Prognosis | Pain in the greater trochanter

Prognosis

The duration of the healing process is highly dependent on the cause of the pain. Also in the case of bursitis, the duration varies greatly with the degree of inflammation. A slight inflammation can show improvement after a few days, a persistent inflammation can take weeks and return more frequently.

However, the prognosis is very good, rarely longer damages or pain remain. Patience in healing and adequate immobilization of the hip is beneficial and reduces the risk of recurrence.
