When this happens, a painful swelling develops at the back of the elbow. This swelling is olecranon bursitis. CAUSES. Trauma, such as hitting the elbow or falling on the back of the elbow, can lead to this condition. People who lean their elbows against hard surfaces can develop this problem over time.
Trauma: A hard blow to the tip of the elbow can cause the bursa to produce excess fluid and swell. Prolonged pressure: Leaning on the tip of the elbow for long periods of time on hard surfaces, such as a tabletop, may cause the bursa to swell. Typically, this type of bursitis develops over several months.
