When I was showing the doctor where my knee hurt today I also showed him an area below the kneecap that was quite painful He said that spot was the bursa and that the pain was bursitis Great! Just add another item to my constantly growing list of ailments The shot was painless to get and I’m looking forward to relief in the next day or so

Hope it works! As you know, I'm no stranger to knee pain. Shots HAVE helped.

Mom had bursitis in a shoulder, I believe. She was never offered any shots but that was 50 years ago.

@looeyville It must be discouraging having so many bits going wrong, but look on the bright side - you’re not pregnant.

I had bursitis several years ago. After a visit to the Doc's office got some advice on how to deal with it. Not had it since, but I am not as young as I was, so fingers crossed
