Ischial Bursitis

Rest and Activity Modification: Initially, it is important to rest and avoid activities that aggravate the pain. Refraining from activities that put stress on the piriformis muscle, such as running or heavy lifting, can help reduce pain and promote healing. Physical therapy: A physical therapist can help you develop a personalized exercise program to relieve muscle pain and prevent future injuries. Harris I. Surgery: The ultimate placebo. NewSouth Publishing; 2016. “Total hip replacement surgery for arthritis is generally considered a very effective operation in achieving pain relief and restoring function, even though it has never been subjected to randomized trial” — literally unproven medicine, despite being one of the most popular surgeries in the history of surgery, with a scandalous recent history: the “metal-on-metal” disaster, starting in 2005. MoM “just sounded better” but proved to have serious unintended consequences caused by the release of metal ions. See “How safe are metal-on-metal hip implants?” Extremely unsafe!

Confusion with the sacroiliac joint pain

This analysis of thousands of patients confirmed a jarring disconnect between signs of arthritis on hip x-rays and hip pain: “Hip pain was not present in many hips with radiographic osteoarthritis, and many hips with pain did not show radiographic hip osteoarthritis.” What they mean by “many” is “practically all”: roughly 80% of patients with signs of arthritis had no pain, and at least 85% of patients with hip pain had no sign of arthritis! These numbers held up even at the extremes — most older patients with a high suspicion of hip arthritis did not in fact have arthritis that could be diagnosed with an x-ray.
