Best Bursitis Poems

I once was fast and so athletic. Bad afflictions? I had none.
Measles, mumps (the normal things). Youth was so much fun.

Then came my childbearing early 20’s. Had a girl and then a boy.
Affliction borne for but a day and then you’re left with joy!

Pregnancy discomforts,...

I feel I have appendicitis,
Or a bad case of bursitis,
And I think I need another tonsillectomy.
I'm sure I got a staph infection
From a tetanus injection
While I was prepping for a hemorrhoidectomy.
I've got cataracts and shingles,
When I cough my kidney jingles,
And my muscle tone's diminished due...

Topics of conversation seem to change as we approach maturity.
As kids we talked of love - now it's lumbago and social security!
It once was enlightening to simply discuss the weather,
But now it's a litany of their ills when oldsters get together!

When a teen we bragged...

Age is just a number 
It's not a true sign
that one who is a senior 
is not in their right mind

Age is just a number 
it does not matter all that much
as long as you're a child of God 
you will feel His merciful touch

I've...

I looked into the mirror and this is what I saw
Overweight, bloated and extremely out of shape
Put me in a purple shirt
And I'd look just like a grape
The time had come to buckle down
It was time to go get fit
There's not a better time to...

I've got aches and pains and chills and blaines,
Arthritis, bursitis and more.
If it weren't for this darn sciatica,
I'm sure it would hurt even more....

The “Itis” Brothers
(Arthritis, Bursitis, Tendonitis)
Written: by Miracle Man

The “Itis” brothers, have a quite familiar name,
Arthr, Burs, and Tendon have garnered worldly fame.

All three have visited me, two had a short stay,
after medical encouragement they were driven away.

Sensing they weren’t welcome they chose to leave,
but...

I've got aches and pains and chills and blains,
Arthritis, Bursitis and more.
If it weren't for this darn Sciatica,
I'm sure it would hurt even more.

I have dizzy spells, sometimes I hear bells,
I see colors and floaters galore.
Can't move my left shoulder, guess I'm getting older,
I can't...

Whose concerns are elbow germs?
The bugs we cannot see?
We wash our face and scour both hands
But hinge joint ligaments
Receive no such sentiment
Soaps' a stranger to our winged tips
Located somewhere between the hips
Fractures, aches, arthritis
Funny bones, bumps and bursitis
But elbow germs invite no press
Which is why...

I once worked with a youth who had gingivitis
Twenty years younger yet she already had arthritis

Pretty enough in spite of her dermatitis
She so craved attention we all thought caused by meningitis

Winters seemed worse with time off due to bronchitis
Bouts in hospital for appendicitis and diverticulitis

Regularly...

Ma and Pa don't get around a great deal much anymore.
If they pine to cut a rug, they claim their health is mighty poor!
Used to be that they were the swingingest pair around;
Now with all their maladies, to their hearth they're bound!

Ma likes Mexican fare...

Grandma’s aches affected her sleep;
She often made the help weep.
But at least she was regal -
Until pot was made legal.

She ditched Big Pharma
And moved to California
Now she takes pot
For every ailment she’s got

Indica for sciatica
CBD oil for inner turmoil
On sativa she’s a diva;
says it helps...

The first time I met Mei Is Woe, I felt so badly, I begged our co-workers to give up a sick day in the sick day fund, not realizing they had done that so many times, it would not be an easy collection.

Our selfish co-workers...

‘Twas Christmas Eve, and grumpy Ana had
a crazy dream. She dreamed she was a tot
on Christmas! She and her sis had been bad,
so presents from their dad were not a lot!

The decorations were not on the tree.
There were no snack cans either with their treat.
Her...

I don't even think about my Arthritis,
Since it was eclipsed by the pain of Bursitis;
And even that barely rates a mention,
Since my neuralgia over rides it's retention.

My fallen arches I barely notice,
Since the varicose veins in my legs diagnoses,
The reason I reach for a sleeping...
