Elbow (Olecranon) Bursitis. Elbow bursitis occurs in the olecranon bursa, a thin, fluid-filled sac that is located at the boney tip of the elbow (the olecranon). There are many bursae located throughout the body that act as cushions between bones and soft tissues, such as skin.

The most commonly involved joints are those near the ends of the fingers, at the base of the thumb, neck, lower back, knees, and hips. Joints on one side of the body are often more affected than those on the other. Usually the problems come on over years. It can affect work and normal daily activities.
Unlike other types of arthritis, only the joints are typically affected. The formation of hard nobs at the middle finger joints (known as Bouchard's nodes ) and at the farther away finger joint (known as Heberden's node) are a common feature of OA in the hands.
