What causes capsulitis?

Answer by  LizaJ (19)

Capsulitis can occur anywhere in the body but I have had it in the foot. The capsular ligaments are very tough like and when they are inflamed, it is extremely painful. I had to wear low heeled shoes. Rest helps but if it is too painful you might have to ask the doctor for anti-inflammatory medications.
