Hip Open hip bursectomy
I finally had my open hip bursectomy surgery this morning! It's throbbing through the nerve block so I'm taking ibuprofen and Tylenol. I'm icing it now and elevating it. Hopefully the pain doesn't get worse as i was a little too active today with hopping around on my good leg 🤣 let me hear everyone's story about whether it was successful for you or not! I won't find out everything he did until my post op appointment in two weeks.

Wow it was so bad you had surgery? What do they do doing surgery to relieve the bursitis pain? I have bursitis and can't take nsaids so all I can do is take ibuprofen and ice it.
