Perhaps&#8230;anyway, the shoulder is much better today than a week ago.\n<\/p><p>\nI looked into bursitis this evening for what to expect. A few details seem important:\n<ol><li>Typically, rest really helps bursitis. Such has been my case.<\/li>\n<li>Bursitis can result from a traumatic injury, but is often connected with long-term stress on the joint, possibly from sports, for example.<\/li>\n<li>The pain may be worse at night. Definitely, such was my case. It doesn&#8217;t hurt anymore, but for a few days it hurt intensely, and worst at night.<\/li>\n<li>If bursitis is not associated with an infection, with proper care it may heal in a few weeks. Once again, my shoulder has much improved in the two weeks since symptoms appeared.\n<\/li>\n<li>BTW: In my case, during the first few days after the injury, neither ibuprofen nor acetaminophen could touch the pain. The only pain relief I managed was from ice packs. I also have tendinitis and calcification; perhaps that&#8217;s why. However, the pain&#8217;s been gone for many days now.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/152120.php\">medicalnewstoday.com<\/a>\n<\/p><p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/320495.php\">medicalnewstoday.com<\/a><\/p>\nJack of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oracletutoring.ca\">Oracle Tutoring by Jack and Diane,<\/a> Campbell River, BC.\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Self-tutoring about joint health: the tutor does some research about bursitis.
