PY - 2019 T2 - The Color Atlas and Synopsis of Family Medicine, 3e AB - A 50-year-old man presents with swelling in his posterior right elbow for the last 2 months. He does not have pain at rest but does have discomfort when he rests his elbows on his desk at work. He denies any trauma or fevers. Figure 103-1 demonstrates a 5-cm fluctuant "goose egg" swelling over the olecranon process that is not warm and is mildly tender to palpation. He has full range of motion of 0–150 degrees. His olecranon bursitis was treated with ice, compression, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and activity modification to avoid leaning on his elbow.
