance at the bottom of the pelvis (lower part of the bottom) and the bursa that cushions the area is known as the ischial bursa. Inflammation of this bursa is known, as you can imagine, as ischial bursitis.Tendinitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon. Tendons are pieces of connective tissue between muscles and bones.

Most patients with this condition heal well with appropriate physiotherapy and return to normal function in a number of weeks. Occasionally, rehabilitation can take significantly longer and may take many months in those who have had their condition for a long period of time. Early physiotherapy treatment is vital to hasten recovery in all patients with ischiogluteal bursitis. Doing a repetitive activity can cause both bursitis and tendinitis — like doing the same motion for a sport, or using the same part of your body for physical work frequently.
