Bursae Excision
Surgical removal of an inflamed bursa causing pain and swelling.
A bursa is a small fluid-filled sac that cushions bones, tendons, and muscles near joints. When a bursa becomes inflamed (bursitis) and does not respond to conservative treatment, surgical excision provides a definitive solution.
All treatments begin with a medical assessment
Every patient is seen by our onsite doctor partner, Aega Health, before any procedure. This 15-minute assessment (£150) includes full clinical assessment, diagnosis, suitability review, and consent, ensuring your care is safe and tailored to you.
