In this episode of The Spinal Truth, Dr. Caleb Slater and co-host Chris Titus break down one of the most misdiagnosed conditions in modern medicine—bursitis. If you've ever been told you have bursitis in your shoulder, hip, knee, or elbow, there's a good chance that diagnosis is flat-out wrong. Dr. Slater explains why most doctors rush to this label, what true bursitis actually looks like, and how to tell if your symptoms are really coming from your spine instead.

We cover:

• What a bursa is and why it's often wrongly blamed for pain

• Why numbness, tingling, or referred pain means it's not bursitis

• The red flags of a misdiagnosis

• How nerve issues can mimic and even cause bursitis symptoms

• What treatment actually works—and what's a waste of time

• Why even cortisone injections can mislead you

👉 If you've been stuck in pain and told it's "just bursitis," this episode will open your eyes—and maybe save you from unnecessary procedures.
