Understanding Knee Bursitis
Knee Bursitis involves inflammation of the bursae–fluid-filled sacs that cushion and lubricate the knee joint. Common causes include repetitive motion, direct trauma, prolonged kneeling, or underlying arthritis. Bursitis pain is often felt in the front, inner, or outer side of the knee and may worsen with movement or pressure.
Dr. Nourparvar sees many patients from Mid-Wilshire, Culver City, and Los Feliz who are active professionals, parents, or athletes seeking relief from this condition without invasive surgery.

Dr. Nourparvar regularly integrates scientific literature and clinical research into his practice protocols. His work and techniques are guided by the latest findings in regenerative medicine, musculoskeletal imaging, and patient-centered care.

Non-Surgical Options that Work
PRP Therapy for Knee Bursitis
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections involve using a concentrated sample of your own blood platelets to reduce inflammation and encourage healing in the affected bursa. The procedure is safe, effective, and performed under ultrasound guidance for precision.
- Natural and minimally invasive
- Performed in-office in less than 45 minutes
- Low risk of side effects or complications
Stem Cell Therapy
Autologous stem cells–derived from your own bone marrow or fat tissue–can repair tissue damage and provide long-term relief. This is ideal for patients with recurring or chronic bursitis who wish to avoid steroid injections or surgery.
Our clinic is proud to serve Greater Los Angeles, including patients from Downtown LA, Marina del Rey, Century City, and beyond.
