What is Tendonitis?

 

A tendon is a flexible inelastic cord of strong fibrous collagen tissue attaching a muscle to a bone. Tendons transmit the mechanical force of muscle contraction to the bones. Tendonitis is the inflammation or irritation of a tendon and this condition results in tenderness around the impacted joints and pain. Tendonitis mostly impacts the joints where mobility is higher or there or also on weight-bearing joints.

While tendonitis can impact any of your joints, It is most frequent on the shoulders, elbows, wrists, elbows and heels.

 

Some common names for hamstring tendonitis issues are as follows

 

  • Tennis elbow
  • Golfer’s elbow
  • Pitcher’s shoulder
  • Swimmer’s shoulder
  • Jumper’s knee

 

Most instances of hamstring tendonitis may be treated with drugs, physiotherapy for tendonitis and a good rest for the pain to subside. If tendinitis contributes to the rupture of a tendon and is intense, the patient may require surgery.

Tendons exist throughout the human entire body and link your muscles such as on shoulders, elbows and your knees.

 

The symptoms of hamstring tendonitis are

 

  • Pain at the tendon of the area impacted – esp. around the  knee, shoulder or elbow that gets worse when one proceeds
  • Difficulty transferring movement to the fascia
  • Since a grating or crackling feeling with every tendon movement
  • Swelling, occasionally with warmth or discolouration
  • A bulge across the tendon

Tendons are bands of fibre that link the muscles to the bone. Overuse of the tendon can lead to inflammation or irritation, which leads to mobility in the joint and pain. When utilizing the tendon, you could notice a sound.

 

Prevalent forms of tendonitis

 

  • Lateral/medial epicondylitis also called tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow also affects the elbow joint
  • Patellar tendonitis affects the tendon that connects the kneecap to the shinbone
  • Achilles tendonitis is localized in the back and sides of the heel and the lower portion of this calf
  • Rotator cuff tendonitis affects the shoulder joint
  • De Quervain’s tendonitis, a wrist and thumb tendonitis which frequently appears in young mothers carrying their infant, or in people who work in a workplace

The faster one gets tendonitis treated, the quicker is the recovery and regain of flexibility and strength. The physician might advise ice pack application to the impacted area three or four times every day, for 20 – minute duration. Additionally, one needs to ice the region immediately after any activity that aggravates pain (e.g. -tennis or jogging). To alleviate swelling and pain, the physician may recommend aspirin or a different non-prescription anti-inflammatory medicine, for a few weeks. One may have to rest the region for a couple of days to give recovery time to the body. For instance, individuals with golfer’s elbow should rest their elbow for a month. An antibiotic is suggested if an infection is a reason for the tendonitis.

 

Based upon the location and seriousness of tendonitis, one might require temporary splinting, bracing or a sling (such as tendonitis at the upper extremity). But it is necessary to regularly gently move the joint to prevent landing with a rigid or suspended joint. This is esp. essential for tendonitis involving the shoulder.

 

For serious cases of tendonitis, the physician may need to inject a corticosteroid medication or local anaesthetic. She or he may consult with a therapist to get more technical remedies that impact area specific, such as heating treatments using water treatment or ultrasound, friction massage to enhance mobility. The physical therapist will steer you through a rehab program which will allow regaining motion, strength, and function. The duration of time for rehab depends on the seriousness and the kind of tendonitis. For instance, epicondylitis and Achilles tendonitis may need months to resolve.

 

Surgery is rarely required to treat tendonitis. It is reserved for cases where limb injury does not improve despite therapy and which doesn’t respond to other kinds of therapy.
