Trochanteric Bursitis and Gluteus Medius Tears Call 858-657-8200. At the side of the hip in the upper thigh, there is a bony prominence called the greater trochanter. Three important structures come together at this point: the trochanteric bursa, the gluteus medius muscle and the iliotibial band.The trochanteric bursa is a small, fluid-filled sac that pads the prominent bone over the greater trochanter.his is unlike pain from the hip joint, which generally occurs in the groin area or front of the hip. Most people with pain on the side of the hip simply have irritation of the trochanteric bursa and iliotibial band, but in severe cases, tendonitis or a tear of the gluteus medius may also be present.

The function of the gluteus medius is to assist with pelvis stability, hip abduction, along with internal and external rotation of the hip. Tears of the gluteus medius usually occur where the tendon inserts at the greater trochanter, causing lateral hip pain.Tears of the gluteus medius can occur due to traumatic injury or degenerative conditions such as tendinopathy (chronic inflammation of the gluteus medius tendon).ears of the gluteus medius usually occur where the tendon inserts at the greater trochanter, causing lateral hip pain.

Trochanteric Bursitis: Bursitis of the Hip When treating gluteus medius tendonitis (hip tendonitis) or any soft tissue injury, an effective therapy will increase blood flow to the injury while the joint is immobile. This increase in blood flow will accelerate the body's own ability to heal itself.

Gluteus Medius Minimus Tendinosis and Tears Recently, it has been recognized that many cases of hip bursitis is actually from wear and tear (called tendinosis), or even complete tears, of the gluteus medius and minimus tendons, that attach just deep to the greater trochanteric bursa. The bursa becomes irritated secondarily to the partial or complete tears.

Pelvic Pain and Overactive Pelvic Floor Muscle Dysfunction Spasm of the pelvic floor muscles, also known as Levator Ani Syndrome, can cause increased tension of the pelvic floor and contribute to pain in the low back, pelvis, and hip area. Patients with Levator Ani Syndrome often have the sensation of a mass in the rectum or pressure in the anal canal.ightness of the pelvic floor muscles can also contribute to constipation, as the person may not relax the area enough to have a productive bowel movement and will strain to pass stool as a result. Chronic straining can lead to other dysfunctions. 1  Mathias SD, Kupperman M, Liberman RF, et al.
