Prescriptions For Bursitis Bursitis Vs. Cellulitis Vs. Infection In The Knee?

Bursitis Vs. Cellulitis Vs. Infection in the knee? - prescriptions for bursitis

I am 33 years old in good general condition. On 14 July, I woke up with a little pain in his right knee. I was not injured, but it was a slightly red spot the size of a penny. By early afternoon, my knee was swollen, warm to the touch, red and very painful. I went to my doctor (who would) go home after the pain. He thought I had broken a bag on my lap, so he sent me to an orthopedic specialist the next morning.

The orthopedic specialist ordered X-rays, but when I saw all of 10 seconds spent in the room with me before he said: "Oh, it's just an infection. Over the next 3 minutes (all the time he spent with me ), as an infection, bursitis, and cellulitis. He wrote me a prescription for antibiotics and sent me on my way.

When I got home, I saw bursitis, and cellulitis, but found none of them is the same or different conditions. After 2 or 3 days, felt like my knee was much better, but it took a week for the pain disappear.

I woke up this morning at 3 on the same subject with the same knee. Can someone please clarify this for? What I have observed? Three conditions are the same? Should I wait for recurrences?
