| bursitis, elbow | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. The bursa at the tip of the elbow is called the olecranon bursa. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
