Official Title: Improvement in Function and Pain Due to Subacromial Bursitis in Relationship to Dose of Triamcinolone Acetonide and Methylyprednisolone

Brief Summary: It is currently unknown whether or not the improvement in pain and function related to a "steroid shot" for shoulder pain due to subacromial bursitis is important. This study seeks to determine whether 20 mg or 40 mg of either triamcinolone or methylprednisolone significantly affect improvement in shoulder pain 6 weeks after injection.
