Elbow

I went to see the doctor today, because my elbow is still swollen. He agreed it was bursitis, like this:

I'm going back next week, so he can drain it, with a local anaesthetic first and a steroid injection afterwards.

should only be 2, you can inject the steroid through the same needle that was used for aspiration.
