Pelvic Pain and Tightness Due to Trochanteric Bursitis

Trochanteric bursitis involves inflammation of the bursa near the greater trochanter of the hip. While it presents as lateral hip pain, the resulting muscular imbalances and changes in gait can contribute to lower back strain. Pain may worsen when lying on the affected side or walking.

Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation with rest, ice, NSAIDs, and targeted physical therapy. Correcting gait and strengthening the pelvic stabilizers can prevent further lumbar compensation. Left untreated, this condition may lead to persistent lower back and pelvic discomfort.
