Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bursa injection in the knee?

A bursa injection in the knee is a medical procedure where medication is injected into a bursa sac near the knee joint. The injection helps reduce inflammation in and around the swollen bursa, which cushions between bones, tendons, muscles, and skin. By reducing inflammation, the injection can relieve pain and improve knee joint mobility. The procedure is quick, straightforward, and can be done by a qualified healthcare professional in an outpatient setting.

How many major joint/bursa injections will I need?

The number of injections needed depends on the severity of the condition and patient response. Usually, up to four injections per year are given if therapeutic benefit is achieved.
