TITLE: Olecranon Bursitis
No idea what bit of damage pushed it over the edge but it
was tennis ball sized by Saturday AM having been flat as a board the
night before...
Now, what confuses me is that the web references to it seem
completely even on whether heat, or cold, or strapping, or physio,
make it better faster!
Also: does anyone have a favourite means of deciding whether it's
infected? It seems to me to be hot as hell. I suspect there's no
Psoriatic Arthritis involvement, since it's the bursa not the elbow
joint itself which has the problem...
-----
Has anyone seen one recently and how WAS it treated and how did it
progress?
