Your Trusted Provider of Treatment for Shoulder Bursitis in Louisville, KY

If you’re dealing with nagging shoulder pain that limits your mobility or disrupts daily activities, it may be more than just a temporary ache. At Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing and treating shoulder bursitis—a common yet painful condition that affects many active individuals and athletes in Louisville, Kentucky.

What Is Shoulder Bursitis?

Bursitis occurs when the small, fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion your joints become inflamed. In the shoulder, this often happens due to repetitive motion or injury. While it’s frequently seen as a sports injury, anyone can develop bursitis from overuse, poor posture, or trauma to the joint.

Symptoms and Causes of Bursitis

Understanding the symptoms of bursitis is key to early intervention. Common signs include:

  • Persistent or sharp pain around the shoulder joint
  • Swelling, tenderness, or redness
  • Pain that worsens with movement or pressure
  • Limited range of motion

The causes of bursitis vary but often include repetitive overhead activity, direct impact, arthritis, or infection. Without proper care, this condition can worsen and lead to chronic pain.

Personalized Shoulder Bursitis Treatment

At Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic, we take a personalized approach to shoulder bursitis treatment. Our experienced orthopedic specialists offer a range of conservative and advanced therapies to promote healing and restore shoulder function. These may include:

  • Rest and activity modification
  • Anti-inflammatory medications
  • Corticosteroid injections
  • Guided physical therapy
  • Regenerative medicine options
  • Minimally invasive surgical solutions (when necessary)

Our goal is to deliver long-lasting bursitis pain relief so you can get back to doing what you love—whether it’s sports, work, or everyday activities.

I was able to get a office visit on short notice. It seemed to be a very busy day. Rebecca took the time to listen to all of my issues and discuss a plan for additional treatment. I have always been impressed with her knowledge and bed side manner.

Dr. Richardson is the best! He did shoulder decompression surgery for me many moons ago and has continued to treat me for other shoulder, arm, and back issues since. I would recommend him to anyone!
