Bursitis is the inflammation of one or more bursae (small sacs) of synovial fluid in the body.

Bursitis is inflammation of the fluid-filled sac (bursa) that lies between a tendon and skin, or between a tendon and bone. The condition may be acute or chronic.
get over it and vibes i guess.

Are you talking about Olicranon Bersistus? As in like a fluid pocket? I had it pretty bad about 6 months ago, I'm 18. It was on my elbow and it was almost an inch fat at times, the size would fluctuate. Its really not a big deal at all, just uncomfortable to rest my elbow on a table and stuff. It went away after about 4-5 months.

bursitis* and im pretty sure it has nothing to do with age, just overuse from alot of exercise or injuring the joint can cause it too

Caught my back tip under a rail last season, flipped over the rail and my back knee came down right on the edge of my front ski. It sliced clean through my snow pants, sweatpants, and skin to the bone. I thought this was the worst of it until 3 days later I had a fluid buildup the size of a softball on top of my knee cap. I finally regained movement in my knee a week and a half after this incident.
I was eventually diagnosed with bursitis and got my knee drained 4 times. It still bothers me sometimes when I sit with it bent for extended periods of time.
Not fun at all. I was 18 by the way.

This is an example of much more chronic bursistis. For my example, it was just the result of 8+ years of falling on my elbow. For me, I didn't need to get it drained and as I said, it went away. Maybe shed some light as to where your bursistis is, how big it is, and how much it hurts, and we can get you some more info.

smashed my knee on a rail last year, and had a load of fluid build just below my knee cap, it was like i had two knees! I called it my jelly knee, didn't hurt much, just felt weird. I had it for about 2 months or so. I was 19 btw.
