What is a bursa sac?

A bursa sac is an extremely important compartment found through our body. It can be regarded like a flat balloon with a small portion of oil in the middle. Imagine now that these balloons lay between regions within the body which move against one another, (like inside joints) and you can see how this would permit minimum friction and wear on the bones and cartilage by permitting a smooth gliding effect to take place.

Of c0use the bursa isn’t really a balloon, actually the bursa sac is essentially made from a special kind of tissue called synovial tissue which is highly vascularised and permits the controlled movement of water and tiny molecules to and from the inside space of the bursa. The oily substance in the middle of the bursa sac which supplies the gliding effect is named Synovial fluid. A major element of healthy and normal synovial fluid is Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a very long chain molecule that gives synovial fluid its viscosity and gliding effect, but which isn’t readily capable of being transported or lost via movement across the synovial tissue.

Heel bursitis

Hi Toky, the patches are starting to offer relief for my son’s heel. He is finally looking on the bright side.

Over the past month, he has had 2 drainages, 2 cortisone shots, and referred to 2 different specialists. The end result was either an operation to shave the bone, reattach the tendon and be off his game for a season…..not his option.

So I started the patches on him that night. The next day relief was evident. We have used 6 so far and he can now feel the bone in his heel. It is still red, but nowhere as bad. Still tender, but not as painful.

Thank you so much.

Baker's cyst

Thank you for responding. I think I will save my last two patches in case I need them. Right now, I have such great improvement, I am no longer wearing the knee brace and I can walk up and down stairs with alternating feet. Have not done that for a while! Thanks again,

Baker's cyst

Hello Danniel,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I started using the patches about 10 days ago, and the amount of improvement is unbelievable. The lump was rock hard, and I could not bend the knee, nor straighten the leg. Even though there is still some swelling, the knee feels almost normal. I have run out of the patches, so will restart as soon as I receive the new batch…hopefully it will all go away.

Thank you for your help, and good luck..

Baker's cyst

Hello! I am writing to sing your praises! I am not kidding. I was first diagnosed with a Baker’s cyst approximately three months ago. The pain became increasingly intense, so I finally made an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon. He explained that the cyst was most likely the result from a torn meniscus and that […]

Thank you for the bursitis patches. My husband has used them every night for 7 days and it is almost completely gone. He feels really good about it. Best regards,

Baker's cyst.

Back in July I hurt my knee, and later formed a baker’s cyst…it got so bad that I could not bend my knee without a lot of pain. I had to walk with my leg stiff at all times.

I found your website and ordered a ten pack…used them, and in no time the swelling was down, but not gone. I could bend my knee and walk normal…something I have not done since July. I ordered your patches again…Because from the time I used my last patch, til I got my order, some of the swelling and stiffness came back…started using them again…and just like before the cyst is going down…without needles! Love that.

I just want to say thank you!, my knee is almost back to normal… the best thing I have ever used.

General Bursitis

Toky, I am writing to you again because my husband wants to order additional patches. He says that they are amazing for his severe leg cramps. He sleeps through the night whereas before using the patches he would get up 3 or 4 times a night with cramping in his legs.

Baker's cyst

Hi Toky, how are you? I ordered the patch because I have a meniscus tear on my knees which allows fluid to build into a baker’s cyst. The cyst I have on my right knee is larger than the left. So bending my knees is very uncomfortable because of the pressure and can be very […]
