Knee bursa. Fluid-filled, saclike cavities are known as bursae. These are located where muscles and tendons move over bony joint areas. Their function is to reduce friction caused by muscles and tendons moving against skin and bones, as well as to facilitate movement. A knee bursa, also known as a subcutaneous prepatellar bursa, aids with movement when we walk, run, stretch, or even cross our legs.
A bursa is a small, fluid-filled sac that acts as a cushion between a bone and other moving parts: muscles, tendons, or skin. Bursae are found throughout the body. Bursitis occurs when a bursa becomes inflamed (redness and increased fluid in the bursa).A tendon is a flexible band of fibrous tissue that connects muscles to bones. Tendinitis is inflammation of a tendon. Tendons transmit the pull of the muscle to the bone to cause movement.They are found throughout the body, including the hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles, and feet.ursae are found throughout the body.
