Anserine bursitis is an inflammation of the anserine bursa, a fluid-filled bursa located on the inside of the knee below the hamstring. The bursa acts as a cushion between the bones, muscles, and tendons found in the knee area. Anserine bursitis usually results from chronic irritation of the bursa, which may be due to repetitive overuse of the area, traumatic injury, infection, or chronic inflammatory disease such as arthritis.

Epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, is a common injury that occurs from overuse and overuse of the forearm muscles and tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle of the elbow. This overuse can cause small injuries and wear and tear on the tendons, resulting in pain, swelling and muscle weakness.

Plantar fasciitis is a common injury that affects the sole of the foot, specifically the plantar fascia, which is a tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes. Plantar fasciitis occurs when the plantar fascia becomes inflamed and irritated, which can cause pain and stiffness in the heel and arch of the foot.

Sarcopenia is the progressive loss of muscle mass and function, associated with age, which can lead to muscle weakness and decreased functional capacity. In rheumatology, sarcopenia is often addressed as part of aging and is also related to osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, as muscle mass, bone and cartilage density and quality are closely related.
