Having suffered bursitis in my left hip and now suffering from tendinitis in my right elbow, I absolutely understand the amount of pain involved. I have found that wearing good quality runners with good support made a tremendous difference. I have a pair that I use as my 'house shoes'--they have never seen the outdoors and I don't have to worry about dragging dirt around the house. It is surprising what a difference they make--to my posture, my leg fatigue, my lower back pain--even while sitting.
