6-8 drops of oregano essential oil mixed with a carrier oil such as or coconut, rub directly into effected area. This remedy worked so quickly, within 15-20 minutes. I was amazed. I later found many testimonies of oregano oil for arthritis, bursitis, fibromyalgia.

Potato

Years ago my dad had hip pain. He was a diesel mechanic and stood on his feet all day. He worked with an older man who told him, "The next time your wife goes to the store, have her to get you the smallest sweet potato she can find. Then stick it in you hip pocket. " My mom had me to search out a small potato and put in the basket. My dad did the pocket thing and he said he did get relief from his pain. A few weeks later he walked in the door from work and said, "Here, catch. " He tossed something at me and said, "What is that?" I caught it and looked closley at it. It didn't look like anything I had really seen before. I said, "A rock?" He said, "No, guess again. " I looked at some more and saw there were wrinkles in it, so I said, "A nut?" He said "No, give up?" I couldn't guess what it was and then he told me it was the sweet potato after being in his pocket for at least a month. That thing looked and felt like a river rock! My dad kept a sweet potato in his pocker for some time after that and after a while the pain in his hip disappeared AND he no longer had to go to the doctor to have his shoulder scraped with bursitis. Ted, care to speculate as to why this worked?

Swiss Cheese, Beer
Posted by Dominick (Somers, New York) on 10/04/2012
Back in the early 70's when I was in my forties, I was recuperating from shoulder bursitis (had been given oral cortisone), but still had slight pain. One afternoon, I had a swiss cheese sandwich (on white bread) with a glass of beer, and suddenly noticed my pain was completely gone and never returned. A doctor friend said he had heard of this happening before. The cheese was probably domestic, and the beer was canned (maybe Piel's "Real Draft" brand). Don't know why this worked, but some chemist may find some good use in this experience.

A few year ago I was diagnosed with calcific bursitis (13mm) on my shoulder. Of course you must check your trace elements and try to rebalance them (that is the key for all health issues). Apart from this, what I did that made it disappear in one year's time was:
1. accupuncture 2. chinese phytotherapy (plant extracts under the name of Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang) and 3. chiropractor sessions to straighten my back and shoulder massages (rather painful actually, but a few seconds per session is a small price to pay for the benefits).
Turmeric Tea, Stretching
Posted by Ella (Newcastle-Upon-Tyne ) on 07/15/2018

These things seem to help with my hip bursitis.
Ibuprofen in the short term.
Green tea with a quarter teaspoon of turmeric powder, ground black pepper and a teaspoon of honey added and stirred. This had a noticeable effect. One or two of these drinks per day seems to be enough.
Gentle stretching exercises and squatting on the floor in the foetus position for five minutes. This seems to help too.
The most useful piece of advice I can offer, however, is to abstain from twisting whilst bending or picking something up. Never bend and twist at the same time.

Vegemite

I had bursitis in my hip for months. My Gp told me to exercise (walk and swimming). With little effect I saw a naturapath and end result was sugggested to eat vegemite spread on cracker biscuits or grainy bread and winter put 1 heaped tsp stirred in casseroles etc. After a few days my bursitis is pain free and after continual use I find that my arthritis in my right hip has improved heaps. I continue to eat vegemite. I'm swimming training more often in summer these days and find that my arthritis is still there but better.

Sorry left out the result that is if you have more ongoing pain, before trying cortizone injections, use VItB12 injection through your doctor. A friend of mine did just that every few months and has found other health problems improve. He also loves his vegemite now!
Vitamin B12

Dr. Jonathon V. Wright says that taking 1000 mcg. shot of B12 every day until the pain goes away and then a couple more to make sure you have enough, always works.
Vitamin B12, Pecans

My friends' chiropractor told her this remedy and she passed it on to me. After each meal take a handfull of pecans (enough to cover your palm) and eat them along with a B6 phospate. I couldn't do this since I HATE all nuts, so I began by grinding them up, but then found you can buy them already ground. I take two tablespoonsful in a small amound of water, along with a bit of grapefruit juice (doesn't taste so bad this way), along with the B6 phospate after each meal. It took about a month before I started to see results, but it worked! Bursitis in my hip is gone and I only do the treatment now about once a day. I've added in ACV and I'm sure that will keep it away.
White Vinegar
Posted by Sundries (Orange County, New York) on 05/22/2018

I had very bad knee bursitis. I read about the apple cider vinegar cures, but all I had was white vinegar. Finally, it hurt bad enough I was willing to try it. I put some 5% white vinegar (generic, cheap stuff) on a paper towel, on my knee for 10 minutes. I was AMAZED at how quickly it helped! I did this 2-3 times a day for a week. I also took aspirin after I read it kills fungus (candida). Aspirin really helped with the pain. I did the castor oil packs (castor oil on paper towels, wrap with plastic wrap, heating pad for 1 hour, 4x day) when it was at its worse - they did seem to really help the pain when it was swollen; once the swelling was down the castor oil packs didn't seem to have much effect, but the vinegar still did!
When I finally got to the store, I bought apple cider vinegar, but it did not seem to have as much effect as the white vinegar. The white vinegar really took the heat away, and it brought the swelling down. I used it FULL STRENGTH, 5%. I read online, all these warnings to never use it full strength, so I tried it watered down, but it did nothing at all!!!
