Olecranon Bursitis

Olecranon Bursitis can occur with trauma to the tip of the elbow. Usually some overpressure on the elbow or can even be caused by repetitive use. Some people with Olecranon Bursitis can develop an infection. If this happens, you should seek medical attention to help mitigate the infection. Most importantly, you should try to protect the tip of the elbow from too much pressure. The olecranon bursa is very easy to flare up and can take a long time to get better.

I used a Ginger Poultice on mine it reduced pain and swelling within a couple of days, but some swelling still with very mild pain.

I got it in month of November last year it is healed but when i move elbow while putting on the table, it still feels little hard or little pain, so i need to worry about that.

Hi Paul, I got an elbow similar to this but less swollen. It doesn’t hurt and I do not have any injury or operation done. What do you think that might be? Can bursitis be painless?

Well, I got it, secondary to hitting something....I quickly ended up with a ping pong ball on my elbow. I cut up a pressure sock I had I was not using and voila, I had the perfect pressure bandage for my little ball. After a week, it was gone. I have a little soreness but nothing to be concerned about . Pressure was the key and the ball went away. I feel sorry for the people who get it ? an opening to infection and money for the Ortho guy who does it. Oops...sorry....Home sweet a trip to a Dr's

After the sac bursts, can it regrow or rejuvenate on its own?

Hi, thank u for the video. I have cubital tunnel syndrome at my elbow and I was about to go for cortisone injection but beofre that olecranon bursitis occur. I used to wear elbow-splint at night and i feel like may be it caused that. I did ultrasound and it showed less than 1 cc bursitis. It hurts on touch and swellon a bit compared to my other elbow. I have been treating it with hot-salt pack for 10 mins a day. And apllying voltaran. But its not helping. Should I wrap it with band-aid? Apply compression? I am really worried. I am on physiotherapy for by cubital tunnel but now I stopped it becuz of bursitis cuz i am too scared to move my arm. Is it ok to continue with physiotherapy? Also do i need to wait for contisone injection until bursitis heal? Sorry for too many questions. Im bit stressed

About 3 months ago after a burn on my elbow my arm started hurting bad it goes and comes if I do activity with it man it feels so ugly on my forearm like my muscle hurts bad I even wake up with it hurting I just don’t know what it can be

[bburd-jtos]

I just got this and after about 5 weeks the swelling is going down. I practice martial arts. Once it goes away, how long will I have to wait to train again and how likely is it to return?

[danielnada]
