How To Treat Ruptured Elbow Bursa Sac ?

I believe I have ruptured the elbow bursa sac on my right elbow. Fluid has accumulated in the area about the size of a ping pong ball. There is little to no discomfort other than a slight tightness due to the fluid accumulation. Are there any home remedies for treating this condition?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that at one hand you are talking about the ruptured bursa and at other hand you are asking for home remedy how come this could be possible, in my opinion it is advisable to consult the surgeon to get it confirm and if this is a same condition as you said then this would need to the surgical intervention, have a nice day.
