nope...i got brucitus in my left elbow...fukin KILLED me for a YR!!! i went to a doc and got some bullshyt drug perscribed and an antiinflamatory...the pains gone, but i havnt workout in about 5 weeks either...i dont know bro, but i swear to god, if you find something PLEASE let me know....once i get back to the gym regular, i know its gonna kill me!!!
I take celebrex and celebrex is a medicine that needs to be used long term for 3-6 months at a time before it will work.You usualy take celebrex 2x a day it does work but you need a month in you before you se results sometimes but it works. If you have it take it like it says to. And if someone has bursitis that bad it needs to be surgicly removed by taking out all of the inflammed tissue in your elbow. You need to get cortizone shots by a orthopedic or a trigger point therapist. Dave they probably gave you a medrol dose pak you use for 6 days. There also is relafin on the market
it was called something pak, lol...it counted down for 7 days...8pills day 1, then 7, then 6, and so on....whatever...i just know from what the doc said that when i get back to hitting it hard, its gonna fukin kill me!! and he's all.."you gotta work around it" and i told him...its to the point it hurts on all pushing movments. "then dont do those movements"...i just looked at him like a dog looks at a sound it dont understand...i couldnt believe my ears...
i dont know if it worked or my not lifting worked, lol.....but he did say to ice it after every workout...i'm bad wiht that!! i dont ice anything, lol. i really dont think it worked though....the pain was about all gone before i even did the dosepak, but i wanted to know what the prob is. its still swollen and hasnt gone down...but the xray showed no bone problem
Did an ortho view the x-ray or did your regular doc? Also, the xray only shows tha bones and not any soft tissue. I remeber when I had my hip xrayed and the radiologist read the films as "normal" and as soon as the orthopedic doc looked at it, he saw the impingement.
nope...an ortho didnt...but he said that it didnt show soft tissue and he was already of the idea that it was brutitus (sp?)...he just wanted the xray to confirm...
You need a MRI and injections of cortizone to see if the pain goes away or not.Bursitus is painful but to the degree your saying it has to be more like,bone spurs or somekind of tear some where in that area. You need a ortho to read them not a regular doc. If your in that much pain then it cant be just bursitus or tendinitus
