hi, thank you for your query. Your condition is that of olecranon bursitis or popeye s elbow.the medication given by your doctor was to decrease the infection in the bursitis.but it seemslike the infection hasn t gone down completly. For treatment The NHS (National Health Service, UK) recommends PRICEM - a self-care management approach. PRICEM stands for: Protection Rest Ice Compression Elevation Medication like pain killers If swelling and pain do not respond to these measures after 3 to 4 weeks, your doctor may recommend removing fluid from the bursa and injecting a corticosteroid medication into the bursa. Corticosteroid injections usually work well to relieve pain and swelling.The bursa usually grows back as a non-inflamed, normally functioning bursa over a period of several months. thank you, wishing you good health
