A member asked:
I'm having rotator cuff pain, previously diagnosed as bursitis. is there any effective home treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Home remedies have little benefit other than time. The bursa can easily be injected with cortisone which almost always resolves the issue.
