Source text - English Bursitis
Bursae are small fluid-filled sacs that act as cushions between tendons and bones at a joint to aid smooth movement. Overuse and repetitive friction can cause a bursa to become inflamed and movement of the associated joint will be painful – a condition known as bursitis. The bursae most susceptible to inflammation in runners are the trochanteric bursa at the hip, the patellar bursae in the knee and the retrocalcanear bursa at the ankle. Poor running technique, biomechanical abnormalities and unsuitable footwear can all cause bursitis. Bursae can also become infected, which can lead to chronic, or long-term, bursitis.
Translation - Italian Borsite
Le borse sierose sono piccole sacche piene di liquido che fanno da cuscinetto fra i tendini e le ossa di un’articolazione, contribuendo rendere più fluido il movimento. L’uso eccessivo e l’attrito ripetuto possono far infiammare una borsa e provocare dolore durante il movimento dell’articolazione interessata. Questa patologia è chiamata borsite. Le borse sierose più soggette a infiammazione in chi corre sono quella trocanterica dell’anca, quelle rotulee del ginocchio e quella retrocalcaneale della caviglia. Le cause della borsite possono essere una cattiva tecnica di corsa, anomalie biomeccaniche e scarpe inadatte. Le borse si possono anche infettare provocando una borsite cronica, di lunga durata.
