Our joints are protected by small fluid-filled sacs called bursae that act as shock absorbers for our bones, muscles, and tendons. These sacs play a crucial role in our ability to comfortably and effectively perform many different types of tasks, including those that may be necessary for one’s occupation. Repeated motions and pressure applied to the bursae over a long period of time may lead to inflammation.

Inflamed bursa, or bursitis, is a painful medical condition that can have a negative impact on construction workers. In fact, this condition may limit your ability to work. If you have developed bursitis as a result of your job duties, please contact the Oklahoma City bursitis lawyers at the Abel Law Firm by calling (405) 239-7046 for a free legal consultation.

Bursitis in Joints

Bursitis can cause debilitating pain and restrict the ability of a person to perform specific tasks. Often, this condition develops when workers must perform repeated motions on a regular basis.

Bursitis can affect the following joints and body parts:

  • Elbow
  • Heel
  • Knee
  • Toes
  • Shoulder
  • Hip
  • Wrist

This serious medical condition can cause a great deal of pain, swelling, and discomfort that may prevent a person from being able to complete his or her work duties. Treatment for bursitis typically involves anti-inflammatory medication and a period of rest, which may require time away from the job.
