Bursitis is painful inflammation of a bursa (a fluid-filled sac that cushions a body site that is subject to pressure and friction). It is most often seen in the shoulder, but is also common in elbows, knees, hips, heels, and other areas. Consult with your physician to rule out serious injury or infection. Homoeopathic remedies often help to ease discomfort.
