<snip> I also had a problem with bursitis a couple of years ago. I crashed while mountain biking on the Slickrock Trail in Moab and tore the bursa sac in my elbow. It was literally shredded and the fluid drained down my arm as I finished the ride-looked pretty bad but wasn't real painful. I was very concerned about the impact on paddling and xc skiing when the elbow got very sore the next day. For several months I couldn't even lean on it at all. Luckily it turns out that the bursa sac can repair itself and my elbow is back to normal- other than a little extra "material" around the bone. Sometimes time can heal. Good luck.
