Subject: RE: chronic bursitis. I played a lot of volleyball in my teens and early 20's (when I could still jump ), and developed bad bursitis in my shoulder. I went and saw an orthopedic surgeon who gave me a cortisone shot into the shoulder. It helped a lot. I continued to play and did not have any major pain after that.
Recently, I have been dealing with trochanter bursitis and I took a series of cortisone pills before a half-marathon. That also seemed to help and I did not have much pain in my hip during the run.
Good luck1 |
