What Is Elbow Bursitis and Why Support Matters
Elbow bursitis, also called olecranon bursitis or "Popeye elbow," occurs when the small fluid-filled sac (bursa) at the tip of your elbow becomes inflamed. This can result from repetitive motion, injury, prolonged pressure, or infection. Common symptoms include:
Swelling at the back of the elbow
Pain and tenderness
Discomfort when bending or leaning on the elbow
Proper support with a bursitis elbow brace can help reduce swelling, protect the joint, and speed up recovery.
How an Elbow Bursitis Brace Helps
Using an elbow bursitis brace provides multiple benefits:
Reduces Swelling: Gentle compression limits fluid buildup in the bursa sac.
Eases Pain: Relieves pressure and discomfort during movement.
Protects the Elbow: Cushions the joint from further irritation or injury.
Supports Mobility: Helps you stay active while recovering.
Whether you're dealing with mild discomfort or a severe flare-up, bracing is a proven way to manage symptoms effectively.
