Tendonitis 1

A tendon is a flexible fibrous tissue – a cord of strong, like a rope. It connects your muscles to your bones and let us move our limbs.

Tendinitis is the inflammation of a tendon or its sheath.

Its pain occurs more frequently in cold weather and is most common around shoulders, elbows, wrists, forearm, thumb, knees, hip, lower calf and heels.

Most common Types of tendonitis are

  • Achilles tendinitis – an overuse injury of the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connects calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to your heel bone.
  • Golfer’s elbow – a condition that causes pain where the tendons of your forearm muscles attach to the bony bump on the inside of your elbow.
  • Patellar tendinitis – can cause pain in the tendon below the kneecap.
  • Tennis elbow – overusing the muscles attached to your elbow.

Most Common Signs and Symptoms of tendonitis may include

  • Pain, often described as a dull ache, especially when moving the hurt limb or a joint
  • Tenderness or stiffness
  • Swelling
  • Redness and
  • Weakness of muscles

These symptoms may last for months or years.

Most common Risk factors & causes are

Overuse of a tendon a repetitive strain injury is the most common cause of tendonitis.

  • Age – As people get older, tendons become less flexible — which makes them easier to injure.
  • Gender – Achilles tendinitis occurs most commonly in men.

Repeated motions

  • Obesity and tight calf muscles also can increase tendon strain.
  • Running in worn-out shoes or hilly terrain can increase risk of Achilles tendinitis.
  • Sudden increase in amount or difficulty of training
  • Hard surfaces, such as concrete or gym floors
  • Too little recovery time after an injury or too little time to get used to the activity again after time off
  • Certain medical conditions such as diabetes, psoriasis, hypertension can increase the risk of tendinitis.
  • Use of certain medications may increase the risk such as
